I'm going with 95 as the number in a one hour speech.
" President Trump received more than 110 rounds of applause and more than 70 standing ovations during Tuesday's State of the Union , according to CBS News analysis. Approximately 29.75 minutes (1,785 seconds) of the speech spent was spent applauding.
The Democrats often remained seated during the applause , although there were bipartisan ovations for some of the State of the Union guests."
Musta been sniffing during the 110 rounds of applause and 70 standing ovations - ya think?
One reason I refuse to watch these things. It is ridiculous. Almost comical, if not embarrassing. The president is supposed to be giving a speech about how the country is doing, not having a political rally and the people clapping and standing up after ever sentence make it unbearable to watch.
Obama used to sniff a lot because of his smoking and snorting cocaine. I used to count how many times Hillary coughed and did the head bob during her speeches. Looking at some important breaking news...Stormy Daniels has retracted her story about having an extra-marital affair with Trump. Stay tuned for further developments.
Stormy Daniels has retracted her story about having an extra-marital affair with Trump.
In other words, he gave her more money or threatened her. Tonight marks the first time since New Years Eve, that donny and malaria have been seen together, and she went to the SOTU in a separate car than cheatin' donny.
WTF was she stoned or something? She doesn't remember if she signed it? What a bunch of horseshit!
C'mon now, use your head, she did, so to speak.
It is common after receiving a check, to no longer discuss what you received a check for. If you do, you have possibly violated the non disclosure portion of the agreement and could ppossibly face consequences, such as losing your $130,000.00 pay out, or worse.
The only ones who got "played like a fiddle" were Trump's attorney and Trump himself, asz that's an expensive little diddle
Could someone get grandpa a cup of covfefe to sober his stupid ass up? How many trump towers or golf courses do you see downwind of a coal power plant? None.
I've been seeing this on Face Book this morning and thought that he coudldn't possibly have said that (the SOTU speech is on after my bedtime, so I didn't watch it).
Did he really say something that stupid? Clean coal? Is that like military intelligence...ya know...an oxymoron?
I've been seeing this on Face Book this morning and thought that he coudldn't possibly have said that (the SOTU speech is on after my bedtime, so I didn't watch it).
Coal is dead and even the industry knows it. Peabody, Arch, and Consol are selling off their coal assets and investing in green energy or shale gas.
The supposed clean coal plant in Alabama is DOA. It never started despite millions in DOE investment. It switched over to natural gas as the power source.
Now he wants to rebuild infrastructure? He said he was against it last year. And where is the money coming from to fix infrastructure in the first place?
1) Cut taxes, reducing the feds income.
2) Increase military spending by 5.6%
3) 25 BILLION for a wall that won't stop a damn thing
4) Infrastructure that will be around a trillion dollars
5) Upgrade our nuclear stockpiles which will cost nearly 750 billion dollars
His idea is to privatize that infrastructure. It is a non-starter on many fronts.
Trump's background is in marketing and he wants us to ignore the fact that his lies have absolutely no substance to them. He is a bullshit artist and a self-serving con-man who is only looking out for himself.
I would be money that he gets up in the morning and watches his own speech, and tells himself how great he was. Or.... Over the next few days he will tweet, "Everyone says that my SOTU speech was the greatest ever in the history of the universe!!!".
Yep, but the money still has to come from somewhere. People and materials aren't free.
The money needs to come from the government instead of selling critical parts of the country off to the highest bidder. Privatization has made the problems worse when public works are privatized because you cannot add a profit motive and not either raise the cost of the service or made the service much worse.
Rural infrastructure cannot be privatized because there isn't the income to pay for the needed investment.
Look into the states that tried to privatize roads and see what happened.
Even without the recent tax giveaway, there wasn't enough money. Our infrastructure needs 3 trillion dollars of investment to even bring it up to 1st world parity.
Yeah but you don’t seem to understand is we don’t have a choice it has to be done and will have to find a way to do it one where another I don’t give a shit where you think the money needs to come from it will happen or end up like your typical douchebag democrat cities and those foreign shitholes the Dems love.
Your lack of a rational argument and your personal attacks are noted.
No problem if you believe in spending like Democrats
How do you plan to fix the infrastructure problem? Who is going to pay for the recent tax cuts and the multi-billion dollar boost in military spending?
"Everyone says that my SOTU speech was the greatest ever in the history of the universe!!!"
And just three days later... What did trump say? "My SOTU speech was the most watched in history!!!!", which it wasn't but... Can this pathetic douchebag ever NOT kiss his own ass? My god he is pathetic.
This is embarrassing. The fact check will be humorous, but it’s Trump so who’s going to even notice? Hearing that Trump’s entire speech was laced with obvious lies is not shocking, it is in fact expected.
Watchung Trump complain about the country being so divided and wanting us to ignore the past and reunite with him and his policies is akin to John Dillinger giving a speech in support of gun control.
TRUMP: “After years and years of wage stagnation, we are finally seeing rising wages.”
THE FACTS: Actually, they are not rising any faster than they have before. Average hourly pay rose 2.5 percent in 2017, slightly slower than the 2.9 percent increase recorded in 2016.
Most economists say wages should increase at a faster rate as the unemployment rate drops. The unemployment rate stands at a 17-year low of 4.1 percent, but that has done little so far to spark rising wages.
The last time unemployment was this low, in the late 1990s, average hourly pay was rising at a 4 percent pace.
TRUMP: “We enacted the biggest tax cuts and reform in American history.”
THE FACTS: No truer now than in the countless other times he has said the same. The December tax overhaul ranks behind Ronald Reagan’s in the early 1980s, post-World War II tax cuts and at least several more.
TRUMP: “Our massive tax cuts provide tremendous relief for the middle class and small businesses.”
Middle-class households — defined as those making between roughly $49,000 and $86,000 a year — will see their tax bills drop by about $930, the Tax Policy Center calculates. That will lift their after-tax incomes by 1.6 percent.
The richest 1 percent, meanwhile, will save $51,140, lifting their after-tax incomes by 3.4 percent, or more than twice as much as the middle class.
TRUMP: “Many car companies are now building and expanding plants in the United States — something we have not seen for decades.”
THE FACTS: He’s wrong about recent decades. The auto industry has regularly been opening and expanding factories since before became president. Toyota opened its Mississippi factory in 2011. Hyundai’s plant in Alabama dates to 2005. In 2010, Tesla fully acquired and updated an old factory to produce its electric vehicles.
Trump also declared that “Chrysler is moving a major plant from Mexico to Michigan.” That’s not exactly the case, either. Chrysler announced it will move production of heavy-duty pickup trucks from Mexico to Michigan, but the plant is not closing in Mexico. It will start producing other vehicles for global sales and no change in its workforce is anticipated.
TRUMP: “Under the current broken system, a single immigrant can bring in virtually unlimited numbers of distant relatives.”
THE FACTS: It’s not happening because the waiting list is so long.
I could go on but there seems to be no point. There are people that just turn a blind eye to every lie he sputters and when confronted on them just turn to their hatred of Obama.
Democrats won't cheer for cheaper prescription drugs, defeating ISIS, jobs, or money in the pockets of the American workers, but spending more taxpayer dollars on the millitry gets them off their ass.
Democrats won't cheer for cheaper prescription drugs
They won't? You sure about that or are you just saying what you want to be true? Yep. My wife has been a nurse for 44 years and the price of prescription drugs has been climbing by leaps and bounds for the last 18 months. If it favors the rich, you can damn sure bet that donny will not do a thing to help the middle class. Hell, look at his tax plan, that's all the proof you need.

