Look at the Dems scurry out of the chamber -probably to go meet their compadres in the media to spin this amazing speech.

Endeavor to persevere.

But one thing that doesn't compute: Big corporate tax cuts, big middle class tax cuts, no entitlement cuts, big defense spending increase, $1 trillion infrastructure plan.

The math just doesn't work here.

It's called growth. Increasing the revenue base instead of rates.

... disgraceful, those Dems and the ones in white, not standing for the final ovation, some even bolting out the door like the very hounds of hell were on to them ... betting their heading to the hordes of press corps to be the first to strike up their usual idiotic rhetoric of self importance with no real references to anything of true value.

Thank you Mr President that was a stirring speech.

Reaching across to the Dems to say let's get it done ...

Someone turned on the lights and the cockroaches scurried!!! LMFAO!! Actually it's very sad...they are ALL a disgrace to their office and I hope the true Democrats of this country were taking note and remember this BULLSHIT when they get to the voting booths in the mid-terms next year.

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

... and there weren't too many "I"'s at all in that address ...

DJT's delivery was different tonight, he's got it.

Tried playing "POTUS Poker".

Drink a shot for every "I" and "ME" President Trump spoke.

I'm still sober as a judge...

Well, damn.

Chris Wallace on Fox:

It was probably the best speech I've heard Mr. Trump give...and one of the best speeches in this setting that I've ever heard from any president.

I really don't see what we need those guys for.

What good are they?

Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

What seemed conspicuously absent, based on the last eight years of State of the Union addresses, was a president claiming glory for everything and referencing "I" throughout the speech.
