TKC STATE OF THE UNION OPEN THREAD!!! KANSAS CITY WATCHES STACEY ABRAMS WHILST PREZ TRUMP TALKS UNITY!!!
As always, we're looking for the very best comments from our reader community to highlight as tonight the words of the Prez and his opposition should resonate across the nation.
To wit . . .
TELL THE TKC BLOG COMMUNITY: WHO WON TONIGHT?!?!
As we reported previously, KCMO is mostly interested in the response to the Commander-In-Chief:
Here's more links as the talk is already underway for our loyal readers who are never anywhere without their mobile
Fox News: Trump, in State of the Union, to advocate ‘agenda of the American People’

You decide . . .
Abrams won before the cameras started rolling. You should know that TKC. Nobody will be allowed to criticize her words or performance. A perfect move by Pelosi.
ReplyDeleteSaw this one and it pretty much nailed it:
DeleteIf you are a pundit and you watch Trump read a TelePrompter tonight and say something like, “This is a NEW Trump,” or “THIS is presidential,” or anything other than, “the racist psychopath read some words on tv without literally shitting himself,” please quit your job forever.
You've been warned TKC.
Trump calls for unity. Democrats play identity politics. And so it goes.
DeleteSo who is this gap-toothed Aunt Jemima wannabe that's supposedly rebutting Trump tonight?
ReplyDeleteEvery time Twit-In-Chief lies take a drink. You'll be drunk half way through.
ReplyDeleteP. Lousy, such a bitch, shuffles papers and looks like she was weaned on a pickle every time Trump is applauded.
ReplyDeleteFox news wins these past two years, the propped up a reality show star and turned him into a President and now they get to watch his career take an enormous tumble that might send him out of office early. Looking forward to how we see the Mueller indictments play out in the next couple of days. This is probably the last time Trump sees this stage.
ReplyDeleteOh please. Even though the thought of that happening puts your 3” at attention, it ain’t happening. You just need to go pout with Nannie and her minions.
DeleteThis is democrat city and county that can barely delivers basic services. The county courthouse is closed for 10 days. What if all the electricity or natural gas was turned off for 10 days? The city, crime is out of control, the KC school district is crap, the roads are terrible, the taxes are highest in the area, etc. Do we need to say more about the democrat utopia of the area. Trump 2020.
ReplyDeleteHow to Octavia-Cortez's titties look tonight?
ReplyDeleteThey look ok except they are attached to a stupid cunt
DeleteLMAO!!!
DeleteThis Democrat will be voting for Trump 2020.
ReplyDeleteTrump has a plan and has created jobs that endure despite the bad economy. Meanwhile the Democrats have become the party of "no" to every advancement in wealth and security.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see Dems embracing diversity, I only hope that carries down to state and local election. I'm really getting tired of all these white women coming down to my neighborhood and asking for my vote around election time. I never see them when they don't want something from me and my neighbors and we're never invited to their part of town. But I'm pretty sure I can expect more of the same in 2020.
ReplyDeleteFunk Wins.
ReplyDeleteTrump Wins.
I just read the transcript to what our President said and is working for. Lot of truth to what he said and a lot of truth to what he says needs to be done. I noticed how he emphasizes on working together. That is where the jagunaut excistes. He said, "if there is going to be peace in legislation, there cannot be war and investigation. It just does not work that way." And he is right but as many of you here on TKC scream day in and day out how Trump is going to jail. Look it's been two years more than enough time to have found something worth busting Trump over. Hell Nioxin really did something wrong and even he didn't go to jail. Our President is right it's time for bipartisan action. As he said and it is true America needs to committed in ending illegal immigration and putting the ruthless coyotes, cartels, drug dealers, and human traffickers out of business. President Trump made it clear and spot on when he claimed, "Wealthy politicians and donors push for open borders, while living their lives behind walls and gates and guards." Oh and those would be well armed guards while so many political fools want to take out right to home defense away. I'm not going to list and the points he made on illegal immigrants and immigration because you all know what it is and would rather hate on a man than stand up and see what's right is done.
ReplyDeleteBut as we all know the same old bullshit politics will take place by those like Cleaver and Davids to name a few of the locals who were voted in who no doubt don't have yours or my best interests at heart. Cleavers track record screams loud and clear about that.
To me the most clear and important problem facing this country and was addressed;
Both parties should be able to unite for a great rebuilding of America’s crumbling infrastructure. I know that the Congress is eager to pass an infrastructure bill — and I am eager to work with you on legislation to deliver new and important infrastructure investment, including investments in the cutting edge industries of the future. This is not an option. This is a necessity. The next major priority for me, and for all of us, should be to lower the cost of healthcare and prescription drugs — and to protect patients with pre-existing conditions.
Did Stacy Abrams really "knock it out of the park" and give Chris Matthews a little tingle down his leg?

