State of the Union Address Thread

[dkovic77]

Words don't mean anything, actions do!. Biden could tighten up on the parole system, promise to use the parole system for what it was intended to be used for.

Correct, calling half of America MAGA extremist is divisive, been his favorite talking point for 3 1/2 years.

If you have two eyes, two ears and half a brain you'd know that pure bullshit.

They all exist. Saying inflation is dropping is bullshit. What's dropping is the rate of increase, it's still at 20% cumulative over his 3 1/2 years, those prices for groceries are going to be with us for years to come.

Yah right. You care more about illegals over needy Americans and homeless vets. This border/ immigration policy is going to bite leftist in the ass.
No thought was put into Biden's immigration policy. Our people are dying in the streets.

Venezuelan street gangs are here to stay because they can't be repatriated, they don't want them back. Biden has already done the damage. He'll be long gone but the damage will live on for decades to come. 34 TRILLION IN DEBT AND YET THE LEFT WANTS TO BURDEN AMERICANS WITH MORE DEBT.

Nice deflection, wouldn't expect anything less from you.

Were you singing this debt song four years ago at this time?

Just curious.

HR-2 was left for dead by Schumer over a year ago. Last time I looked Schumer is a leftwing nut bag who runs that clown show of a senate and kudos to Mitch for being a Schumer surrogate.

And the recent version that would have had kept the Cheeto from his recent visit to the border waving at folks on the other side.

And no, we can’t believe it.

So you consider MS-13 in the same light as illegal migrants. Do yo really think you're pulling the wool over anyone's eyes. Trump's statement animals= MS-13 has been repeated a thousand times on all media platforms. You're nothing more than an ANTIFA wantobe. Nothing you post has any credibility.

OH! So what's all the hoopla about open borders then? So we can just make MS-13, Chapo and his boys naturalised citizens and then all murders will be done by responsible gun owners. Then we don't need walls or border security then, because everybody will be one big happy family.

Last time around it was MS-13 that was the "gang from hell". Now it's the Venezuelan gangs....wake me up when it gets back the Hells Angels...

Yes I was! I blame congress on both sides of the aisle for acting irresponsible and irrational on their spending atrocities.

It’s all of them you fuckwit! Hells angels are radical criminals so your point is one group is not enough of a problem let’s bring in foreigners to add to the problem.

No you don't.

You cheered the tax cuts that increased middle and lower income taxes but decreased taxes for the rich.

Oh please, find that for us…if it exists. Right as the Cheeto was signing the big tax cut…for the rich…but that was more than four years ago…you weren’t singing then I guess.

You were singing as they spent money trying to get a handle on the pandemic as freedom loving germ spreaders wanted to make things worse. I remember those rants.

 

[Fuzzy1975]

No! What I'm saying is that YOU don't have a clue to what diplomacy is all about. Trump's been pretty restrained. The left is OK with NATO going along for the ride and not paying their share. It pissed them off and too fucking bad! As a tax payer and our nation being 22 trillion in debt, you should be concerned yourself.

Yes I was! I blame congress on both sides of the aisle for acting irresponsible and irrational on their spending atrocities.

Why, yes he was, Here he is blaming Trump for adding to the debt, (post date Jan 11 2020) which was 20 trillion in 2017 and it was 26 Trillion in 2021 when Trump left office.

 

[Fuzzy1975]

When was the last post you mentioned ms-13? A foreign gang by the way...Hmmm such a major problem I am sure you have raised up the issue lately? How about gangs in general, when was the last time you brought that up?

 

[Philthy_Phil]

The trumptards are waiting to hear what they can complain about. I hear old Joe crushed it.

 

[Bn2f]

Much ado about nothing; a halftime speech to fire the team up when they are already behind by three touch downs and a pair of field goals...

Okay team, we've spotted them their mercy lints, now we're going for the jugular!

Oh boy! Pre-speech chocolate chip and sprinkles. What's this on top? Powdered sugar?