1) (See above post)
2) ISIS wouldn't have even existed had a REPUBLICAN not removed Saddam from power.
3) Jobs.. 15 million added under the previous admin, the longest period of job growth in the history of the nation.
4) The previous admin proposed tax cuts for the middle class three times and our republican congress shot them down every time because the cuts were not deep enough for the rich 1%. True story, go look it up.
5) We already have the biggest and best military in the world, by miles...we don't NEED to increase spending except where it is needed to maintain what we already have.
Your post is nothing but you screaming what you WANT to believe, nothing but hyperbole and BS.
Cheaper drugs? Gawd I hope so! Tricare took away my Nexium because it got too expensive and put me on some cheap generic that doesn't last thru the afternoon!
But I can see it now...military spending will go up but it won't be for veterans and their families. It will be for aircraft, boats, and tanks the military doesn't want
Our state attorney general Successfully went after and sued a pharmaceutical company that was overcharging medicaid recipients 1000%.
So our lawmakers, in their infinite wisdom decided to put up two bills for a vote that would strip him of power to go after companies like that.
It is a legal action, 12 years in the making, that Jim Hood says lawmakers are trying to undermine by introducing bills to undercut his ability to go after companies defrauding the state.
"Leave the AG alone. Let the Attorney General do his or her job. It's the job of the office," urged Hood.
It is a warning to lawmakers after his office recovered over $33 million from pharmaceutical manufacturer Watson Incorporated, now Actavis.
According to the AG, Watson inflated its Medicaid prices 1000 percent, costing the state taxpayers more than $7 million.
When the company reported Average Wholesale Prices (AWPs) attorneys found that Watson grossly exceeded the actual price the company charged its customers.
It resulted in Mississippi overpaying for prescription drugs for Medicaid recipients.
The trial court awarded the state statutory and punitive damages of $33,408,546.72.
But Hood is also frustrated over House Bills 1238 and 1475 which he says are aimed at stripping his office the power to prosecute and recover money from companies like Watson.
Republicans talk about fraud within the system yet turn around and undermine the ability to take action. It almost makes me think they want the fraud to continue, in that way they can keep demonizing a program they want to cut.

