Who here skipped Trump's SOTU?

[Botany]

[MoseShrute]

1. I missed it

Wife and I went to watch our Cowboys beat West Virginia in basketball.

[Trueblue1968]

185. I would not watch that worthless piece of garbage.

[Scrivener7]

2. I did! What would be the point of watching it other than hope for a trainwreck?

[Glorfindel]

3. I skipped it. That "thing" has nothing to say that I wish to hear.

[CTyankee]

4. never planned on watching in the first place. I was also busy frying ice.

[sop]

5. To remain somewhat sane, I make it a rule to never watch Trump speak, will only read excerpts from the transcripts.

[Emile]

6. I couldn't watch some blathering idiot

blowing smoke out his ass for two hours.

[Wuddles440]

7. My exact sentiments!

[jonstl08]

8. Volunteered to work

Was supposed to be off volunteered to work the night shift at the tax office so to avoid the speech.

[newdeal2]

9. Not gonna watch him ever

I looked through a live blog and DU while watching basketball. Got the gist of it: lots of lies and self-promotion

[chicoescuela]

40. Exactly what I did. Far less painful

[The Blue Flower]

10. I had a book to finish

Besides, I knew it would be a N. Korea kind of audience and I couldn't stomach it.

[BonnieJW]

108. I did laundry

Sooooo much better than watching a lying demented pedophile

[Native]

11. ✅️

[bagimin]

12. Dammit, missed it!

Oh dear lordy.

[RainCaster]

13. I didn't waste my time

Life is too precious to waste watching an idiot embarrassing himself.

[twodogsbarking]

14. I don't watch reruns. Especially when it sucked the first time.

[The Wizard]

15. My doctor told me

to change the channel when I hear his voice or see his face. He gives this advice to all patients being treated for hypertension.

[Attilatheblond]

159. My doc said the same, but added: Keep going to the protests, they are REALLY helping you conditions.

[DeeDeeNY]

215. Agreed! That voice and face are nauseating to me.

Watching that speech would be hazardous to my health.

[Pepsidog]

16. My son had it on in the kitchen while I was in my den watching Turkish TV series with English subtitles. I had to put on

my noise canceling headphones so my head wouldn’t explode hearing his whiney voice spout lie after lie.

[Auggie]

17. My perfect counter programming choice: Queer Eye (Netflix)

[PCIntern]

18. Me! Me! Me!

Can’t look at him for any length of time. Never could even in the 1980’s.

[BumRushDaShow]

19. I went to bed just before 9 pm EST

but normally keep the radio on our local news station overnight, with volume down real low. Fell asleep right before he even started but then woke up around 10:24 pm to hear his nightmarish voice rambling on and exclaimed "OMFG he's still going!", immediately reached over, turned the radio off, and went back to sleep.

[mwooldri]

56. Similar story here.

I have to be up at 3am for work. So bed early. Wifey sadly has taken to watching Fox News Lite (aka NewsNation) for Cuomo and somehow tolerates the others (ex Fox News "hosts" ) being on (probably cos she's actually asleep by the time Cuomo is finished). To counter this I have white noise playing in my Bluetooth sleep mask. That man doesn't stand a chance.

[FakeNoose]

182. Same here. My mom always said ...

... "If there's nothing on TV, read a good book!" And that's what I did.

[BumRushDaShow]

187. I have the eBook version of "1929" by Andrew Ross Sorkin

and had started it when I was on jury duty last fall and need to get back to it! Sorkin was able to make a gripping literary masterpiece out of a historic event.

[dem4decades]

20. I would have watched it, if they'd guaranteed it would be his last.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

72. May it be so!

[yaesu]

21. I did what the entire Democratic House and Senate should have done

Skipped Hitlers liefest.

[Homoudont]

22. no Streaming service

I don't get rabbit ears because I am too far from a metro area. I only subscribe to a streaming service (hulu) 6 months a year because all I watch is football. But even if I did have access to watch it I wouldn't because I have better things to do then listen to Trump. Better things like literally anything.

[lark]

23. Us - me and my hubs.

First time ever a SOTU wasn't on in our house. I finally convinced him not to watch it - yay~~ He hates krasnov, but always felt he should watch so he'd know for himself. Now, he's realized it's a bad use of time and not doing it was so much better!

