Democrat Lawmaker Praises Historic Trump Speech, “Powerful”

Uncategorized

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) complimented President Trump on his State of the Union address on Tuesday night, saying it was “very powerful” when he honored veterans in attendance.

“I think he was able to maintain energy through it. I mean he’s 80 years old. I thought it was very powerful to honor a lot of the veterans there,” Fetterman said, according to Fox News.

Fetterman called out his fellow Democrats for yelling and screaming during Trump’s speech.

“I don’t care if it’s a Republican or Democrat, it’s the president. Just don’t do that,” Fetterman said.

Trump, now the second most senior president in American history at 79, delivered the longest State of the Union in American history on Tuesday. His speech went for one hour and 48 minutes, beating out President Bill Clinton’s previous record of 1 hour, 28 minutes and 49 seconds.

Fetterman was just one of a handful of Democrats to respond to inquiries from Fox News Digital after Trump’s speech.

Another, Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., said it had reinforced his belief that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) would need congressional reforms.

“DHS has to start acting lawfully, and they are not acting lawfully. They are literally in the middle of building warehouse prisons to detain legal immigrants to this country. That’s the definition of lawlessness,” Murphy said.

Fetterman said on CNN that the State of the Union can’t turn into the “Springer show.”

Fetterman said he stood up and clapped for Iryna Zarutska, the Ukrainian woman who was stabbed to death on the Charlotte light rail. Other Democrats did not join him in his applause.

He also said he celebrated the veterans in the audience. One received the Congressional Medal of Honor for his service during the Korean War.

Trump also honored a Venezuelan political prisoner during the speech.

Fetterman also questioned why there were attacks on Erika Kirk, who attended the address. Trump honored Erika, who lost her husband, the well-known political activist Charlie Kirk, last year.

Although Fetterman encouraged more kindness, he took a jab at those who disrupted the speech.

“And if I don’t agree, I certainly won’t yell, scream and disrupt the whole thing,” Fetterman said.
