"While they were slow to stand for some things, some Democrats refused to stand at all for a variety of the Trump administration’s accomplishments. In no particular order, here are six moments when many Democrats did not stand during the State of the Union address:" . . .
Democrats Rashida Tlaib, Tim Ryan Storm Out of SOTU Address: ‘It’s All Fake’ "Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Tim Ryan (D-OH) and stormed out of President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address on Tuesday evening.
“ 'I walked out of that speech. The lies, the bigotry, and the shameless bragging about taking away food stamps that people depend on to live—it was all beneath the dignity of the office he occupies. Shame on this forever impeached president,” Tlaib wrote on Twitter after bolting from the lower chamber." . . .
SOTU: The unspeakable ungraciousness of the Democrats in Congress . . . "The most egregiously infuriating aspect of the night was the persistent despicable behavior of the Democrats who were in the room. They acted like small children, infantilized by their hatred of this president and their belief that Americans must be taken care of according to their specifications. They demeaned themselves with their pathetic behavior at an event like this SOTU speech by refusing to acknowledge any of this president's victories. A few of the usual suspects walked out during the speech, a feeble attempt to demonstrate their contempt. They are obviously both angry and embarrassed that their misguided attempt to impeach the president failed. But they should take their rage out on Reps. Adam Schiff, Jerry Nadler and Pelosi who truly failed them, not the president. All those Democrats who sat by and watched the Schiff show systematically destroy their own party are to blame for their own demise." . . .
Nancy Pelosi throws a public temper tantrum and other Democrat misbehavior . . . "As Trump began to speak, Pelosi began to perform a running pantomime behind his back. Rather than listen to Trump's speech, she leafed through the written speech he gave her. She also wriggled around in her chair, sucked her dentures, made disdainful faces, waved to people in the crowd, and generally behaved like an angry 15-year-old girl whose parents have forced her to attend a formal event. It was painful to watch the person who is third in line to the presidency behave in such a childish, rude manner." . . .
