but...for the sake of love and peace, and my old age, I let it slide. Years ago, I might have harassed her?

It's not a joke, they're insane and should
be treated that way, with kid gloves. It's
a mass hysteria from watching the MSM
non stop bashing of Trump. Better to just
let her go than have her turn violent
on you.

I thought it was well deranged? I was reading, and the weather was on, next thing I hear and see is this woman going ballistic about what is on the tv. Last time I has the remote in my hand I turned on the weather, than the SOTU came on and this gal goes into a nutzoid rant. I guess I really hadn't paid attention to how much a group of them are all in contact and plot together?

Jokes aside TDS formerly BDS seems more and more a true mental illness. Obama wins and the average conservative is sad but last few goes on. As you say, we just tune him out in TV, put on an episode of “Hogan’s Heroes,” and live our lives. Anti-Trumpers see “TRUMP” in chalk on campus and are ready to call the cops, they feel “unsafe.” They needed puppies to pet when Hillary lost. We all saw a few lose it in n Youtube. Your relatives just seem the same class of folk. They cannot accept sharing the planet with Trump supporters.

I’d have loved to see it all. Can’t imagine someone losing it like that.

Like the time Trump supporters were puffed up with pride for a week because a test proved that their guy does not have a cognitive disorder?

Like that.

Trump is judged on a bar as low as Trump's, and look at his disapproval rating. If he were judged as every other elected official, well.

Yes, "he didn't offend large swaths of America as people feared he would" = favorable reaction to his speech.

A very low bar.

Did you know about his chemistry exam in school? It went like this, as explained by his teacher:

"We figured if a regular student needs 60% to pass, Mr Trump should only need 50%. Further, if regular students get ten questions, he should only get two. So I asked him 1) what's the color of methylene blue. He answered "Pink." My second question was 2) Can you tell me how to synthesize hydrochloric acid? Mr trump answered "No," which is perfectly correct."

Looks like the WH is going to release the memo tomorrow that Trump's DOJ doesn't want released and Trump's FBI says is extremely misleading.

Let's get two things straight before the righties start foaming at the mouth:

1) No Dems are crapping their pants over this. We know it's a BS memo written by Trump stooge Devin Nunes
2) This is not a bigger scandal than Watergate. Although we can always hope it helps lead to Donald's removal from office!

I've read some commentary on the Democrats refusing to applaud Trump even on good points and some don't seem to understand.

It's easy --we've already seen Trump act like an ass 100 times over. At this point, no one really cares if he can give the greatest speech in the world for an hour.

We've already seen and heard too much to forget.

Their lack of applause can be seen as "I'll believe it when I see it" and we know that Trump will say whatever his audience wants to hear and then almost always fails to deliver, usually by contradicting himself later.

This DACA thing I see playing out like: here is what the Democrats want, along with something the Democrats will never accept. The Democrats reject the deal, therefore the Democrats won't neotiate, therefore no deal
That is the art of the Trump deal.

Obama referred to himself 142 times in the 2010 State of the Union.
Last night, Donald Trump referred to himself 29 times. And they say
Trump is the narcissist? lol Forty-three percent of Democrats who
watched last night liked the speech. Uh Oh..

I think the whole theatrics of the SOTU has become over the top with long pauses while one side gives an applauding standing O and the other side sits.
I thought it was dumb during all the previous STOTU and still think its dumb.
