I will be watching SOTU because there will be more Dems in the room than Repugs...

...meaning his speech will be immediately reacted to by a hostile audience. THIS is must-watch TV!

fingers to her eyes when he comes up to the podium. That would shake Trump up.

I'm also hoping that the camera's train on her and that we see her roll her eyes when he lies during the speech.

If it doesn't happen at the SOTU Address tonight - watch for it on SNL on Saturday nights opening.

I know there are those who value civility above all, but I believe in public shame. Public shame shapes behavior. People will behave worse if they have anonymity (or in this case, republican enablers and democrats who are polite). Trump doesn't deserve this pomp and circumstance if he is going to stand up there and lie. Let our boldest new members fact check this liar-in-chief in real time. Then, I will sit back and enjoy listening to the republicans lose their minds and remember how they supported Mr. 'You Lie" Wilson.
