The strongest act of resistance the Democrats could do at the State of the Union would be to sit through the whole speech but sometimes frown and shake their heads 💪

I think it’s about seeing how disruptive Republicans can be when they’re the opposition; Democrats messaging/fundraising off Trump being the end of democracy; And now the U.S.’ economic collapse, support for an enemy - Russia - and loss of allies.
Call them and tell them that, not the internet. Tired of people thinking they know what should be done and telling everyone except the actual people who you're upset with.
If that was there best what the fuck were they voted into office for? I would have done more than shake my damned head. I would have worn a bright ass rainbow cored suit and blew a foghorn every time Trump opened his mouth until they had to have a shit ton of people forcefully remove me 😠 do better!
We need a new party. I am so disgusted. That was unbelievable. I kept thinking the democrats have something up their sleeve. Nope. I’m enraged at all parties right now
Yeah, that fact that only one Dem got thrown out infuriates me. They ALL should have been screaming at the top of their lungs causing absolute chaos to drown out the lies.
Democrats should be fucking ashamed of themselves.
His bloviating and grandstanding aside, can anyone explain why the Dems wouldn’t stand for the kid with cancer, the bereaved family, or the rescued hostage?
I mean, don’t stand for Trump, I get it, but for those people, not standing makes us look cold and like whiney toddlers.
Democrats have always been cowards, and Republicans have always been crooks. We wouldn't be where we are now if the Dems had any backbone and the Repubs had any morals! There is no saving this Country and we really don't deserve saving at this point!
They don’t want anything to get in the way of their insider trading when the market is crashing and there are bargains to be had…check back in two years when they start debating trans women in women’s sports.
Why don't they attatch a lie detector to Trump and broadcast its result live on social media while he is pontificating. I bet it'll get great huge ratings.
Keep beating up the Dems. That helps to elect Nazis. Get real. Maybe Democrats need to actually show up and VOTE. DEM OR NAZI. This isn't complicated. Tell the Stein voters, those "Genocide Joe" clowns, and the far left that decided to stay home.
It is not enough when Democratic leaders are running after Trump and disagree. A leader is supposed to lead. If you are going to take the bull by the horns, you have to go ahead of the bull, not run after. It is possible even if you have to deal with a president. It has been done before…
They could have caused so much disruption and force them to be removed. It would have made great tv (ya know...like Trump bragged about when he knifed Zelenskeyy in the back?)!!!
It would have made it to where Trump had no order, no control (which that man child hates).
They could #BringDaRuckus, let the country know they stand for them. They could honor their oaths of office to defend the constitution against domestic, and foreign, enemies by any means necessary.
Older Dems should heed Harvey Dent’s words - be hero’s, stop waiting until they’re villains too.
They already shown they dont stand for the American people, which is why the American people elected Trump to begin with. They're just gonna come across as phony.
NPR, BBC, Guardian, independent journalists (eg yellin, cox Richardson), my representatives, people in my network who are both registered republican and democrats and work in a range of sectors (including local and national govt, manufacturing, national security, finance, education, ag)
The US doesnt know what resiting means. The country is one big lap dog...until someone takes one for the team you all can just sit here and post...which is doing nothing.
Some did walk out. It was a small amount, but their act of protest does not seem to be getting much coverage. We need to find them and stand with them. Rep. Jasmine Crockett from Texas was one and she did post ....
Maybe instead of quietly walking out they should be shouting their damn heads off until they are dragged out. They’re spineless and useless, and they aren’t going to change.
The Democrats remind me of the farmer who holds the door open to the chicken house allowing the fox to enter, and then says, “I didn’t actually think he would eat my chickens!”
People need to understand that the dems are not cut out for resisting trump. They either don't want to and are complicit or don't know how. Either way, they need to step down and let someone else fight. Otherwise, we need to go third party.
It wasn’t all frowning and shaking heads. Warren did spend a bit of time staring at her cell phone, and I saw a few others just staring off into space.
Are they all secret republicans? Did they all make a bts deal where dems pretend to act mad but don’t actually do anything? What is this “strategy” of being asleep at the wheel? They really seem to leave us with the impression that we don’t even need to bother voting again.

You’d think the Dems would/could do more than 😟
They should have caused so much chaos that the address would have been an utter failure. Plus it would've shown the people that they have a spine.
But no...
You can lead a horse to water...
People are calling and responding to Dems asking on BlueSky what they should do. Most Dems continue to do nothing meaningful.
Pathetic weak fucks.
Democrats should be fucking ashamed of themselves.
They will only get the message when they get planted in the ground.
Their families are fair game too. They wan to talk? Make them shut the fuck yo for good.
and boo
and make jerking off gestures
When they're forcibly removed, they're gonna be like, 'Maaan this sure is darn inconvenient."
I mean, don’t stand for Trump, I get it, but for those people, not standing makes us look cold and like whiney toddlers.

Dems have been severely punished at the polls when they try to do ANYTHING, but Cons get away with murder.
Good grief. 🤦🏽♀️

I'll frown, but shaking my head feels leftist
They should have all walked out with Greene

Yeah, we're fucked.
We need politicians who are not in it for the money