It was a perfect speech if you’re a left wing nut bag. Filled with promise he can’t keep. More division and yelling at republicans. Deep down for democrats the speech was more about could Biden make it through the whole speech. The democrats were jubilant by the fact he didn’t collapse during the speech. Such a low bar. All he promised was more of the same crap, failed to address open borders, foreign wars, excessive spending, high prices, high inflation, just another attack on corporations and the high court. Biden is a fool and a totally incompetent president appealing to his Marxist base, Sad . Lots of rhetoric but no substance, lots of promises but no plan. The speech did nothing more than alienate half the country. I wonder why he was late, oh I know, his leftist Hamas lovers were blocking his path to the big house. The only thing missing was Jeff Dunham propping up the Walter look alike angry old man. Who is Lincoln Riley?

Just to be clear... So we are back to arguing policy instead of mental capacity, right? Because I was prepared to start the day defending Biden getting lost going to the podium and mistaking Pelosi for Haley. But the wackadoodle, rape supporting crew now wishes to parse taxation and the border?

 

[icanhelp1]

No you don't.

Total bullshit, get your facts straight. People should be allowed to keep more of their earnings.

Congress appropriates funding. We had to also deal with economic shutdowns due to Covid. The correct way to spend was to avoid an economic collapse. Biden doesn’t have that reason, he just likes to spend.

Maybe people should be able to earn more? How about that?

“Both sides”

What is the interest on owing 26 trillion? That is what Biden had to address. BTW it's roughly this, in 2017 when Trump took office the interest was 60 Billion. When Trump left office the interest was 135 Billion. The debt interest more than doubled. So just because of Trump's 2017 tax break Biden has to deal with 75 Billion more each fiscal year. Boy what could the US have done if they saved that money...

 

[coati]

The Lit MAGAts had no idea what hit them. It took hours to pick themselves up off the floor.

And to think, their alter boy Mike Johnson was the one who picked the date for this speech, and the GOP chose a handmaiden for their rebuttal! What a setup!

After years of the GOP's Trust Fund Bully spouting insults and insurrection, Joe came out and punched him in the mouth. The GOP caved into the MAGAt insurrection, and now they have to live with that choice.

 

[BabyBoomer50s]

USC Trojan fans must have been shocked to hear their head football coach had transitioned to a woman and was then killed.

 

[adrina]

Especially the millionaires and billionaires amirite.

You support a law that raised taxes on the middle and lower income earners dumbass.

Drink!

Part of what I liked about the MILF’s republican rebuttal was that it was pre-written and so was off way point in contrast to Biden’s speech, and were simply the same old talking points bigly. She blamed the border on Biden which he was clear to point out that repubs killed the bill because trump wanted it to be an election issue. She also said something like we don’t need a demented and diminished president running the government, referring to Biden, who was anything but that in his speech. So, a swing and a miss. Next stop Only Fans?

 

[Bn2f]

That was such an angry, divisive and incoherent message last night, it was incredibly hard to watch

I was also a bit disappointed with the Republican response. I like Katie Britt a lot but they came across as very theatrical and overly dramatic. Perhaps she was trying to connect with women but it fell flat for me

Are you from Alabama? Tell us what you like about Katie Britt? What’s her senate legislative history?

CNN Poll: More than 6 in 10 SOTU viewers had a positive reaction to Biden’s speech​

Americans who watched on Thursday said, 62% to 38%, that the policies Biden proposed will move the US in the right direction, rather than the wrong direction. In a survey conducted before the speech, just 45% of those same people said Biden’s policies would move the US in the right direction.

Much of Biden’s improvement on this score came among political independents who watched the speech. Before the speech, 51% of independents expressed at least some confidence in Biden’s ability to carry out his duties, and that rose to 68% among the same group of independents after the speech. Perceptions of Biden’s ability to carry out the duties of the presidency did not change significantly among either Democrats or Republicans who tuned in.

It’s called politics. Welcome to 2024. As if the left hasn’t been doing this regarding Trump since the moment he first ran years ago

No. You are wrong. Just look through the comments on this thread in real time. There are none from the typical right wing numb nuts here. The allegation is that you had to wait for your pundits to tell you how to feel before commenting and you coming here the following morning is a perfect example of that.

Now, you have the perfect opportunity to prove me wrong. You can either tell me the accomplishments of one Katie Britt or you could go into details explaining the Republican position on anything Biden said last night. I don’t know! Impress me and explain the Republican position on the failed immigration bill.

I was talking about the right wing members who post here. Those on the left here don't have to wait to be told what to say.
