Democrats sit on their hands during presidential speech to Congress Associated Press March 1, 2017

WASHINGTON (AP) — They didn’t heckle. There were no in-your-face pink “pussyhats.” There were just a few no-shows.

At President Donald Trump’s first address to Congress on Tuesday, Democrats stuck with more muted ways of exercising the art of the dis.

They turned their thumbs down. They maintained stone faces. They sat on their hands.

When I saw Nancy Pelosi sitting, stone-faced, I thought that I had the wrong TV channel on and was watching the dead, stuffed, 'Norma Bates' propped up in the Bates house basement..

Her white KKK robed fits her nicely. She showed good manners by leaving off her white KKK hat while seated.

That’s great!
President Trump outed them as the obstructionist, partisan hacks they are: the American people want results, not more of their political BS. The election is over.
If the `rats and their GOP-e allies don’t get over their chronic butthurt, they’re toast with the public.

Republicans didn’t applaud during Obama’s speeches.

You don’t remember the usual GOP suspects gushing over Obama after his election? They weren’t just applauding, they were endorsing him.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/02/01/AR2008020102663.html

More relevant, even those of us who didn’t vote for Obama—those of us here who looked as askance at him as VP Cheney giving him the hairy eyeball on inauguration day—as Americans we gave him the benefit of the doubt in the beginning.
Whether eligible or not, he was elected and we wanted what was best for America. Then he proceeded to try and tear us down.
The `rats remind me of you-know-who in his bunker:
“Let the German people die. This couldn’t be my fault.”

They sat on their hands when the president talked about the good things he wanted to accomplish, with their help instead of constant political bickering ... short of lowering the Earth’s temperature and ocean levels. Democrats are scumbags.