STOP exposing the 'right' for who and what they are
In all fairness, the left also indulges in thisas well, but to a far lesser extent
I would have thought you like BS. You supported it and took it happily for from 2008-2016. You even eagerly supported more of it but unfortunatelly for you that candidate lost. Now you continuosly dish out your own versionos BS almost daily
You don't have a rational response so you reply with more personal attacks. You may agree with Donald Trumps nearly constant lies and half truths but that doesn't mean that he is not lying.
Democrats looked like a bunch of Sour Pusses........Even when Trump talked about things that everyone should be happy about......They sat on their hands and scoffed.........Maybe they looked so Sour because all their doom and gloom predictions for a Trump Presidency have fallen on its face........
Unlike the Obama era......Now the argument is ......Who is responsible for all the Success???.....or.....The Prosperity and Success won't last.....
They are so Sour because they are worried about their Phony Baloney Jobs......That the people who have become dependent on their Government Tit.......Have been weened to self sufficiency and opportunity.......It's a great day to be an American!
If the best complaint from the left is that Trump sniffed too much......I'm Pretty Happy.....
Yup. What I'm wondering is, did he scratch his ass? After all, sniffing is one thing but scratching his ass is obviously a signal to the evil RUSSIANS. That would certainly indicate that he's a RUSSIAN AGENT. OH MY GOD, HE'S A RUSSIAN AGENT! WHAT WILL WE DO? WHAT WILL WE DO???
For those who actually think that sniffing or scratching his ass really means anything derogatory, as you have attempted to imply, here's a message: It's time to grow up now children and at least try to be adults.
Nothing but words written by other people delivered flatly from the teleprompter. Nothing he really cared about (except the clapping and ovations, which he tried to help along). He could have been reading from a textbook for all the enthusiasm he showed. Old news now, back to Russia, he never lets a news cycle last more than a few hours, even his 'good' ones. Who cares what a liar says? He will either tweet the opposite or do the opposite.
Meh, Obama once set what surely is a Narcissistic record in a 40 minute speech where he said, "Me," "Myself," or "I" like 200 times. That's once every 12 seconds or so.
Ah! The Tv shows a a slobbering of a democrat. And its the camera or the lighting ar some other anamoly. When it showed the Republican candidate in a way that was unflattering or compromising such as the debate pictures, tgere was no way it was camera angles or focal lengths.
This just in... Due to the reaction of the democrats to the SOTU address they have decided that their mascot no longer accuratel represents them. They are in the process of eliminating the donkey for a new mascot. Here is a video of the more appropriate mascot
He's up to 37 already. I'm going to have to recalibrate my prediction.
" President Trump received more than 110 rounds of applause and more than 70 standing ovations during Tuesday's State of the Union , according to CBS News analysis. Approximately 29.75 minutes (1,785 seconds) of the speech spent was spent applauding.

He's clapping for himself. I don't recall any other state of the union speech where the POTUS did that. What an ass.
Foolish comment. He was applauding the people he was honoring.
I didn't even pay attention during Obama's or Bill Clinton's state of the union speeches . They are pointless self-advertising.
The clapping into the microphone did get old fast....
Skirting the CoC [ph]
The check from Trump cleared.
In other words, he gave her more money or threatened her. Tonight marks the first time since New Years Eve, that donny and malaria have been seen together, and she went to the SOTU in a separate car than cheatin' donny.

On Kimmel last night she would neither confirm or deny anything except to point out that the statement was signed
and she said the signature didn't look like hers.
WTF was she stoned or something?
She doesn't remember if she signed it?
What a bunch of horseshit!
C'mon now, use your head, she did, so to speak.

Okay, so what we have learned here so far is that from a legal perspective she can't be relied on to tell the truth.
What else is she lying about Dave?
...."Beautiful, Clean, Coal...".....
Could someone get grandpa a cup of covfefe to sober his stupid ass up? How many trump towers or golf courses do you see downwind of a coal power plant? None.

Where exactly is all this money coming from?
Oh, the middle class, as usual, never mind.
His idea is to privatize that infrastructure. It is a non-starter on many fronts.

