The maxim that a picture is worth a thousand words was never truer than during President Trump’s first State of the Union address.
Everything in Washington these days has a partisan element to it, but last night was particularly striking.
Here is an incomplete list of unobjectionable topics that those sedentary congressional Democrats refused to celebrate: record low jobless rates for blacks and Hispanics; worker bonuses tied to the new tax cut law; 2.4 million jobs created last year; the need to respect the American flag; the need to fight the opioid epidemic; a more secure border; recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital; and, even, the national motto “In God We Trust.”
When the Congressional Black Caucus refuses to celebrate record low black unemployment, it makes you wonder what their organizational mission is.
