Watching the State of the Union address was very disheartening. When our USA men’s hockey team came into the chamber, everyone was cheering and clapping, except some Democrats. How can a party be so jagged with hate to not recognize a great accomplishment?

Shame on the Democrats that could not get up out of their seats. We should not keep electing these fossils into office; we need young people in office to see any change.
