I did not think I could dislike him any more than I already did. I was wrong.

For me it is his obvious demagoguery—every time I hear him speak it makes me cringe.
I can’t tolerate more than 30 seconds of this cross between Joseph McCarthy, Benito Mussolini, Dogberry, Baghdad Bob, Pennywise the Dancing Clown and the most doosh-nozzle-ish used-car salesman imaginable.
Because there are lies, damned lies and then there is Donald J. Trump.

How many Republicans applauded Obama for restoring the economy, putting people back to work and the incredible stock market ride? Obama did everything a Republican could ask for.

It's unfortunate that so many people are completely wrapped up in rationalizing their hatred of the President of The United States. Granted, he's done plenty to generate animosity. But lately, he's stepped up. For instance, his immigration proposal is a worthwhile proposal. So what, if he wants his wall... he's raising the bar on Dreamer benefits. It's a compromise!
I'm still not convinced his tax plan the right move, but I keep reading about corporations announcing capital improvement plans as a result of the new law.
IMO, he delivered the goods last night. According to CBS, 75% of SOTU watchers approved of the speech, including 43% of Democrats and 72% of independents. Yet, all over social media, liberals are complaining about last night's SOTU.
I guess some folks are gonna complain no matter what. C'est la vie.

The guy is a giant Hollywood facade. He is banging porn stars and the religious right is just eating up his holier than thou bible babble. Would be funny if it wasn't so absolutely pathetic. When is Melania going to dump the chump.
And where was Barron? Donald is a worthless parent. A father does stuff with his kid. Something, anything, gotta at least try. Anyone who has been a dad knows this instinctively. he should take parenting lessons from Obama
Locker nails it, the state of the union was just another political rally where he got to receive applause. Get real Jody, the event was pure politics, quit pretending it was something else. At least the Dems had the decency not to yell "You Lie" every time a lie spewed forth from Chump's Big Mac Hole

America is ripe for a civil war, Putin and the Chinese would love it.
The rightwhingers: I have been reading comments (some recent, some not so) from conservatives, right-wing ideologues, alt-right internet gurus, etc
Something to the effect of...
"Those liberal don't have guns, we'll clean up, we will slaughter those liberal snowflakes in a civil war."
Ah, but you see, with some exceptions, the right nuts have peas for brains.
The liberals have a more powerful weapon than guns… they have actual working intelligent brains and logic.
I am having fun, are you? And I await some senseless meme from… probably cosmic. Don't let me down Drain, I always need a good laugh.

Democrats should accept the wall as part of a deal. It will never get built anyway.

You expect these puppets to be good Dad's? I'd wager anyone who would want that position by definition wouldn't be a good parent/spouse/human-being.

Trump referred to himself ("I" or "we") 29 times last night in 1:20.
In Obama's first SOU address he referred to himself over 140 times in 1:09.
And you libtards say Trump is full of himself?

Also, decision-making is NOT something you learn in college.
how would you know?
where did you go to college and in what field did you get your bachelors degree in, Jody?
by the way....

"Yarr,. everything orange man says is evil!"
Yeah, this isn't Manichean in the least.

Here are a couple more unhinged responses, but this time form an MSNBC reporter (I'm starting to think the blue checkmark is a sign of mental retardation) and the ACLU who apparently have forgotten what the 'A' stands for.

It's all about the optics.
Who you point to moving through the crowd...the props in the audience during the speech...politicians comically trying to decide whether to stand while applauding...or decide how long to applaud...or to even applaud at all...posing for the optics, and most speeches during our lifetimes have been similar.
I saw a clip of the vulnerable Democrat from West Virginia starting to stand after one of Trumps comments. Halfway on his feet he looked around at his colleages, then quickly sat back down and slowed his clapping.
And speaking of optics...
Did Trump's team set up the optics of the Democrat response?
A white male, from a family of famous philanderers, who inherited great wealth.
A Kennedy, in front of a 60's broken down car, in a place called Fall River.
It's America. It's all entertainment.
