Should Dems Boycott SOTU address?

“Senate Democrats are having discussions about whether to boycott the event and talked it over during a closed-door lunch this week, according to two people granted anonymity to share details of the private conversations. Some members of the caucus are currently expected to attend, though a swath is undecided.”

Personally, I’d like to see the solidarity. There’s nothing Chump says that anybody needs or wants to hear anyway.

70. Every last Dem should have a Town-Hall session,.... listening and conversing

with their voters in their respective districts, on SOTU night.
And then contrast that, with the Lying Fascist Poop Trump will be
slinging, only to White Old Man Republicans, on TV!!
It would make a great split-screen!!

28. What if they wore two masks. The one seen when they enter would look normal, but...

at the first lie or insult, they pull down the outer mask to reveal one that reads “Quiet, piggy!”

The Dems show up and their sour -faces look bad. The Dems boycott and look petty. It's a don't-care for me.

     Whether they boycott one of the great traditions in the leading Western democracy, or sit there like soulless vampires who can't applaud a little boy for surviving life-threatening health issues, they'll find a way to **** it up and look stupid. I just hope the RNC makes hay of it for the midterms.

Let them boycott. What's there to lost by them not being present?

Wish I had access to the archives of CU, but in 2005 the DUmp monkeys were recommending a variety of protests for President Bush's SOTU, such as but not limited to banging pots and pans, turning their backs, gawd I wish I remembered all there nonsensical suggestions.

Ralphie highly recommends self immolation.

     I recall Will Pitt suggesting that all Dems stand and turn their back to Bush, and he called that the "greatest idea since the New Deal." That is a quote.

     It's a shame Pitt drank himself to death. I wanted more of the crazy.

I am too. I am tired of their stunts thinking that it will somehow change the minds of millions to their side. After I don't know how many years it hasn't happened yet.

The lyingly named Truth Out is still around. I occasionally see one of their loony-posts in my FB feed.