ReplyDeleteSharice Davids sat with a frown on her face when Trump spoke about putting a stop to sex trafficking. Everyone else stood and clapped but Sharice did not. So in other words she supports sex trafficking of young American girls but the good news is, by doing this she and Alexandria Cortez helped our party big time. Email Sharice and tell her thanks for the support and ammo to use against her next election time.
Also I had to laugh when Alexandria Cortez had to look at the women sitting next to her to see if she should stand or not on some issues. She didn't even know what to do unless everyone else went first. It was hilarious, and spoke volumes as did Sharice Davids!
It truly was a great night I knew these two would help us, a truly bad thing will turn around for good!
This Stacy Abrams seems really stupid. Did she go to Kansas City Public Schools?
ReplyDeleteNever knew Fat Albert was such a great politician. I think I'd vote for that guy if he ran for president.
ReplyDeleteSorry boys, the Orange baby was outclassed by a real leader and he looked like nothing but a standup comedian being humored by a crowd that was really laughing at him.
ReplyDeleteOh Angela. You're so blinded by infantile rage that you don't even know when you're losing.
DeleteAngela K,
DeleteIt has to suck to be as bitter and resentful as you are. I’m sorry your dad didn’t pull out faster and now you’re destined to endure this horrible ordeal called life. Maybe you’ll get lucky and get hit by a bus or something to end your suffering.
Trump won the night, nobody buys that commie garbage.
ReplyDeleteIt’s so clear, Trump 2020, the winner !!
ReplyDeleteWe're staying in Syria because of Israel. We're staying in Iraq because of Israel. We're staying in Afganistan because of Israel. We're giving 38 Billion dollars to Israel. Soon, it will be illegal to boycott Israel. Did our (wall-less) Commander-In-Chief mention any of those things ? Perhaps I should pay closer attention. I do recall him saying during his campaign that he would bring our troops home. I guess maybe he'll get around to that later.
ReplyDeleteAngela K needs help.
ReplyDeleteWhat? More food?
DeleteAnd Trump just lies and lies .... and his supporters are clueless stupid fools being played. Please hurry Muller, the nation needs you!
ReplyDeleteWatched the SOTU address, didn't watch Abrams response.
ReplyDeletePresident Trump gave an EXCELLENT speech!
Shades of Ronald Reagan.
(I support him, but I'm not a huge fan. That's just to let you know where I'm coming from)
I see Trump solidifying his base for 2020, and making it very difficult for any Democrat contender to gather a mass groundswell. Democrats are repeating what Republicans did in the 2016 race for the nomination, when something like 16-19 candidates entered the race and allowed newcomer Trump to suck all the oxygen off the stage.
The Washington democrats have no new ideas, just like the KC democrats. The KC democrats continue to defend the most regressive tax policies and the centerpiece is the earnings tax. Trump and Jeff City republicans are more progressive than KC democrats. Trump 2020.
ReplyDeleteThe Socialist Women In White ARE Baby Killer's They stayed Sitting. The Only Ones and Killing at full term.
ReplyDeleteI see the comments on here and I'm appalled. It's really strange that there are very few allies to the struggle for women's rights in this forum. I guess that is the true Kansas City, men who are afraid that women taking charge of their own bodies means that they are no longer important in the grand scheme of things.
ReplyDeleteBut from tonight what I saw is that women are now in charge of the agenda in this nation. Women have stepped up to claim what is rightfully theirs and they will no longer be subjugated by men using distractions to limit our rights.
In Kansas women voting together overturned the power of cynical campaigning and vindictive Trumpian hate speech and now I can see that the same thing is happening Across the Nation. You simply cannot have a party that looks too demonize most of the voters.THAT is why the Republicans have lost in Kansas and that's why I 20/20 holds another Blue Wave this time to take back the Senate and the White House. Women will no longer be owned and oppressed by Republicans. #timesup
^^^ You tell'em sweet cheeks.
DeleteWhat caused you to become such a train wreck? Sexual abuse? Not enough love or attention as a child? Lack of interest from men? Whatever it was, we need to make sure other girls don’t fall victim to it.
DeleteI’m appalled by how stupid you sound. Are you forgetting how Hilarious Clinton got her decrepit old ass kicked by Trump? Or how Claire lost, too?
DeleteTrump 2020
ReplyDeletePutin/Pence 2019
ReplyDeleteAngela K are you ever stupid and so full of hate it's eating you alive. Just for the record back Davids all you want she still isn't going to ask you for a date and I know that's what you want since you so hate men. Well guess what sweet checks, we don't like you either.
ReplyDeleteWikipedia say Stacey Abrams owes $50000 in back taxes and $170000 in credit card and student loan debt. Who is her financial advisor, Carwash Cleaver?
ReplyDeleteIt looks line she has a hefty line of credit at Popeyes Fried Chicken. How much does she owe them?
Delete^^^^^^^^^^Now thats funny
ReplyDeleteGlad Trump made it through before passing out. It took him nearly 90 minutes to slur his way through a half hour speech.