[DFW]

24. I did. Of all the things I contemplate doing at 3 A.M.

Listening to one and a half hours of Trump is not one of them.

[CapnSteve]

25. I make a point of not listening to pedophiles.

nt

[Ocelot II]

26. I skipped it. Good God in butter, why would I waste an instant on that mess?

I'm old. My time is limited and I'm not spending any more of it than absolutely necessary listening to or watching that festering fat heap of evil.

[Botany]

47. "Good God in Butter" that is a brilliant line.

Whomever came up with it needs a Noble Prize, the Heisman Trophy, and the Pulitzer Prize too.

[Diamond_Dog]

49. I have to admit I have borrowed that line a few times. Botany.

I also cannot stomach that lying POS so, no, I did not watch it.

[Ritabert]

27. I watched a new series "Law & Order: Epstein Victims Unit"

[LetMyPeopleVote]

28. I gladly skipped this stupidity

I watched John Oliver and 4 episodes of Jeopardy

[Trueblue Texan]

29. I didn't watch it.

Wanted to keep my dinner down.

[C_U_L8R]

30. Didn't miss a thing

Skipped the speech and judging from the lack of online reaction, the whole thing looks like it was a total bore for republicans and democrats alike. Trump is sundowning.

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

31. When it comes to Krasnov, I prefer STFU over SOTU.

I was happy to miss that two hour barrage of bullshit.

[Conjuay]

32. Nah, I was watching "Waking Ned"

Which was quite a strange movie.

Not as strange as trump, but still a strange movie.

[Texin]

33. I didn't miss it. I declined to be held hostage for nearly two hours of the American version of a Kim Jong Un

propaganda harangue.

[Joinfortmill]

34. Nope. Ugh, just the thought of listening to him ramble on incoherently makes me cringe.

[ProfessorGAC]

35. Hand Raised

No interest in hearing him lie.

[GiqueCee]

36. It's as though...

... someone scraped the worst of humanity's instincts off the floor of a gas station bathroom, stuffed it into a rancid sausage skin, and taught it to make noises with its face.*

Why would anyone willingly subject themselves to such embarrassment?

(*Paraphrasing a colorful description I saw here some years ago)

[Klondike Kat]

37. The sound of his voice makes my teeth itch

It would take an astronomical amount of cash for me to listen to him (hey, a guy has to pay his utility bill somehow).

[Ilsa]

38. I checked a couple of times to see if it was over.

Then I watched some recorded programs. I can't listen to his lies. I predicted a two hour speech and was certainly close enough.

[Yonnie3]

39. When was it on? Last night?

I must have missed it. I had absolutely nothing to do.

I am just lucky I guess.

[lamp_shade]

41. MEEEEeeeee

[obnoxiousdrunk]

42. Hand Up.

[wendyb-NC]

43. I did't

I can't stand to hear his voice, let alone look at him for 2 seconds. I'm glad that didn't.

[Dave Id]

44. I didn't watch it but...

I sure as hell didn't miss it. Fuck Trump and anyone who voted for the pedophile rapist.

[ChicagoTeamster]

45. Me. But I watched Kimmel's coverage afterwards.

Heard about the “black people aren’t monkeys sign”. Who was the girl that Trump said her teachers were trying to turn her trans and when Trump had her family stand up she clapped with her two fingers. She wasn't taken away, she willingly ran away from home to escape them because they denied her care and probably worse.

And, that's a private family matter. I'm sure the girl would have preferred to maintain her privacy like most teenagers but her parents obviously liked basking in the MAGA glow.

Her father gave her a dirty look. It was obviously all staged. She should have yelled out "what are you going to do? Beat me like you do at home?". Her parents wanted her to lie. So even if her lie wasn't true, neither was their BS for Trump.

And there was a guy standing next to her father who was also scowling at her. Was that their lying pastor?

[generalbetrayus]

151. That made me so sad and so angry at the same time. I have a beautiful trans granddaughter and her parents

accept her and would never do anything like that to her. I could tell the girl wanted to be anywhere else but there.

[ChicagoTeamster]

157. It was painful to watch. I think everyone could see with their own eyes how staged that was. And, she wasn't part of it.

