So, Abigail Spanberger gave the democratic response to the state of the union. It was short, sweet, and pretty much spot on. She mentioned how costs are NOT down, and Trump's tariffs are actually making them worse. She mentioned how Trump has unleashed armies of violent thugs onto our streets, and how his plans to deport illegal immigrants are fundamentally inhumane. The first half of the speech, she was spitting. The second half kind of meandered with her going on about how she won her election by double digits last year (okay?), but all in all, it wasn't bad. It was a rather dead on speech more aligned with my own stance on things. Could it have been better? Yeah. But I'll say this, it was the best democratic SOTU response I've seen in years. Dems normally give these weak speeches that dont resonate like, at all, and this one was actually half decent. Maybe my standards are a bit lower this time. I admit, I'm less picky right now. More in an anti Trump mood, believing we must remove him and his administration and get our society back to normal before we can begin to make progress on, well...my issues again. But yeah. I liked it.
