Whoopsie about the socialism. He’s going to flip when he learns how much we already have. People hate the word, but they actually love the policies. Maybe we should just rename it. Like "americanism" or something.

I don't think what he's talking about is representative of our country on the whole. There's a lot of shit in this speech that they haven't been able to get votes for when they held the Senate and the House and they sure as shit won't get votes for now. He can talk all he wants about banning late-term abortion but that didn't get past the Senate last year and no way it's getting past the House now. He doesn’t have to pass a law. He’s got scotus to do that

All this USA chanting and Brett might confuse it for a frat party and start chugging beers.

He’s got scotus to do that He specifically said he was asking Congress to pass legislation. I'm just saying that legislation hasn't passed and won't pass now. I don't think what he's up there saying is representative of where the country as a whole is at or even where his own party is all at. If it was, they would've done it in the prior 2 years.

Pelosi reminds me of my teacher friend that grades papers whenever she has 10 seconds of downtime.

Interesting he brings a survivor of the Pittsburg synagogue massacre and a SWAT officer, but doesn’t mention the issue of guns.

I mean it's tale as old as time to bitch about what the other party won't let you do the second they're in power when it wasn't a priority for your party to do when you could've.

This speech is weird. It's like they had someone write it to be all "I totally like black people! Nazis and cancer are bad! Unity for the country!" and then they just cut and paste in Stephen Miller's sections like "illegals will rape and kill you dead."

Let me know when Abrams starts. I don’t want to even see a replay clip.