But parents who weren't decent enough to consider her physical and mental health wouldn't care about using her as a prop either.

[AverageOldGuy]

46. We skipped it and will not watch or read commentary on it

[Prairie_Seagull]

48. The SOTU was on?

Damn, missed it.

haha

[Clouds Passing]

50. 🙋🏼

[Martin Eden]

51. I watched the alternative programming

And if there wasn't "State of the Swamp" or "The People's State of the Union" I would not have subjected myself to the lies of that orange slug, nor the standing ovations of his corrupt minions.

[Botany]

61. Netflix had on a documentary on Homo naledi that is older than Homo sapiens by @ least 150,000 years ....

Last edited Wed Feb 25, 2026, 11:37 AM - Edit history (1)

…. whose bones were discovered in a cave in S. Africa in 2013. They were about half the size of us
but had complex behaviors such as burying their dead. The cave had a very small opening so the
paleontologist had to hire women who were small enough, were brave enough to crawl down and then
climb back up a very tight opening to the burial chamber, and they had to know science along with
how to excavate the bones too.

Just the thought of crawling into that cave gave me chills.

[UpInArms]

52. ✋🏼

nm

[Greybnk48]

53. I did. I'm going to watch Rachel's panel discussion right now over coffee.

I can't listen to that oily-voiced liar any more.

[catbyte]

54. ...

[Marthe48]

55. I didn't watch

I know he's a liar and a thief. I wouldn't let someone like that in my house and if I were on the street and saw him approaching, I'd cross to the other side. He isn't part of my real life. I can be aware and active in politics and live a life of service without recognizing his existence or giving him oxygen.

[SergeStorms]

57. Oh, was that on TV recently?

Yeah, I had to rearrange my socks according to age last night, so I was pretty busy.

I hope it went well.

[MiHale]

58. I'm still sane...didn't even think of watching...

[SouthBayDem]

59. I listened to APM's Marketplace instead

Here's the episode: https://www.marketplace.org/episode/2026/02/24/were-trying-to-control-what-we-can-control-a-fed-president-reflects

[Omnipresent]

60. I couldn't put blinders on and cup my ears.

I need to be aware of everything this modern day Hitler has to say.
He pretty much lied and exaggerated everything to make himself look good and Democrats look bad.

[tonekat]

62. I avoided any exposure to the Creep.

I avoided the late nite shows too, just to not have to hear about the goddamn moron. I may watch them later today.

[Montauk6]

63. Trump's SOTU... what's that?

Oh wait! Is it a new series on Gas Station TV? Nah, I have a hybrid so haven't been to pump as much.

But seriously, no I did skip it. I can't stand the guy, moreover, if you've seen one speech, you've seen them all. Whoever his speechwriter is has the cushiest job in the world.

I may watch Reese Waters or Destiny's watchalongs on YouTube but the whole thing organically?? Nah, fam, I'm good.

[angrychair]

64. Didn't watch a single second

And never will.

[TBF]

65. I'm not interested in anything he has to say -

release the unredacted epstein files - in their entirely

[EuterpeThelo]

66. I watched The People's State of the Union instead

Was happy to see so many of our Dem lawmakers participate.

[BarbD]

103. "These are not normal times."

So said Senator Chris Murphy who spoke at the Peoples State of the Union sponsored by Move-On and Meidas Touch Network.

[MaineNative]

67. I was too busy

sticking hot pokers in my eyes.

[BattleRow]

68. Carcinogenic air( waves) pollution

[Botany]

76. Yup! Trump is a cancer.

The UN’s Human Rights Commission are now talking about the Trump/Epstein/Putin International
Child sex trafficking ring as a crime against humanity and femicide (killing women).

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=21041741

[state of stupid]

69. I have more important things to do like watching grass grow or gargling razor blades.

[MontanaMama]

70. Didn't watch.

What would be the point?

[Delmette2.0]

71. Me!

[LittleGirl]

73. I can't hear his voice

Much less his lies and boasting.

I watched Leanne Morgan on Netflix. She joked about men’s silly habits and menopause. Topics I’m willing to laugh about. I won’t watch him and even clips of him, I mute.

