Tonight is the State of the Union address which, in the Age of Trump, means it is time for the annual list of democrats who think they are brave by boycotting it. This year’s list of babies throwing themselves on the floor while kicking and screaming includes Donkeyteeth Dimwit Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Captain Caveman Al Green. Not only do these losers mistakenly think this is an act of courage, they are completely clueless that their absence is welcomed by everyone including the President.
AOC is out:
After much deliberation, I have decided that I will not use my presence at a state ceremony to normalize Trump’s lawless conduct & subversion of the Constitution.
None of this is normal, and I will not legitimize it.
Consequently, I will not be attending the State of the Union.

This is a deeply personal decision for each member to make, and a choice I did not take lightly.
I will be hopping on Instagram Live later this evening to connect with my constituents and follow up with their questions about #SOTU.

So she’s not going to the SOTU but she is going to watch it on TV and cry to her followers?
Silent “Squad” member Ayanna Pressley also ain’t going and issued this statement:
“The State of the Union is hurting because of the occupant of the White House, who consistently demonstrates contempt for the American people, contempt for Congress, and contempt for our constitution – strong-arming a sham impeachment trial in the Senate. This presidency is not legitimate. On the eve of Senate Republicans covering up transgressions and spreading misinformation, I cannot in good conscience attend a sham State of the Union when I have seen firsthand the damage Donald J. Trump’s rhetoric and policies have inflicted on those I love and those I represent,” said Pressley.
Clearly the memo went out to play up Trump’s “illegitimacy.” Texas Rep. Al Green didn’t get the memo, but he had his own reasons to skip the SOTU:
Because of an impeached, reckless, ruthless, lawless, shameless, corrupt, & unapologetically bigoted president – who is still engaging in a coverup, the state of the House, the state of the Senate, and the #StateOfTheUnion are divided.
I will NOT attend #SOTU2020.

A black guy refusing to step foot in a room because of a white man’s presence sounds pretty racist to me.
Oregon Rep. Earl Blumenauer will also not be in attendance but it’s unlikely anyone will notice since no one knows who the hell he is. He had a quote too but who cares?
Remember when Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen brought a bucket of KFC to a House hearing to mock Attorney General Bill Barr as a chicken for not showing up to testify? Well, he’s too chicken to show up to the SOTU:
“I will not be a witness to puffery and prevarication flowing while our Constitution and our laws are disrespectfully and dangerously flouted,” said Cohen in a statement.
Rounding out the group of babies are Georgia Rep. Hank Johnson and Kooky Kowgirl Frederica Wilson. They were apparently too cranky to issue statements but presumably all of that fussiness meant they needed a nap.
Once again the democrats demonstrate that they are not serious or mature people. Up next, we’ll try to find a list of illegal aliens, terrorists, and trannies that democrats who are attending will bring as their guests.
