Democrat Antics Fail, Al Green Humiliated
While most of America tuned in to hear Trump’s agenda, Democrats attempted to distract with stunts and protests. One of the biggest embarrassments came when Rep. Al Green was thrown out of the chamber after disrupting the speech.
A whopping 75% of viewers supported House Speaker Mike Johnson’s decision to have Green removed. The public saw through the grandstanding, and instead of harming Trump, the Democratic antics only reinforced his strong leadership.