[City Lights]

74. Me!

No amount of money could have persuaded me to watch that shitshow.

[WestMichRad]

75. Oy!

Not gonna waste my time on that blithering idiot.

[democrank]

77. Put me in the didn't-watch column.

Why listen to a Miller-driven lie-a-thon?

[Jilly_in_VA]

78. Me

And I second everything else that was said here.

[Wednesdays]

79. I was pushing the SOTU alternatives, so naturally I skipped TSF's shitshow. nt

[cate94]

80. I did

I can’t look at his face, much less listen to his jibberish.

[Fil1957]

81. Call me a wimp, but I don't handle pain and suffering very well. So no, I didn't watch it. I'd rather have a root canal.

[ChazInAz]

82. Oh yes!

I'd rather have a high colonic enema or a colonoscopy sans anesthesia.

[Nixie]

83. Me, but now I hear the recaps -- the screeching insults and

the WWE type presentation that this evil clown has turned our politics into. Seeing JD and Mike Johnson smirking in the background. What a horrible shame.

[AllaN01Bear]

84. me. myself and i.:)

[Playingmantis]

85. I did..

Why listen to hours of self praise, lies and malicious attacks.

[TommieMommy]

86. Yeppers I watched Forensic Files

[Danmel]

87. I'd rather stick pins in my eyes

Than listen to him.

[MurrayDelph]

88. Didn't miss it

Didn't watch it, didn't miss it.

[Rebl2]

89. Why would

I watch a man that (has 34 felony convictions) stands up there telling multiple lies and watch people cheering for that. No thanks.

[DinahMoeHum]

90. Watched alternative SOTUs on YouTube

then watched the Lincoln Project's take on the fuckery at the Capitol

[Six117]

91. No way I was watching that garbage.

All the lying makes my teeth itch.

[DownriverDem]

92. Instead I watched

the People's SOTU speeches in front of the Capitol. The Dems were there with their guests.

[bif]

93. When was it?

[MineralMan]

94. I listened to the first half hour on my local NPR station.

Then, I turned the radio off, rolled over in bed, and went to sleep.

My wife, on the other hand, watched the entire thing on MSNOW. This morning, she said, "I should have done what you did."

[Bobstandard]

95. Couldn't face it. Can't stand even looking at him.

[Wolf Frankula]

96. Didn't watch tRump

fart through his mouth. NBA games are better.

[cab67]

97. I can't listen to him for any length of time.

[Roc2020]

98. I literally saw maybe 5 secs

and that was between changing channels. 5 seconds I can never get back. ugh disgusting!!!

[sarchasm]

99. 🤚

not present

[Quiet Em]

100. My hand is raised.

I did not waste my time listening to a con artist lie for two hours.

[BigmanPigman]

101. Stopped watching all of them since 2000.

It's better for my mental health.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

102. oh snap

I missed it, I don think I missed a thing

[colorado_ufo]

104. I fell asleep as soon as he started talking.

Husband watched it. I woke up for a few seconds now and then to catch things like "blood spurting" and tariffs and fell back to sleep.

Does that count for awake or skipped it?

[LAS14]

105. Me. nt

[Mopar151]

106. Watched Oak Island

The story grows ever more complex....
There are staff archaeologists now, and an onsite lab.

[byronius]

113. Got a link? That sounds interesting.

[Chemical Bill]

178. I said they will find treasure...

before TSF says anything honest or constructive.

[IbogaProject]

107. Skipped

I didnt "miss" it I just prefer to read transcripts or in this case read unbiased or foreign fact checks.

[Dulcinea]

109. I did.

I gave myself a facial & read a book. I knew if I watched it, I'd get mad & yell at the TV like my father used to. Did I miss anything?

[mac56]

110. My sock drawer wasn't going to sort itself.

[NewLarry]

111. I've heard him lie before

No need to sit through more.

[virgdem]

112. Raises hand here. Didnt waste my time with that

waste of space.

[ellemb]

114. Me

[greatauntoftriplets]

115. Me.

No way was I watching that lie fest.

[Tree Lady]

116. I skipped it, watched some of the democrats on YouTube

Then continued series I am watching.

[kentuck]

117. I was watching basketball.

Much more interesting.

