Weird and Notable Dem Moments at the SOTU – Opinion

We’ve reported on the things Joe Biden said during his State of the Union here, here, and here.

For example, Biden’s brain broke mid-speech but he continued with weirdly (and falsely) claiming that, though “You can’t build a wall high enough to keep out…a vaccine,” vaccines would stop the spread of COVID.

Let’s not even pretend he’s normal when he has moments like this.

However, it is important to not overlook the bizarre Democratic moments at SOTU that go beyond what Biden stated.

The first was Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumer (D–NY), who was standing in the wrong place to clap to what Biden was saying but was instead standing to boos

This just goes to show how inept and seal-like clapping can be. Schumer got so bored with it, he couldn’t even get the timing of it right.

When Joe Biden was mingling after the speech, he was engaging in some kind of weird exchange, touching his head to a woman’s head.

Biden was trying to make noses? Talk about bizarre. Why can’t he just stop touching people in creepy ways? Corn Pop should have another conversation with him.

Now, if we want to talk about creepy, this is it — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) seemingly rubbing her clenched paws together with glee when Joe Biden is talking about…people dying with cancer from burn pits. It’s strange that she looks like a Cheshire Cat, and grins like an ice cream lover.

Kamala Harris was sitting behind Joe Biden during the speech, but even she couldn’t hold back completely when he called the Ukrainian people the “Iranian people” during his speech.

“Putin may circle Kyiv with tanks but he’ll never gain the hearts and souls of the Iranian people,” Biden said. You can see her mouthing the word “Ukrainian.” Can’t imagine that’s going to go over well with the Ukrainians either not just because he couldn’t get their name right but because they are not yet encircled. So it’s not good to suggest they are when they’re fighting so desperately against it.

Now, we would be remiss if we didn’t notice the similarity between perhaps the only good line in Joe Biden’s speech and the SOTU of President Donald Trump.

But perhaps in some ways, one of the most notable pictures wasn’t weird at all. It was just a natural evolution. Senator Joe Manchin (D.WV), spent the whole SOTU sitting alongside the Republicans.

This could be a hint at what’s to come. He can’t be happy with what Biden said which didn’t involve banning any Russian oil or increasing our production — two things he said he would be watching and hoping to see in the speech. It says a lot about his comfort zone during the SOTU.
