During President Trump's address to Congress, Rep. Al Green (D-TX) protested by heckling, leading to his removal. Political contributor Chris Stirewalt mocked the situation on NewsNation, particularly highlighting Green's elderly appearance and suggesting it did not reflect the Democratic Party's desired youthful image. Stirewalt also criticized Democrats for their ineffective use of small signs during the event, questioning their presence and suggesting they should not have attended if they felt that way. He concluded that such behavior undermines the decorum expected of Congress and reflects poorly on the nation.
Al Green the Democrat who stood up and tried to argue with Trump, tried to do the Marjorie Taylor Greene bit is an elderly man waving a cane. This is not the look that the Democratic Party was trying to get, right? This is not the youth movement.
Can you imagine that you were a member of Congress, entrusted with the people's work, and that you had little signs made up so that you would sit in the audience? And if you don't wanna be there, don't go.
It would have been very powerful if there would have been a bunch of empty seats on the Democratic side, but to sit there and hold up your little thing.
And then Elizabeth Warren is clapping and Donald Trump is calling her Pocahontas, it's all beneath the worth of a great nation.
