Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) delivered a clear and direct Democratic response to Trump's speech that talked about all of the issues that matter most to the American people.
It was an address for a national audience of moderates and Democrats, and people who regret their vote for Trump. It was perfect for that crowd.---Jason
How do you figure that when she didn’t even talk about the most horrendous disgusting things he’s done to the American people in six short weeks. What about the rest of us who are beside our self because we pay attention and they have no fight in them? For God sakes, Jefferies and Schumer couldn’t even address the American people the night. Trump kicked Zelensky out of the White House.
AGREE. Green stood out. That's what we need more of. FIGHT. Not mealy mouth 'logic'. Another couple of dozen Dems should have gotten loud and kicked out to show we mean business, instead of maintaining our status as National Doormats.
You understand of course that there won't be any more elections in America. If they are held in 2026 and America is still standing as some sort of despotic democracy and America has not been made a vassal state of Russia or China then the elections are unlikely to be fair (refer Russian elections as an example).
Hahahaha! I remember Katie Britt sitting in her very expensive kitchen spouting incendiary lies about immigrants and lamenting that no woman is safe as long as they are allowed to capture, r*pe, and traffic innocent women.
Slotkin gave a great rebuttal speech. Remember Little Marco’s when he choked on his water? The Dems should utilize her more. She’s concise and very relatable.
I thought that Senator Slotkin did an excellent job. From what I heard, Trump barely made any sense and he lied the entire time. I also heard that the Democrats booed him when he said he supported the police. Good for them!
I agree. These are not normal times. Slotkin said her reason was that a president has a right to select the people in his cabinet. In normal times, this would be true. But today, Slotkin forgot the lesson of Chamberlain and Czechoslovakia. Slotkin is playing politics. The Republicans are waging war.
Rebuild the "Clinton" war room with good, honest, bright people to counter punch maga and throw fresh punches. Use a Democratic version of Lee Atwater: attack opponents "supposed strengths," push real polls because most American's back progressive ideas. Stay on topic(s), hammer them everyday make sure they fit on a bumper sticker; ex. When are EGG prices going down? Or, Tariffs = Tax! Or, Murderous dictators are NOT our friends. Rather then constantly asking for money via text, organize and deploy ACTIONS to get people involved.
I think she did a fantastic job. Very clear, factual and about all the things that most Americans care about. She pulled no punches. I agree, the Democrats need to use her a lot more. Common sense is such a welcome change from the chaos, bluster & lies from Trump. She packed a lot in for a rebuttal speech. So proud of her!
If we have elections in 2026. Dump will find some reason, however flimsy, to declare a national emergency and suspend them. We must do everything in our power to win the 3 special elections and take back the House this month!
Great job Senator Elissa Slotkin! Don’t back down and spread your truth! Maybe the people who voted for the convicted felon will finally see through the lies this type of horrific person he is spewing! There’s a saying “If someone shows you their true colors believe them”! How can anyone trust that convicted felon and liar! He’s a disgrace to the American 🇺🇸 people and needs to be impeached and thrown in jail with Vance and Elon Musk!!!!
It was milquetoast that didn’t come close to fighting the dangerous times we find ourselves in Congressman Al Green was the hero in the room.

very, very weak.

Agree. Where is the call to action to usurp the tyrant and his backers?

I thought she came across strong. I was incredibly happy She wasn't in a kitchen.
Hahahaha! I remember Katie Britt sitting in her very expensive kitchen spouting incendiary lies about immigrants and lamenting that no woman is safe as long as they are allowed to capture, r*pe, and traffic innocent women.
Wow that's a pretty low bar

Sadly doesn’t matter…his sycophants drank it up…like kool-aid
They are a lost cause.
That's my Senator!!!
My granddaughter lives in Michigan, so I am claiming Senator Slotkin as a senator. Why? I live in SC, and have two "senators" who kiss trump's ring.
Mine too!
I thought she was great! 🤗
Making a speech and acting on that speech or two different things.
Senator Elissa Slotkin was absolutely incredible!! She had a challenging speech to give and she hit it out of the park!!!!
I AM THE ENEMY OF POWER
Slandered and abused
Beaten, bruised, but still fighting
For you - I am Truth
Not welcomed by all
To those who would do you harm
I’m the enemy
Behold my allies
Diverse views, skepticism
Inconvenient facts
My foes tell their flocks
“Others will lie to you. I’ll
tell you what to think!”
They’re threatened by me
Their power comes from closed minds
Anger, fear and hate
They will convince you
You didn’t see what you saw
Or hear what you heard
They will vilify
Shout-down, demean and malign
Those who speak for me
Trust your eyes and ears
Trust your power to reason
Trust I am there, but …
May be obscure. There’s
not always a smoking gun.
Sometimes, only smoke
But connect the dots
The proof is in the picture
Yes, that’s me you see
I’ve nothing to hide
I can stand your scrutiny
Because I am Truth

Poet laureate worthy!
Great words. Put them into action, now.
This woman voted to make Krist Noem head of Homeland Security
She can't be trusted

💯
Got to remember only one can give a rebuild and they picked her out because she is low key but very relatable and on point
A good speaker with knowledgeable comments. Believable. Trustworthy
Let’s hope the Democrats have a plan, and a strong one.
The plan is to keep beating that drum and win next year, because in Congress they have very little power right now.---Jason
Democratic plan:
Rebuild the "Clinton" war room with good, honest, bright people to counter punch maga and throw fresh punches. Use a Democratic version of Lee Atwater: attack opponents "supposed strengths," push real polls because most American's back progressive ideas. Stay on topic(s), hammer them everyday make sure they fit on a bumper sticker; ex. When are EGG prices going down? Or, Tariffs = Tax! Or, Murderous dictators are NOT our friends.

I think the Democratic rebuttal was very well done
Well done Sen. Slotkin.
