I was thrilled by President Trump's State of the Union Address and I didn't even watch it live. I could not abide having to suffer Nancy Pelosi's haughty visage for that long. I read the text, viewed excerpts and enjoyed commentary on Fox; no sense bothering with thoroughly predictable MSM screed . Americans, we've got a President, we surely do and he did himself and we who believe in him mighty proud that night. His detractors, true to form, have been shown to be as so many petulant microbes.
I rejoiced at his ringing denunciation of socialism and at his declaration that we will never be cursed by its dictatorial sway. How the Infanta Alexandra's eyes burned with vindictive intent at that; how very much she has to learn in this hard world outside of her dreamy leftist haven.
His mere mention alone of the N.Y. Legislature majority's disgraceful self congratulatory ovation (they cheered, mind you!) after its hideous sanctioning of extended baby killing measures speaks for itself and reflects humiliation beyond description on those New Yorkers who empowered these terribly wrong headed people. It puts the President squarely on the right side of an issue which could be decisive in 2020 and is sure to provoke a veritable avalanche of hyperbolic Cuomoblovo from our preposterous Governor.
President Trump's condemnation of antiSemitism, with its implied support for the heroic Israelis, was magnificently complemented by his account ,dramatically endorsed by Holocaust survivors in the audience, of the advent of American troops assuring them, after their unspeakable travails at the hands of totalitarian savages, of reunion with civilized humans and of their deliverance.
I'm reminded of the outrage I felt for the nonetheless courteous WWII vets who had had to countenance the tawdry and presumptuous presence of Slick Willy at their 50th anniversary commemorations when I read of our President's moving expression of genuine love and gratitude for such immortals in the very audience that night. It was a surpassingly redeeming assertion of how the real America cherishes them.
His rejoinder to the doubtful on "our triumph over Communism, our giant leaps of science and discovery and our unrivaled progress toward equality and justice . . . " was a happy warrior's confirmation of faith in his, yes flawed but still eminently worthy country in a chamber hosting also his sour minded opposition, which shamed itself beyond measure with its characteristically childish bad will and bad humor.
His conclusion approached a standard set by our most exalted orators: ". . . rekindle the bonds of love and loyalty and memory that link us . . . keep America first in our souls . . . ."
Well done Mr. President, well done sir! What a signal service you have done in this telling assurance of your belief, for which you have energetically and courageously demonstrated such determined devotion, in our country's worth. Let the real America redouble its resolve to support you without stint. Jack

I couldn't have said it better myself! Really I couldn't. It's a shame you didn't watch, because you would have been impressed by how much support Trump got from the Democrats in the room - no mean feat! It was a splendid, bridge-building speech, and I must admit watching it was bittersweet, because THAT was what the whole last two years should have been like: Trump delivering his optimistic, patriotic message to America, and America cheering him on. Alas, the deep state and the media had other ideas.
The socialism line was a superb addition, and it divided the Democrats in twain. I hope we'll have much more of that in the months to come. Of course, as Virginia is proving, the Dems are pretty good at dividing (and destroying) themselves...
Dr. Waddy: Yeah, I messed up by not watching; I'll try to learn from that. The MSM was put to shame by the President's masterful presentation; no amount of disingenuous spin by them can undo the good he did.
Talk about visages: AOC's was one of unadulterated hatred. There's a budding Pol Pot if I ever saw one. Her absurd "Green New Deal" would have garnered his approval and I'm sure he would have been generous with advice as to its summary imposition on an unforgiveably recalcitrant society. I mean after all . . . .
