In a no-holds-barred State of the Union address that had the chamber buzzing, President Donald J. Trump didn’t mince words when he turned his gaze to the stone-faced Democrats across the aisle and declared: “These people are CRAZY!”
Trump spoke with his signature flair, blasting the left for refusing to stand and applaud what any red-blooded American would call basic common sense. From heart-wrenching stories of American lives shattered by illegal immigration to rock-solid policies like voter ID and tax cuts, Trump laid bare the Democrats’ detachment from reality.
Let’s break it down.
Trump paid a powerful tribute to young Dalilah Coleman, the California girl who was just 5 years old when she suffered life-altering injuries in a devastating crash caused by an undocumented immigrant driving a semi-truck.
Trump highlighted the heartbreaking details: the illegal alien, granted a commercial driver’s license by California’s open-borders policies, slammed into her family’s vehicle at high speed, resulting in severe trauma including a fractured skull, broken femur, traumatic brain injury, and now lifelong conditions like cerebral palsy requiring constant care and therapy.
With Dalilah and her family present as honored guests, the President called on Congress to act decisively by passing the Dalilah Law, a commonsense measure that would prohibit any state from issuing commercial driver’s licenses to undocumented individuals, ensuring dangerous, unqualified drivers are kept off our roads and preventing future tragedies like this one.
Dalilah survived what no five-year-old should ever have to endure. Crickets from the Democrats.
Next, President Trump honored the memory of Charlie Kirk, martyred for daring to exercise his First Amendment freedoms. Charlie now stands as a powerful beacon, illustrating how toxic rhetoric and political hatred can lead to murder and devastation.
His widow, Erika, was standing in the gallery, mourning the loss of her husband.
Still, crickets.
Trump shifted to ask all of those who agreed that American citizens should be the number one priority of the U.S. government, not illegal aliens, to stand.
No standing ovation for putting Americans first? It’s as if Democrats prefer pandering to foreign interests over our own citizens. Trump hammered this home, emphasizing the need to prioritize American workers, families, and safety above all else.
The GOP erupted; the Dems? Still… crickets.
Trump also touched on election integrity and touted the SAVE Act (The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act) as a no-brainer fix to ensure only citizens vote.
Paired with nationwide voter ID requirements, it’s the kind of reform that prevents fraud and restores faith in our democracy. The Democrats’ own communist prince, Zohran Mamdani, has demanded that those wishing to remove snow in NYC show not one, but two forms of ID. Yet, voting, the most sacred responsibility of American citizens, is not being granted the same respect.
Their refusal to applaud? “Crazy,” plain and simple.
Trump pushed it further and said the quiet part out loud: “They don’t want to give us voter ID because they want to cheat.”
The President didn’t stop there.
He invoked the brutal stabbing death of Irayna, another innocent victim slain by an illegal immigrant who should never have been here. Trump invited her grieving family to the gallery, turning the spotlight on the human cost of sanctuary cities and lax deportation. As he pledged to deport criminals and secure the border, the chamber should have been united in applause.
Instead… you guessed it, crickets.
Democrats stayed seated, drawing Trump’s ire: “They’re crazy not to stand for this.”
Wake up, America. Under liberal policies, American lives, your lives, are expendable collateral in their quest for votes.
This SOTU moment was more than a constitutional responsibility and formality. This was a front-row seat to watching Trump speak with home-field advantage, pushing hard into Democrats blatant lack of support for the citizens that elected them.
While conservatives cheer for secure borders, fair elections, American-first policies, and prosperity, Democrats reveal their true colors by sitting it out.
God bless President Trump, and God bless the USA.
