Joe Biden and Katie Britt

Dear Commons Community,

Alabama Senator Katie Britt is getting a lot of criticism for her bizarre delivery of the Republican rebuttal to Joe Biden’s State Of The Union address — but not from the president himself.  As reported by The Huffington Post.

Britt’s performance was brutally mocked by observers online, who said Britt seemed happy and cheerful one moment and almost tearful and angry the next. For example. 

Republican Charlie Kirk, founder of the far-right Turning Point USA youth group, was critical. “I’m sure Katie Britt is a sweet mom and person, but her speech is not what we need,” he said in a post on X (formerly Twitter). “Joe Biden just declared war on the American right and Katie Britt is talking like she’s hosting a cooking show, whispering about how Democrats’ don’t get it.'”

Biden’s reaction was more tactful. After a reporter asked Biden if he saw Senator Britt’s rebuttal, the president admitted seeing “a little bit on TV.”

When the reporter asked the president’s thoughts, he said, “I thought she was a very talented woman, [but] I didn’t understand the connection she was making.”

Biden is a class act. 

Trump can learn something from him.

Tony
