I agree with Trump on that. He absolutely can not do anything good
through the eyes of the Democrat. It's the same with the media: they
seem to be required to have a sad voice and a frowny face whenever they say anything about Trump.

And Trump is using that to his advantage, basically making them publically support what the public doesn't want. I think we will see the complete demise of the Democrat party during his term.

Isn't it pathetic? Their ridiculousness didn't pay off in 2024 yet they continue to kick the dead horse.

But that's the standard Elitist play: Their policies can't be wrong. Therefore they must push their failed policies harder.

If you go back and watch Biden's State of the Unions, you will see a lot of MAGA Republicans not standing or applauding. You will also see at least one (MGT) loudly heckling and not being removed.

That sounds familiar, and I probably had the same attitude.

Either way, if one is wrong so is the other.

However, Biden didn't have a 13 year old black cancer survivor with a passion for law enforcement being dissed by 263 adults who "represent" the usa.

Diss the president all you want, but don't diss a sweet little boy.

I don't remember how Republicans reacted to any guests Biden had show up at these events. Might make an interesting comparison.

It could also be argued that having such a guest at such a function is a publicity or sympathy stunt. I didn't see that part of it... what was the presented point of the child being there, aside from making him a secret service agent?

They can still be dictators of states, because that's what people like up in the northeast and along the west coast.

I'm finally starting to appreciate that characteristic about them :)

Trump doesn't have anything to gain from publicity because he's already in his 2nd term. I think the reason for it was because Trump wanted to thank Officer Daniel out of gratitude for future law enforcement officer, and/or to give back to America for his gratitude for us.

That is changing as well. Either the politicans are changing (like Eric Adams) or will get changed in the next election.

And Trump is using that against them daily.

2nd term.

He has a whole lot to gain from perceived good publicity, especially if he wants to keep his approval rating up. At the very least, I am sure it makes
his ego feel good.

When you're recklessly slashing funding for cancer research, it lands a
little flat - sort of like Elon Musk wearing body armor and holding his
son on his shoulders for additional protection.

But what other good does it do? Biden didn't seem to care about popularity points.

Indeed!

sort of like Elon Musk wearing body armor and holding his

Based on his son's well-publicized actions in the Oval Office... insulting Trump while he sat there and took it... I have a theory that maybe he is
really the one in charge. ;)
