I've studiously avoided the empty pomp and ceremony of the State of the Union address for some years, but last night I made an exception.
It was a remarkable performance, arguably the best of my adult lifetime.
This was because unlike previous presidents, Donald Trump is playing for keeps. After weeks of siege warfare, this was his chance to break out into the open field. He embraced it with gusto.
It was a long speech, and necessarily had its sluggish parts, but it also had moments that cannot easily be forgotten, such as a joint session of Congress singing "Happy Birthday" to a Holocaust survivor.
Or Trump's pointed and necessary calling out of the Democrats for supporting the murder of infants.
Yes, border security was a major theme, but who could watch Trump win over the White Robe Caucus without laughing hysterically? They defiantly refused to applaud for every worthy cause Trump offered up to them, including a child cancer survivor, but when he talked about female employment rising, they couldn't restrain themselves.
The master then chided his students for their failure before giving them new cause to cheer. As they sat down, the master showman teased them that they should remain standing for what came next, which was his tribute to Womens' Suffrage and suddenly it was The White Resistance that was dancing and shouting "U-S-A!"
Democrat Feminist Status: Owned.
Naturally, the eunuch wing of the GOP was outraged by this vulgar display and they've been pissing about it loudly on Twitter, which perfectly symbolizes their both their hatred of any kind of GOP success as well as their irrelevance.
Ironically, Trump's triumph is getting eclipsed by the Democrat meltdown in Virginia. It is worth pointing out yet again that the KKK was always nothing more than the militant arm of the Democrat party. The notion that it suddenly became a GOP front organization in 1965 was always low-grade bullshit.
It's utterly unsurprising that ancestral southern Democrats would use blackface and Klan hoods as punch lines in their youth, and it never made sense that Republicans would have anything to do with these hateful symbols since one of the Klan's pastimes was lynching Republicans.
The "Solid South" was solid because dissenters could easily find themselves on the short end of a long rope.
The sexual assault charges against Lt. Gov. Fairfax are also escalating in intensity, and this in turn makes me wonder: will he be the first thrown under the bus?
And will the black community passively watch Southern White Democrats once again throw a black man aside without due process to save their miserable hides?
We'll find out soon enough.
