EDIT: My post is not about the State of the Union speech. It's about the separate response speech by the part not in power given each year after the State of the Union.
My is not about what Donnie's bullshit speech or reactions in the Congressional chamber.



Yes, it's a few weeks away and yes they usually are after thoughts, but this platform can and should matter more.

It can't be some flat political speak, soft spoken easily forgettable moment.

No matter the party or year, that's what it is though. However we haven't had an America like the past 12 months under trump.

Not even his first term shit show.

There needs to be urgency and something that can break through a typical sound bite.

I would even have an audience. There should be energy to this. This matters more than ever. There is no end to what should be mentioned, but it would a tragedy if they didn't make an issue of his theft in Fulton County and his threats to our elections.

It must be concise and humiliating to him.
