Leavitt said Democrats showed how 'severely out of touch they are with the American public'​

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt blasted Democrats for acting like "children" at President Donald Trump’s Tuesday address to a joint session of Congress.


“The behavior of Democrats last night was completely disgraceful and demonstrated how severely out of touch they are with the American public," Leavitt told reporters Wednesday at a White House press briefing. "It was the most shameful moment in the history of presidential addresses and that beautiful chamber and what was supposed to be a unifying moment for our country."

Democrats started to boo Trump when he started his speech, prompting Republicans to respond in turn by chanting "USA." Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, became particularly rowdy during the address, and started to shout and wave his cane at Trump. Green's disruption prompted Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, R-La., to direct the Sergeant-at-Arms to remove Green from the address.

They're in self destruct mode. They finally managed to stage their own Capitol anarchy to where the Sergeant and Arms had to be called to subdue them. And these weren't angry civilians. They were the Democrat senate and congress. The leaders of the Democrat party. Jan 6th, meet Mar 4th.
