Despite disagreements and the fact that these pagents are insufferable, that was as good as you could have hoped. And for a SOTU...

It’s hard to believe Trump will do anything when it is thing naked. This is legalized drug dealing by corporations.


The drug manufacturers sponsor both sides of the aisle.

Yes, but democrats in state governments are coming for them. It’s just congress that is spineless right now. Exceptionally so.

Tom Brokaw pointed out a significant omission from the speech. Although the Las Vegas shooting was briefly mentioned, there was no discussion of a school shooting crisis or anything like that. I wouldn't expect a fully fleshed out plan for how to solve the problem, but the topic was swept under the rug.

That was a fantastic speech -- one that is going to haunt democrats. No other republican would have had the balls to get up there and unapologetically dismantle one anti-American democrat position after another and then steal their lunch money on some easy bipartisan issues.

He didn’t address Russia once. We have another election coming up and there was no discussion about how they would prevent interference or propaganda. The omissions speak louder than anything else.

I think he called Russia an adversary.

And does Trump a huge favor in the election by assuring they were released a week before the election. If he was anti-Trump, he sure did a great job screwing over Trumps opponent.

Seriously sitting on the Clinton emails is nothing. They turned out to be nothing. By the way, Trumps people are using private email servers. Where are the investigations into those private email servers?

We can’t know what crimes where committed or what American service members were put in danger with at least 5 investigations. One full Benghazi’s worth. It is the only way to know.

I admire your optimism, but I certainly don't share it.

I really want to see this as the Democrats intentionally trying to submarine another dynastic candidate from ever being president but I know it's the opposite.

Let's investigate every aspect of trumps emails as well as every person at all related to him or who in any way worked with him for the next 2 years, and then maybe we'll know

What is even anti-American these days? It feels like the only constant is that you have to worship the armed forces and the flag.

Not wanting to “protect” American culture by limiting immigration is going to be “Un-American” soon.

But some folks are just in this for the sick burns to the other side. It’s pro sports to them.

The only anti American thing in politics is the republican party that has literally sold our country out to russia, and the voter base like you that are complicit with it or even cheer it on.
