In the aftermath of President Donald Trump's Joint Address to Congress, the Democratic party's response has been marked by a level of hysteria that suggests a complete detachment from reality.
This is despite the fact that Trump's policies enjoy widespread popularity, as evidenced by recent polls, and his speech was met with considerable approval.
However, Democrats chose to respond with petulant displays of dissent during the address, with some members even resorting to walking out, while others caused a commotion. This behavior was not only unbecoming of their positions but also seemed to be a futile attempt to undermine the President's message.
According to RedState, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), 84, took this hysteria to new heights in a video about the event. It's baffling to consider that she continues to serve in Congress given her increasingly erratic behavior. In her video, she made the baseless claim that Elon Musk had somehow manipulated the election.
"And we don't know everything that Elon Musk has done with his high technology ass," Waters said. "We don't know what he's been accused of by some as it may relate to the election. But we're not going to give up in investigating..."
This unfounded allegation is one that many on the left have propagated, despite Democrats' insistence that there is no substantial evidence of fraud when Trump suggested there might be. Ironically, Waters herself has previously stated that Trump's suggestion of a rigged election was "unpatriotic."
Waters' mental decline since 2016 is evident in her recent statements. Her baseless accusations and conspiracy theories make her an "election denier" once again.
Waters also expressed her displeasure at Trump's decision to highlight the stories of several Americans during his address. She stated that she "really did not like" that he "used the tragic incidents of the families that were there."
She argued that Trump had "misused" these individuals and had focused on them instead of addressing the "real issues." However, these stories are the real issues. It's both shameful and ignorant for Waters to suggest otherwise.
Trump's campaign was centered on addressing the border crisis and curbing the influx of illegal immigrants, a promise he has largely fulfilled. His goal was to prevent tragedies like the one that befell Jocelyn Nungaray from happening again. Despite this, Democrats have allowed the problem to persist. In her video, Waters failed to even mention Jocelyn's name, unlike Trump, who honored her and her family. The Democrats couldn't even muster the decency to stand up during the address for the mothers who had lost their children.
Waters' assertion that Trump is exploiting these families is not only insulting but also dismissive of their ability to make informed decisions about their involvement in supporting Trump.
By recognizing these individuals, Trump demonstrated his commitment to addressing the issues that matter to the American people. This stands in stark contrast to Waters' claims and the behavior of the Democrats, who seem more interested in political theatrics than in serving the American people.
