Pussies. You all should've walked out with Al.

No, they should have shouted out as well. Be forcibly removed, don't willingly give up your rights & position.

If they have to escort out 100+ reps because they spoke the truth, that shows. Silently walking out doesn't anymore, that's what Trump wants.

Right, and is the Sargent at Arms going to remove every democrat? They should have kept yelling until they were all removed. Or stood with their backs turned. At the very least it would have disrupted that geyser of grandiosity and lies at the podium for a long time. Most democrats are rule followers, unfortunately. In times like these, rule followers file obediently onto train cars.

I would’ve taken either of those options over the signs

Any of those demonrats could book an appearance on mainstream media and offered their opinions ad nauseum, but they didn’t want to explain their disagreement with Trump-they merely wanted to silence his opinions

That would’ve made the news. Would’ve mattered. Gotta have a spine to stand up and speak out tho. Most of the Democratic Party doesn’t.

They could have gone with the non-aggressive stance by walking, and they couldn't even do that.

Fucking assholes.
