Democrats turn on each other over Trump address stunts

Democratic establishment, progressives clash on party direction, messaging after Trump's congressional address

 By Danielle Wallace Fox News
Published March 6, 2025 8:18am EST

Democrats displayed their internal party divisions in the wake of President Donald Trump's first address to Congress.

Democrats who are a part of leadership or more aligned with the establishment are clashing with progressives, many of whom heckled Trump throughout his more than 90-minute speech on Tuesday. The party is facing pressure from grassroots organizations to take a more combative approach – in lieu of decorum – to the Trump administration's dismantling of the federal bureaucracy.

While moderate Democrats are frustrated over the progressives' disruptions, progressives complained about a lack of direction and clear strategy ahead of Trump's first joint session address to Congress since he began his second term.

"People are pissed at leadership too," one senior House Democrat told Axios. "Everyone is mad at everyone."

Rep. George Latimer, D-N.Y., told Axios he believed the outbursts were "inappropriate."

"When a president — my president, your president — is speaking, we don't interrupt, we don't pull those stunts," he said.

New Democrat slogan. The Party of the 20 percent.

The stunts were lame and made the Dems look like petulant spoiled liberal prep school brats.

Instead of wearing pink and holding up ping pong paddles, start winning elections.  Let's see if Dem losing is as transitory as inflation.

It did look like bingo night at the rest home.  The poor old black dude shaking his cane and yelling "Get off my lawn"

In 46 days, the Democrats have done far more damage to their own party than Republicans could ever hope to do. 

They are lost and self imploding.

A line to stand in to off themselves...or a hotline to call.  I'd support either.

Meh, whatever.

It doesn't really matter if they're clashing on style, because they still vote in lockstep.
