635 Days to the 2020 election and 713 Days to Inauguration Day
My reaction to the State of the Union address, while it was going on, was, “Is he still talking?”
Not being able to listen to his voice for more than a few seconds at a time we tuned in every so often. He seemed to go on forever. When he was done the commentators really didn’t know what to say. They were left scrambling to describe what they had just heard. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez put her finger on the most important thing about it and that was that she heard nothing specific. There was no policy, no detail.
Then there were the absurd things. We can’t have partisan investigations. Right. Tell that to Hillary who had to endure how many investigations into something she had nothing to really do with what happened at Benghazi? Or tell it to Bill, who was being investigated for, along with Hillary, a land deal that went bust that had nothing to do with the illegal stuff their partner did years later. Ot tell that to Hillary who kept a private email server and was only discovered because it hadn’t been hacked like the one at the State Department, and all the while the people doing the investigating were using private email servers.
Okay, no partisan investigations, just oversight and letting the wheels of justice do what they are supposed to do – bring crooks to justice. Oh wait, what if there is a partisan investigation? There will be no legislation? Is that a threat?
Same old, same old, from the school yard bully.
Stacy Abrams gave a wonderful rebuttal. She brought up every day working people’s issues. She brought up founding principles. She, like Ocasio-Cortez, is a breath of fresh air in a stale and roomful of mostly vapid vain people.

PS Nothing Need be Said (it’s obvious)

Where do you get that kite?
I didn’t listen, I use couldn’t! The two memorable sentences were the dumbest thing out of his mouth!
The next thing that said it all was the kid who was supposedly bullied because his name was Trump, fell dead asleep!
Stacie Abraham on the other hand was absolutely delightful!
