Instead of watching the SOFTU speech, I'm going to watch a more grown-up show like wrestling. At least you know who to boo at.

LOL I am going to watch just to see the contorted faces of Schumer, Pelosi and others on the left. It's hillarious.

I won't watch it either. I think Trump is a loser and listening to him is tortuous.

Just once , I wish someone who is against Trump would give me one reason, other than the fact he is a blowhard,
as to why he is such a terrible President.
High Dow, low un employment in all sectors and races. Lower taxes. An attempt to curtail illegal immigration.
Just what is so bad.
I'm loving the State of the Union the more pissed off the dim a cracks look the better job I know Trump is doing

I've asked a couple of times what he's done so bad and or so good. I don't like him either but that's on a personal basis. He campaigned on the border mess as did Obama but he wants to stick to his word, that's a good thing. The biggest problem is his mouth!! Any and everything else I've seen has been inuendo.

You might want to start with the national debit---now 2 Trillion higher than when trump came into office. Amoung his campaign promises he was going to take the debit to zero in 8 years---someone needs to suggest this is going the wrong way.
Regarding his keeping the promise regarding the wall----how does a $5.7 billion section of wall fulfill his campaign promise---which I remind you, that was to build a big (50' as I recall at one point) beautiful concrete wall from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean---and the Mexicans were going to pay for it----if you get that please let me in on it
..and to the original question---I'd rather have my finger nails pulled out than listen to the dribble for an hour.

Well, I did not watch Trump's speech - instead, I read the transcript this morning.
I think the speech represented Trump's current position well. Under normal political conditions - I think it would have been effective. However, since the opposition against him has formed a rather solid line - I don't think the speech gave Trump greater political clout. In other words, I don't think the speech moved the political football (the wall) at all.
In general, I appreciate the way our members have discussed this issue. All involved have expressed themselves well and politely.

Obama increased the debt 6 trillion. Bush 4 trillion. I don't even think that a good argument in any vein until we get the government as a whole at least headed in the right direction. Trump will never do it, anything he suggests is wrong before one is done reading. Now Trump is getting held word for word on the wall but never the less it was a campaign promise that the people wanted and he's trying to fulfill it 5.7 billion for a wall that does something, that's a bargain. Should we look up all the hundreds of billions in pork that has made our debt 20 trillion?
Back to the wall, I realize it's something to grab onto, something to prove Trump is a horrible president. I also realize Trump is being stubborn but nobody wants to offer solutions they just want to prove he's wrong. What's the solution? I don't know but it feeds the hate and that's all anybody wants now a days so yippe ki I A!
Thanks for your synopsis Utah.

It has to be more than just "A Wall".... It needs to be a multi faceted approach .. I've smuggled myself out of Mexico at least 4 times. It's easy to do..
