The reviews are in for President Donald Trump’s 2020 State of the Union address. Observers seem to think he put on a home run clinic:
Trump’s speech tonight was simply spectacular, and the Democrats in the room knew it. From the unapologetic embrace of America and everything it stands for to the emotional moments with Kayla Mueller’s family and the returning soldier surprising his, it was nearly perfect.

Not just Trump’s best speech but the best State of the Union address I’ve ever heard.

I’m not aware of a president, since the time of Ronald Reagan, that has stood at the podium during the #SOTU and proudly kicked socialism in the teeth. I’m more than impressed.

You’re damn right I’m voting @realDonaldTrump in 2020.

Erickson was formerly #NeverTrump.
There were many touching moments. Like the runiting of a military family following the husband’s fourth overseas deployment:
A powerful family reunion during last night’s #SOTU Address. A poignant reminder of the sacrifices American military families bear during times of war. May our bravest in uniform always be safe and protected by God almighty. https://t.co/hK0MiaYlha

One especially powerful moment: President Trump bestowing the Presidential Medal of Freedom on Rush Limbaugh, who recently announced that he has advanced lung cancer:
"Trump making Democrats sit in silence while he rewards Medal of Freedom to a crying guy with cancer. The man has powerful political instincts." — message from a fellow journalist.
— Mollie (@MZHemingway) February 5, 2020
The president so far tonight has:
— awarded Rush Limbaugh the medal of freedom
— reunited a woman with her husband, who was serving abroad, to chants of USA inside the House chamber.both in the middle of the State of the Union, with millions watching

Of course, Democrats have long hated Limbaugh for break their MSM monopoly on news.
Meanwhile, Democrats seemed unwilling to celebrate anything. Young black girl winning a scholarship? They’re not standing for that.

President Trump’s recognition of a Tuskegee Airman? Not standing.
A small cluster of Democrats including Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar and Mark Pocan don't stand for Charles McGee, the former Tuskegee Airman introduced by Trump
— Ben Jacobs (@Bencjacobs) February 5, 2020
I mean, why would you want to celebrate a 100-year old black airman just promoted to Brigadier General who flew a P-51 Mustang in World War II and who shot down actual Nazis, not the pretend kind that live only in the mind’s of leftists?
Jesus Freaking Christ.
The Qassem Suleimani killing? They didn’t stand for that, either.
Terrorist who enslaved and killed American woman announced dead. Democratic congresswomen don't stand. #sotu

Heh:

President Trump carries the energy of wartime conservatism. Promises made; promises kept.
— Ian Miles Cheong (@stillgray) February 5, 2020
The topper? Nancy Pelosi ripped up a copy of President Trump’s speech at the end:
* Falsely accusing Justice Kavanaugh of serial gang-rape
* Then, Democrats’ partisan impeachment charade
* Now, Speaker Pelosi ripping up the President’s State of the Union speech
These antics may feel cathartic for liberals.
But I bet they won’t play well with real Americans https://t.co/NP21uKxBLp
— Mike Davis (@mrddmia) February 5, 2020
The speech that Pelosi ripped up wasn't just any copy of the speech. It was the signed copy the President officially delivers to the Speaker before a SOTU.
It was the ultimate classless move by a classless liar.
— Bill Mitchell (@mitchellvii) February 5, 2020
The political equivalent of throwing one’s toys out of one’s pram (*stroller)… every time I think Democrats can’t possibly play into Trump’s hands any more, they do something like this to give him another huge boost. Madness. https://t.co/1xZ8Tu6fcI

@SpeakerPelosi 's temper tantrum is just the icing on the cake of a three year long pout fest for the Democrats because #SheLost. #PelosiTantrum pic.twitter.com/TvcnXe01xf

Democrats have lived so long in the poisonous #resistance reality bubble that they have no idea how badly their petty stunts play in the rest of the country.
I suspect they’re going to find out in November, good and hard.
