Rep. Steve Cohen: "I will not attend the SOTU tomorrow"

@RepCohen
I will not attend the #SOTU tomorrow. While I will always respect the office of the President, Trump demonstrates daily that he does not. I don’t believe he is worthy of the dignity and respect accorded to his predecessors. #SOTU2020 #BoycottSOTUhttps://cohen.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/congressman-cohen-announces-he-will-not-attend-trump-s-state-union …

2. I give him props
But I also believe he should not get paid for missing it. Take leave
The reason is if a person working at a factory decided to boycott something they’d not get paid and would have to use vacation hours.

4. Could someone please stand up and yell "you lied".

9. Not "You Lie"
Just “Liar!” every time he does. By different people. In other words the whole SOTU would go, Liar... Liar... Liar... Liar... etc.

12. I want someone to yell...YOU ARE STILL IMPEACHED
and "The Kansas City Chiefs play in Missouri".
Also :When are you going to apologize to those with Traumatic Brain Injuries from the bombing?"
Actually there are endless possibilities.

8. Imagine if all the Dems and indies who caucus
with us boycotted tbe SOTU. A statement that would speak louder than anything in his speech.

16. All Dems should stay home or go and jeer at him. Like they did to Obama.

19. I'd be more inclined to have everyone go. Everyone would wear blue. No one would move.
No applause. No boos. No standing. Nothing.

28. Remember when Cohen called out Bill Barr's cowardice by bringing a toy chicken
and eating a bucket of KFC at Barr's empty seat when he refused to testify?

25. Everybody could bring a newspaper.....
...... with a big IMPEACHED headline and quietly read the back page with the headline facing
toward the tangerine turd.
:whatever:

A bucket of chicken will occupy his seat in absentia.

I might have to stand in the corner, but I'm going to stamp my feet.

Let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya ... hard, fast, and continuously.

Beat me to it. HI5
Also the overall average ugly went down for the SOTU.

Maybe a pastrami on rye sandwich?

Typical Dumbocrap, accuse others what you are actually doing.

Trump could call them out by name and simply say "the rep from Xxxxxx didn't want to participate in the SOTU because they didn't want to go back to Xxxxxx and have to tell their constituents about all the winning that has been going on."

Rep. Steve Cohen: "I will not attend the SOTU tomorrow"
Does he really think anyone even cares? All the dems should stay home. :loser: :loser: :loser: :loser:

Just read that Pressley, Mad Max, and AOC won't be attending either. Can it get any better than this? I think I'll take a drink for every Democrat member that doesn't attend. :cheersmate:

"And, I might add, it's more your luck than mine."

And the overall average I.Q. went up! :-)

On behalf of Tennessee, I would like to once again apologize for this bilge-wash. It IS Memphis, after all....

Yeah, it would show how childish, intolerant and hate filled those politicians are to everyone in America. It would also give the Republicans plenty of ammunition for many commercials in the upcoming election season.

Funny, but none of the boycotters were missed tonight. It's as if they are totally irrelevant.
