Washington – President Donald Trump noted a wave of republican adoration and a series of democratic protests, when he advertised bold 44 days of his presidency, doubled his promise to apply tariffs and repeatedly hitting the topics of cultural war, which has long revived their most faithful base.
From the very beginning it was clear that it was a home chamber zingy to the first address to the joint session of the Congress during the second term of Trump. Trump’s speech – which seemed to be the longest in this format in history – hit the few uniform chords and was sprinkled with personal insults for Democrats.
And the Democrats tried to show their disapproval. One democratic representative was thrown out, others maintained signs. Republicans regained that some special invited guests were not met with the applause of Democrats about a stone face in the audience.
“I look at the Democrats in front of me and I realize that there is absolutely nothing I can say to make them happy or make them stand or smile,” Trump said at the beginning of the speech on Tuesday.
US representative Brendan Boyle, a democrat of Philadelphia, called Trump’s address “the most angry, the most dividing speech I have ever heard from the President of the United States.”
Trump’s tons were often fighting during the marathon speech – about an hour and 40 minutes – but there were also more celebrations. His guests are a few Western Pennsylvanians, the family of firefighter Corey Comperatore, who was killed at the rally of Trump last year, and Marc Fogel, a teacher of the history of Butler, who was released from the Russian prison last month.
Here are some key results from Trump’s address.
“Musk steals” and escorted a democratic legislator
The democratic reprimand of Trump’s speech was physical throughout the evening as members, including representatives of American Pennsylvania. Mary Gay Scanlon and Madeline Dean, they kept black plaques with the word “false”, whenever Trump said something that they decided to be a lie.
Other platforms read “Save Medicaid”, “Protect Veterans” and “Musk Crads”, a nod to the work of Elon Musk, leading the Department of the Trump Administration Government, who spotted federal agencies.
When Trump said: “Days of ruling by unrequited bureaucrats passed,” stood Scanlon and pointed to Musk, who was sitting on the upper balcony of houses of houses on Tuesday, when several Democrats joined her.
The most vocal opposition came from the American team of Al Green from Texas, which was escorted from the chamber after repeated standing and screaming “you have no mandate” because Trump began his attention.
It is extremely infrequent to dig a member from the chamber, even in joint addresses of sessions, which can be characteristic, but the moment was an example of the political division of the evening.
Republicans were boomed by Green and American representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene (R., Ga.) And Nancy Mace (R., SC) jumped on his feet, demanding that he be removed.
And when he was led out, a few Republicans sang “No, no, no, hey, hey, say goodbye.”
US representative Ryan Mackenzie, a first -year student of Republicans from Pennsylvania, called the behavior of Democrats “shameful”, after a speech and criticized them for the applause of Trump’s invited guests during the speech.
“I was very surprised that the Democrats did not even stand and applauded the child who had cancer or student, who was just admitted to the West Point, or capturing the terrorist who killed Americans in Afghanistan. They sat on their hands at a really shameful exhibition. “
US Senator Chris Coons, Delaware Democrat, said after a speech that “there were moments of disrespect that in my opinion they were unfortunate, but to be honest, they were also disturbing misleading.”
He emphasized what would probably become a conversation point for democrats in the next few days: that Trump spent little time in economic issues.
“I was struck by the fact that President Trump spent the same, if no more time to disperse, such as Greenland, the Panama Channel, the Bay of America, and going to Mars, as he did, specifically about how to reduce the prices of average Americans.”
United GOP is behind Trump
The Republicans in the Chamber reacted in a blockade to the speech of President Donald Trump on Tuesday – as in the first weeks of his second presidency – with almost every member rising to almost every ovation and praising him later.
“I thought he described in detail the achievements within six weeks, which were very consistent with what he promised during the campaign,” said US senator Dave McCormick, a first -year student of Republicans from Pennsylvania, who often joined Trump on the campaign trail last year.
USA SCOTT Perry, a longtime ally of Trump from York, and former chairman of the Freedom Caucus house, sat at the crossing and led a few stations.
But more moderate members also showed their consent. US representative Brian Fitzpatrick, a republican of Bucks, who co -charges with a bilateral solution to Kaucus Rose problems, sometimes reluctant, for each ovation, including for the wedding of Trump prohibiting transgender athletes from women’s sport, his call to protect law enforcement agencies and promise to enhance the security of borders.
After the address, the latest members of Pennsylvania largely offered praise. US representative Rob Bresnahan (R., Pa.) He called the address, the first in which he participated as the first year Congresmen, “very well done”.
“I was glad that he was able to pay attention to the law and order and promote police officers with safe communities.”
Bresnahan, before the speech, praised Trump’s work to limit Fentanyl’s flow to the country through strengthened borders. But a first -year student, who is a member of the agricultural committee, also said that he heard concerns about the components of the impact of tariffs.
“You know, there are many different fears about how this can affect the actual agricultural industry, but it also encourages people to create products and production here in the United States.”
Earlier, US representatives Mike Kelly, a Republican who represents the parts of Western Pennsylvania, praised Trump for fulfilling the promises of the campaign.
“People think he is moving too quickly because they are used to how it moves here, which is very slow.”
Trump remembers Butler, Pa.
Butler in Pennsylvania played an advantage in Trump’s speech on Tuesday evening. He celebrated Marc Fogel, a teacher and from a butler who returned to the USA at the beginning of February after years in Russian captivity, and commemorated Corey Comperatore, who died protecting his family while shooting during the rally of Trump in the western part of the city in Pennsylvania in July.
Before the territory of Butler Farm became known for his deadly shooting, Trump said that this is the place where he met Fogel’s mother, 95-year-old Malphine Fogel, and “would not forget what she said about her son.”
Shortly after Trump met Malphine, a shooting broke out at a rally.
“My life was saved by a fraction of the whole, but some were not so lucky,” Trump said during a speech to Congress. “Corey Comperatore was a fireman, veteran, Christian, husband, devoted father and, above all, a defender.”
He comforted the daughters of Comperatore and his wife, who sat in the upper deck of the chambers, and said that “Corey is now looking at his beautiful women and he cheers you.”
When Doge continues the shock, Musk receives a standing ovation
While Musk was a regular dispute for Democrats, Trump and Republicans widely praised him and Doge.
The president distinguished Musk, the richest man in the world and his work conducting the commission, which reviews the operations and expenses of the federal government.
“He didn’t need it, he didn’t need it, thank you very much, we appreciate it,” Trump said on Tuesday to a standing ovation for Musk, who is also the general director of SpaceX – who receives government contracts – and Tesla.
Trump rattled from the list of entities or projects – which were not immediately verifiable – that Doge identified as “waste”. Democrats kept their “false” plaques like him.
He also took the opportunity to dig aid in countries – “$ 8 million for the promotion of LGBTQ+ in the African nation of Lesotho, which no one has ever heard of,” said Trump, reading a long list of expenses he has opposed.
Doge cuts were caused by mass dismissals of government employees and the termination of the Federal Lease Agreement in Philadelphia and the region.
The president said on Tuesday evening that if federal employees did not return to the office, they would be “removed from work”.
Universal Doge cuts led to a certain throw even in districts based on republican districts, placing some GOP members in a tight place.
Mackenzie, after the address, praised Trump’s executive orders related to immigration on the border, but pointed to the dog as an area where he expects some reductions to fall.
“I think we all want to get rid of waste, fraud and abuse,” said Mackenzie. “But to do this in the legislative process, I think you should slow down and you should spend more time to really consider these things.”
