Trump presented the 2019 State of the Union
majority of the people in the Union are feeling stagnant
they work a lot but decent life eludes them
Trump’s own union, that is his financial empire, is doing good
Trump began with a message of unity
then axed that unity with his demand for a wall
this is how he operates, nothing new
his call for oneness had a paragraph:
“But we must reject the politics of revenge, resistance and retribution — and embrace the boundless potential of cooperation, compromise and the common good.”
Nancy Pelosi rose and clapped (at 12:20 in the video)
that clapping got lots of interpretations
most said Pelosi was ridiculing the divider talking of cooperation
Pelosi has become a hero to many Democrats and Trump haters
her daughter Christine Pelosi said:
“She knows. And she knows that you know. And frankly she’s disappointed that you thought this would work. But here’s a clap. #youtriedit”
the tragedy is that most supporters/followers support/follow blindly
Pelosi’s supporters/followers didn’t talk about her clapping at 1:01:20
Trump was talking about Venezuela
(the country with the most proven oil reserves)
he said his government recognizes Juan Guaido as the president
(Trump assured his support to Guaido during a phone call)
whereas the actual president is Nicolas Maduro
European countries were forced by the US to accept Guaido
illegitimate Guaido is thinking of asking the US to intervene militarily
in September 2018, Trump had threatened Maduro:
On January 28, 2019, NSC head John Bolton reminded of “all options“
in simple English: US will invade/destroy/kill if Guaido is not accepted
Pelosi was clapping at Trump’s threats
Pelosi’s supporters/followers didn’t talk about her clapping at 1:03:50
Trump proudly announced his mis-acheivement
i.e., recognizing the disputed Jerusalem as the Israeli capital
also opening the US embassy in that city
the US governments have never been very humane to the Palestinians
yet the US governments every now and then showed some empathy
but was not strong enough to counter the Israel Lobby controlled Congress
Pelosi clapped Trump’s transfer of US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem
Pelosi’s supporters/followers didn’t talk about her clapping at 1:02:58
Trump declared that the US “will never be a socialist country”
the United States has never been a true democracy
nor has the US been a full socialist country for all its citizens
it has always been a total socialist country for the extremely rich class
congressional members are bribed to enact laws favorable to that class
which also are beneficial to the corrupt congresspersons
the US government works to enact laws advantageous to the very wealthy
such as copyrights, patents, etc.
corrupt queen Pelosi clapped at Trump’s opposition to socialism
yes, Pelosi’s clapping was meek on Jerusalem, Venezuela, and Socialism
she knows many of her new party colleagues opposes business as usual
youngest congressperson AOC has attacked the Congress corruption
in clear/simple language she explains corruption in 5 minutes
everyone must watch the video, especially the self-proclaimed “patriots”
(AOC’s own party members are planning her downfall)
one example of corrupt queen Pelosi
in 2008, Pelosi and her husband made $100,000 in just two days
they bought stocks in a 2008 Visa IPO to reap that profit
their net worth is $196 million
author Paul Street has an apt description for this corrupt queen:
“[Pelosi is] a poster child for the disease of corporate plutocracy.”
