Don’t go. Let him speak to a half empty chamber. It would drive him nuts

If you were in Congress, what would you do for the State of the Union? What do you think Dems should do?

But theres nothing they could do that Fix won't turn around...
It's not like anyone is going to be missing anything anyway.
After 47 enters the Chambers and is standing at the podium beginning to speak, then the Democrats stand-up in unison, turn their backs on 47 and file out of the Chambers.
Now this would be “Good TV”
about wearing 🇺🇦 and 🖕🏽🖕🏼 and I also think all Dems should hold press conferences across the country at the same time as the SOTU
Do it.
Sit down.
Go through every single norm of the SOTU.
As soon as the speech from the fascist dictator starts,
Very quietly stand in unison.
Turn. Back to the "king"
Stand still.
Stand very still.
Resistance requires...
Dems should highlight the reason they are boycotting: Trump’s continued illegal actions.
@aoc.bsky.social
As a bonus…if you have to be like John Lewis and MLK…get arrested!
Cause a commotion…be uncomfortable…make the environment uncomfortable…
𝑫𝑶 𝑺𝑶𝑴𝑬𝑻𝑯𝑰𝑵𝑮!!
Let's get it right this time. 
(Designated survivor)
And all live streamed on news outlets…jumping one to the other showing the anger and rage in each district
Let him tell us about his dream of American carnage round 2 work only his cultists partaking.
And ... if Trump can't be trusted to execute spending monies that Congress appropriates with integrity ... DO NOT FUND THE GOVERNMENT.
Let those in majority fund govt ... no DEMS were elected based on GOP platform. Ten foot pole on that one.
Better they go and call him out on his fascism, racism, and Christian-Nationalist crap
It keeps him from filling those seats with brown shirts.

Hear that, @fernandez.house.gov @senatorheinrich.bsky.social @lujan.senate.gov ?
Attend and, during the speech, loudly call out lies, loudly laugh at laughable proposals, don't be silent. Be coordinated, have a plan.
Don't walk away.
Do they need a quorum for SOTU?
Under Trump and the Republicans: No free press. No free speech. No co-equal branches of government.
THE GOVERNMENT IS ALREADY SHUT DOWN.”
That’s the message. 24/7
#resist
Or, you know, smart counterprogramming, but at I’ll settle for not playing along at this point from Dems.
As much as possible. There’s nothing that infuriates him more than empty seats at his temper tantrums
Democrats come from a place of intellectual discussion. Republicans come from a place of evangelical prostelytism (probably not a word).
IMHO
It is bad, really bad.
His narcissism will implode
Stay outside and wear yellow and blue
He even views protest favourably in the end, any press is good press and all that
Extraordinary times require extraordinary measures.
While walking out after he starts would be dramatic, that will get a violent reaction from trump & the R's bc he will be humiliated.
Not going will have them angry but worried bc they will have no idea what is happening
Hold a presser while he is giving the SOTU and live stream it
LOUDLY!!!
Make some fucking noise, please!
