It almost looks like sabotage. It's so bad it's surreal. WTF were Dems thinking getting a 'good ole boy' to deliver the rebuttal?

If you are a Dem and you want a bit of redistribution from wealthy corporations - this is one of those times you will probably see that happen. Trump will work with them so they absorb it.
What are you talking about? Paid family and medical leave are normally paid as a payroll tax, which means the workers themselves pay for it. What did you have in mind? A corporation tax to pay for it?

Would be nice if Beshear left some room for co-operation.

That is the best speech Donald Trump has ever given. The widow made it the best speech I've ever seen. Thank God we have a President who appreciates law enforcement and the military again.

Also Thank God for no more lectures from Obama about "who we are."

He's playing the same old divisiveness and identity politics that cost Hillary the election.

Regarding school choice: those schools are welcome to say to voucher money.
E-verify needed to be mentioned. He glossed over the illegal plan. A wall isn't going to do anything about illegals already here. And who's paying for the wall. Mexico? LOL.

The maternity leave is his daughter's idea. I don't especially like having to pay for it but it's a kind gesture so I think we each should contribute the few pennies it would take. We shouldn't be so selfish.

Look at the nearly all white background scenery. Guess the Dems might have figured out the LGBTBBQBBW demographic isn't going to win them elections
