Al Green: A congressional Democrat’s TV performance that damaged the leftist cause.

The American Spectator 

 "Americans, as seen by the polls giving Trump overwhelming approval for his speech, are loving this. The Swamp and the media — not to mention Rep. Al Green — hated it."

"If you’re a Republican, ya gotta love it.

"There is the president of the United States, Donald J. Trump by name, standing at the podium in the U.S. House of Representatives, delivering a decidedly serious address to the Congress and the nation.

"And as if he was secretly on the Trump payroll, Texas Democrat Al Green jumped up and started raving like a lunatic. Giving the nation a close-up look at the dismal state of his Democrat Party in Congress.

"He was joined by his fellow House Democrats, who could not find it in their freezing cold hearts to stand and applaud a cancer-stricken thirteen-year-old young man whose ambition in life is to be a policeman and was made an honorary member of the Secret Service.

"That young man, Americans learned, was one Devarjaye “DJ” Daniel. And from his surprised, wide-eyes, young DJ — an African American — had no idea he was to be singled out by the president, much less that he would receive his official ID as a Secret Service agent from Sean Curran, the director of the Secret Service. So overwhelmed was young DJ that he gave the director a heartwarming hug.

"And the Democrats’ response?

"To sit on their hands and turn a cold shoulder to this cancer-stricken boy whose dream is to serve his country.

"And so went the Democrats’ response to the other guests in the House gallery with riveting stories to tell. Including the mother of the murdered young University of Georgia student Laken Riley — murdered in cold blood by an illegal migrant.

"Have they no shame? Obviously, no.

"Then there was the irony coming from Democratic Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-N.M.). As Trump entered the chamber, Stansbury can be seen standing behind him, holding a sign that reads “This is NOT normal.” . . .