ReplyDeleteIf he loves WWII and D-Day so much, maybe he shouldn't skip out on remembrances and ceremonies in Paris to sulk in his hotel room. Maybe he should make the trip to Arlington or the Tomb of the Unknown on Veterans Day instead of watching TV and tweeting.
50 years too late, but he is finally going to Vietnam, even if it's only for another nothing summit with the North Koreans. Hope his bone spurs don't act up.
Also glad to see his pledge not to abolish ICE. If he's such a fan, maybe he shouldn't have abolished a month of their paychecks...
Everything else will be forgotten by morning. He has no plans for health care, infrastructure, immigration reform, AIDS and cancer research, or anything else. He couldn't get money from Mexico for his wall and couldn't get the GOP to pay for it over the last 2 years. He has no idea what he's doing.
"Are you forgetting how Hilarious Clinton got her decrepit old ass kicked by Trump?"
ReplyDeleteNope - I didn't forget she beat Trump by over 3 million votes, but you did.
Who is the president? It sure isn’t Hillary. Sorry, loser.
DeleteTrump was right about one thing. The record low unemployment for women.
ReplyDeleteDemocrats all had a big laugh and shared high fives at Trump's expense on that line. Trump didn't realize how important he was in directly creating new jobs for 117 women in Congress.
He should probably fire his speechwriter.
I think Trump came off well tonight. He said a lot of the right things and you can't deny that even the Democrats were cheering for him to. He is becoming one of the greatest leaders in a generation and we should be thankful that he is standing up for the right things like more medical care and more security. That is my America!
ReplyDeleteTrump won tonight, without question.
ReplyDeleteA few good comments here but largely I would say a reasonable discussion of politics is above the head of most of these participants.
ReplyDeleteYou losers. The insurance companies won, again. Deal with it.
ReplyDeleteWho in hell was the cheap Oprah Winfrey impersonator ? What office does she hold ? What free shit did she give out to the studio audience to have to sit there and listen to that bullshit crap ??
ReplyDeleteAs long as AOC is going full bore Socialist... no chance of Trump losing 2020.
ReplyDeleteWay over her head - and full of hatred- AOC has made the pendulum swing so far left that it will swing just as far right with America’s support.
Laughed at in mockery by businesses- to fully appreciate her brand she will continue to be colored to Venezuela politics.
As far as the Dems’ response- Abrams is so far in debt she makes anyone holding a dollar look rich.
It feels like Reagan never really left...
Super Dave, I read the transcript too.
ReplyDeleteSo what the President's speech boils down to is...
"While I'm in Office, don't do what my Republican Party did for the eight years President Obama was in Office, that's bad for the Country!"
Am I right?
Partisan politics is about the only place people can LOSE and still be "rising stars".
ReplyDeleteStacey Abrams
Jason Kander
The list goes on and on.
They never go away.
Why did the Dems pick this gap toothed loser for their rebuttal? She couldn't even win office with Oprah's support and every fraudulent Atlanta vote the Democrat voting machine could manufacture.
ReplyDeleteTo all the Trump haters...what, specifically has the guy done that is so bad? Yeah, he bloviates but so did Obama. It's too easy to blame the guy on top, its congress that is taking us to the woodshed and abusing us to no end. They can't balance a budget and borrow without the people's consent. Whether you agree or disagree with Trump is almost irrelevant. Pay attention, sooner or later the irresponsible fiscal policy of the government will make all of the current drama seem like a pleasant pastime.
ReplyDeleteThe giant man-baby must have used an extra strong adhesive to keep his dentures in place. He still slurred his way through another dull and useless speech. He proposed these thing in his last SOTU address, and then quickly forgot to implement them and follow up. The next shinning object on twitter will distract him and we will be right back to covefee & hamburders by the end of the week. It was great to see his overlord Nancy behind him pulling his chain.
ReplyDelete8:00am and you'll be doing what sitting around twiddling your dick again all day?
ReplyDelete"Did Stacy Abrams really "knock it out of the park" and give Chris Matthews a little tingle down his leg?"
ReplyDeleteMAttews is getting old. That was a tinkle down his leg, not a tingle.
Viva Trump 2020. No more frijoles & huevos. More steak on the plate. Gracias President Trump & MLK. Living the Dream!
ReplyDeleteAngela K at 11:00PM
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! You just set women BACK with your illogical statement..."I guess that is the true Kansas City, men who are afraid that women taking charge of their own bodies.."
FACT: A woman who takes charge of her own body doesn't need an abortion, and certainly would never wait until the 3rd trimester to take charge of an unborn baby's life and snuff it out.
Better luck next time, Angela K.
So what did America think?
ReplyDelete76% thought the speech was good on a CBS poll. That’s encouraging..
AOC brings hate and nothing else. Her hatred towards America is apparent. Even Polosi mocks her.
Did anyone attend this last night in KC? Just wondering, miserable night to be out.
