Republicans hope for calm amid storm at State of the Union

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

When President Trump journeys to the Capitol on Tuesday to deliver his first State of the Union address, some members of his party know exactly what they want to happen: As little as possible.

“I hope the speech is uneventful in a good way,” said Rep. Charlie Dent (R-Pa.), a moderate Republican who has previously criticized the president. “Last year, he addressed Congress and that speech was reasonably measured. I hope that is what happens again.”

But as Dent and others acknowledge, there is no telling how Trump will behave at any given moment.

That is particularly the case when the president feels embattled.

Tuesday’s address will come with Trump under a cloud of new allegations that he sought to fire special counsel Robert Mueller last year. He also remains mired in low approval ratings.

3. Watch Nixon's SOTU speech from during Watergate and compare it

I'll bet there will be many similarities between Nixon's speech and what Trump says.

4. If all Dems wear cardboard Mueller masks?

Oh man! That would freak him right the hell out to look out on a massive crowd of Muellers.

Just print 'em on paper, and put 'em on little fans--every time he tells a whopper, flash 'em!

5. He won't give a state of the union

It'll be more propaganda and more lies to promote himself , and attack others with.

8. Will there be Stormy weather?

Perhaps a million or so citizens could hold up signs to indicate the state of the union, assuming the weather is suitable. Everyone could use simple words in bold crayon to make sure the thing doesn't misunderstand the messages.
