The 42-year-old Alabama senator is a rising Republican star but her kitchen table speech did not land well even in her own party

    The contrast of one of the greatest SOTU speeches in history to an utterly creepy call to gather a nut-fringe group to take over the Republican tent is a two piece diorama of what we are today. We are the UNITED States. I hope everyone spends some time thinking of what that means.

          I would respectfully disagree. The speechwriters crafted a fairly strong piece of rhetoric, but it wasn’t particularly substantial and the delivery was substandard, that’s just the honest truth.

          Also “one of the greatest in history because it happened now” is not a great argument. Nunc pro tunc, as they say.