I completely agree with you. That's why I am asking where this money will come from... The debt is getting ready to explode.
Even without the recent tax giveaway, there wasn't enough money. Our infrastructure needs 3 trillion dollars of investment to even bring it up to 1st world parity.
from a third world President
Absolutely. To be fair, I was going from what the last admin proposed.
Your lack of a rational argument and your personal attacks are noted.
How do you plan to fix the infrastructure problem? Who is going to pay for the recent tax cuts and the multi-billion dollar boost in military spending?
That is not a rational answer. We don't fund infastrucrture solutions in the US with donations.
I N Joy sticking it in their face
Wrong president, obamas last sotu speech was 2 years ago
R U Actually a Pediatrician from Arkansas ?
cause you're making me feel like a pediatrician, as I have very little patients for you
I only know respectable women
Gramma's medicare, silly!
And just three days later... What did trump say? "My SOTU speech was the most watched in history!!!!", which it wasn't but... Can this pathetic douchebag ever NOT kiss his own ass? My god he is pathetic.

They all ready started.
Lie after lie.
I could go on but there seems to be no point. There are people that just turn a blind eye to every lie he sputters and when confronted on them just turn to their hatred of Obama.
Sad really.
Where ?
Democrats, it's okay to applaud for objectively good news for the American people and things like the flag.
you still represent America and Americans, as much it pains you
Democrats won't cheer for cheaper prescription drugs, defeating ISIS, jobs, or money in the pockets of the American workers, but spending more taxpayer dollars on the millitry gets them off their ass.
They won't? You sure about that or are you just saying what you want to be true? Yep.

But I can see it now...military spending will go up but it won't be for veterans and their families. It will be for aircraft, boats, and tanks the military doesn't want
I did see 35 dollars more in my paycheck this week so there's that but....
I saw where the Taliban is gaining ground in Afghanistan
If you dont want that $35 that Trump arranged for you to get you csn always send it to me

Maybe they want the fraud to continue because they're getting kickbacks from the thieving pharma companies
Oddly, our attorney general is one of only a few elected Democrats in the state.
Waving the flag only appeals to the simple.
You may like people to treat you like a mushroom but there are others who don't enjoy being fed a constant diet of BS.

Well Donny, if we can peel you off the golf course maybe something WOULD get done.

MSN Poll:
What was your reaction to President Trump's first State of the Union speech?
Are you better off than you were a year ago?
How do you think Trump's proposed policies will move the country?
27,947 responses
Funny, for most of 2016 polls indicated only 20 to 25% thought the country was heading in the right direction.
Obama was president in all of 2016
Now ..... how Trump breaths during a speech.....IS WRONG !
Liberals are sooooo Fucking desperate. It's really SAD to watch !
I'm ALMOST feeling sorry for them.
An article on sniffing?
NCFOM ?
Yup. What I'm wondering is, did he scratch his ass? After all, sniffing is one thing but scratching his ass is obviously a signal to the evil RUSSIANS. That would certainly indicate that he's a RUSSIAN AGENT. OH MY GOD, HE'S A RUSSIAN AGENT! WHAT WILL WE DO? WHAT WILL WE DO???
For those who actually think that sniffing or scratching his ass really means anything derogatory, as you have attempted to imply, here's a message: It's time to grow up now children and at least try to be adults.
I'll agree it's silly
butt
what if he scratched his ass then sniffed...
On a tad more serious note, I don't fricken care about his damn sniffing, cause if it's a drug problem, I would be relieved, cause
his behavior needs a whole lot of Explanation, imho
Yep. An article about sniffing. It is the best Trump has to offer.
Maybe he will debate religion with you some time, but I doubt it.
I hope nothing falls out. You need all of it.
You are boring.
I seeded an article today that lists about a dozen things Trump said in his speech that have been fact checked as misleading or false.
That is what I think of his speech.
The Republicans had to crash their damn train to change the subject away from Trump
Nothing but words written by other people delivered flatly from the teleprompter. Nothing he really cared about (except the clapping and ovations, which he tried to help along). He could have been reading from a textbook for all the enthusiasm he showed. Old news now, back to Russia, he never lets a news cycle last more than a few hours, even his 'good' ones. Who cares what a liar says? He will either tweet the opposite or do the opposite.
Meh, Obama once set what surely is a Narcissistic record in a 40 minute speech where he said, "Me," "Myself," or "I" like 200 times. That's once every 12 seconds or so.
Impressive Narcissism there to be sure.
Ah! The Tv shows a a slobbering of a democrat. And its the camera or the lighting ar some other anamoly. When it showed the Republican candidate in a way that was unflattering or compromising such as the debate pictures, tgere was no way it was camera angles or focal lengths.
This just in... Due to the reaction of the democrats to the SOTU address they have decided that their mascot no longer accuratel represents them. They are in the process of eliminating the donkey for a new mascot. Here is a video of the more appropriate mascot
