Fuck those signs. Fuck these democrats. We need all new people. I’m so fucking sick of the kid gloves tonight Nazis. JFC. Imagine meeting Hitler with a mean sign, like he fucking cares. He cares about his looks, and so standing up and distorting his speech should have been paramount.
Oh how polite & useless. The dem party is going to die because they just can’t get it thru their heads that being heard & sitting silently while being berated gets them nowhere….never has, never will. Confront the damned magas please.. don’t just sit like idiots.
WHY WERE THEY THERE!!
The best opposition is to ignore the behavior, period, full stop.
Instead, they fed the beast!
WHY DID THEY STAY after Al Green was removed to a chorus of immature ingrates??
Shameful to see them still think that we are BETTER than they are, and won't play dirty!
PLAY DIRTY!
As a lifelong Democrat who has never voted for a republican, I can unequivocally say that the Dems aren’t up for this fascist coup. Our side is into selling book tours, not into saving democracy. Schumer must go, Jeffries must go. Al Green is a MF hero. #StateoftheUnion
I had hoped and thought and prayed 🙏 the Democrats would have - should have walked out. All of them.
This golden opertunity was stupidly wasted.....
WTF
These Musk Steals signs are so important and I hope we all know why. Musk is embezzling money from the Treasury. It is the reason he installed hackers and not accountants. I suspect he is behind the crypto hack.
Praying they all walked out...
When it became clear to me by the 1st 30 min.. that was not going to happen... I had to change channels because I couldn't take anymore of the BS from that loser president.
Our government, as a whole, has failed the people. Democrats are sticking to decorum, which is why they're getting run over, while Republicans are just plain stupid.
We need to start our own government, this one is broken.
Yeah but Trump is sensitive enough(read pussy) to get really pissed they aren't respecting him. Now a few more should just get up and leave. Maybe one every 5 minutes until there are none. OR maybe all at once. Everyone has their own ideas of the best way to have an impact.
Why are the signs black and white... Absolutely not. They should have been a loud red!
Or, one by one, you guys should have walked out when a lied was told. This does nothing
So many hot house flowers in the democratic leadership in attendance at state of union tonight. No idea how to push back. Nice bidding signs though.
Al Green Rules!!
Trump likes a good show and even said this will be tv to watch. Make a big deal and do what most of you are suggesting and he gets that. By using signs not only are the American people getting the message but he doesn’t get the show he wants. Have to be smart with it!
They should have been loud and they should have all gotten themselves expelled one by one disrupting the entire evening. Dems are cowards. They are not going to save us.
Correct... Boooo
What's so difficult to do that...
It was a WTF moment for me, l was really disappointed...
Only 1 was it that truly voiced out... Only 1 - wow sad indeed.
Instead of using their hands, they should have used their feet and walked out when Rep. Green was ejected. I'm angered by the kid gloves that the Dems are wearing. Now is the time to don boxing gloves. Fight the fight and stop just giving piecemeal lip (and arm) service.
Shame Democrats attending a speech that disparaged them and party. Choosing to hold signs, wear colored emblems, stand up/speak out, walk out, would and did make for congressional GOP, rightwing media, MAGA supporter ire. Their time could've been more productive had they held in person town halls.
During prez address, opposing party should keep track of lies in as close to real time as possible. Once predetermined # of lies is reached, opposition party walks out of chamber. Setting predetermined #, opposition party telegraphs their intention to prez. No reason to sit listening to bullshit.
They sure will. They had a great entrance and they're keeping it up. I watched them and ignored the orange blob and his support group of right-wing radicals.
"Musk steals" is the most vanilla, obvious, ho-hum statement I can think of—and having zero Trump-specific paddles (like TRUMP IS A LIAR or TRUMP IS DELUSIONAL) let's him off the hook.
Again.
Why don’t they hear us? I don’t see a single Democrat supporting what they did unless they were in the group that walked out. Why isn’t Dem leadership listening to us?
Whose moronic idea was this? They spent money on those stupid little signs. There are so many members who could walk out now and gain a tv audience on the Capitol steps. Lost opportunity.
After reading the Brownshirts threw out Al Green after acting like MTG we decided to turn on the tv, on mute. I’m watching dems w/“Liar” signs as the bootlickers clap like seals. Jeffreys had told dems no signs, be quiet. He’s a fool.
As Musk is introduced and with every lie, Republicans express delight and laugh and point. Then they talk about unity???? This "speech" is an abomination.
Bless their hearts. This is the exactly why jack shit is being done to protect the collapse of democracy.
They could have just not shown up, not out of protest, but because they literally do not have any meaningful impact on legislation and their fight is a bit soft on crime.

Showing of signs... cmon do better.
Was there only 1 who really showed what resistance was????
They were wrong.
It’s one of the things I hoped they’d do.
Call out lies in real time
Absolutely fucking useless dipshit party.
Such strong actions!1!!
/s
I got tired of listening to the lies in 90 seconds, and had to stop.
Please investigate.

“Why can’t American families be more like the Goebbels and less like the Simpsons”
“You have a small dick” sign?
No one goes to work or school.
We occupy our towns or occupy DC or the capitals.
Organize now.

It's remarkable, heroic even, that they can even hold them up after their spine donations

Lordy, it was embarrassingly bad.
The post-WWII liberal democratic order goes out to a serial failure and the opposition has super cute signs….
Signs are not working