[LogDog75]

118. Me!

I can't stand listening to someone who has trouble putting a lucid, complete sentence together. Also, the way he talks is like a used car salesman trying to sell a used car to a used car salesman.

[emmybee43]

119. I watched Paradise

First three episodes of season two dropped on hulu.

[allegorical oracle]

120. I watched the classic film "Gaslight" on TCM, instead. Knew I'd catch the

forever-liar on video clips today. So, for me it was "Gaslight" vs. being gaslighted in real time.

[Ol Janx Spirit]

121. Ooo!

[llmart]

137. Are you channeling "Welcome Back Kotter"?

[B.See]

122. watched grass grow.

[Buddyzbuddy]

123. I chose to have a colonoscopy while getting a root canal while listening to nails scraped across a chalkboard, instead.

[vapor2]

171. OMG! lol

[Callie1979]

124. Watched pro wrestling. Much more believable than listening to trump

[Felicita]

125. I watched Robert DeNiro

and the mayors of Minneapolis and Chicago at one of the alternative venues, "The State of the Swamp". All gave excellent speeches.

[mike_c]

126. I didn't even remember it was on...

...until about midnight. I checked DU for commentary and was surprised at how little there was.

[mgardener]

127. My kitchen floor

Needed a scrubbing.

[samsingh]

128. me

[Warren_Pointe]

129. I can't stand to even hear that idiot's voice.

Hard Pass.

[charliea]

130. Didn't waste my time

I was assembling my new desktop computer, for Linux of course...

[Figarosmom]

131. 👋 i just cannot abide hearing his voice. Puts my stomach in knots. Nt

[Talitha]

132. I did not watch or listen. No clips or news, either.

Got the AP's transcript this morning, though - will read later.

[Colorado Liberal]

133. Missed it

I've never been so happy to have to work late....

[Owl]

134. Me!

[CousinIT]

135. I watched Miles Taylor's "State of the Swamp" instead.

And I fell asleep about 2 hours into it! When ya ass gets old, that's what happens.

Had I listened to the lying PedoFelon, I'd have been up all night mad as hell at his sociopathic goddamned lies about everything.

I think I made the right choice for my health and sanity.

[llmart]

136. ME!!!

I don't have enough years left on this earth to waste a millisecond on the lying pedophile.

[NNadir]

138. Include me. I did something beautiful instead.

In Lieu: No Prisoner Be.

[pat_k]

139. Seeing/hearing him makes me nauseous -- actually nauseous.

For my health and sanity I must minimize exposure and do my best to avoid images and clips. It's bad enough when I subject myself to skimming transcripts. Actually hearing that voice?? I can't afford the nightmares.

[FireUpChips10]

140. Had to give my pet raccoon a sponge bath!

[mdbl]

141. Proud to say I watched none of it and don't care what he says - even a little.

I watch what he does. His comments and actions prove his verbiage means nothing. Why waste time listening to it.

[Sogo]

142. I did, and I'm so glad of it!

[kimbutgar]

143. I watched the defiance one and skipped watching the 🍊🐖💩

But at one point they showed the speech in the corner of their event with subtitles and it made no sense.

[EndlessMaze]

144. I watched about an hour I think...

I had to turn it off (I think) when he yelled at the Democrats for not standing up for his lie about protecting US citizens not illegal aliens. Regardless, I could only take an hour of his bullshit.

[MuirHero]

145. No way could I listen to 107 minutes of the Orange Shitgibbon's verbal diarrhea.

I watched "State of the Swamp" on Defiance.com that was emceed by Miles Taylor.

[Beacool]

146. I didn't watch it.

Why was there any reason to listen to his self-aggrandizing proclamations, exaggerations, fantasies, and outright lies? Trump has always been the same. A bad seed who bullied others since early childhood, a cruel man who relishes belittling and mocking others to hide his insecurities and inadequacies. I can't find one redeeming quality in the morally bankrupt lowlife.

[Jimmy76]

147. can NOT listen or look

I told by wife I would need money to watch, $10 per minute, nobody went for it though, huh.......

[maspaha]

148. I watched college basketball instead...

[DiverDave]

149. Nope

I dislike his speaking style.
And I smoked some home grown and read my book.

[generalbetrayus]

150. My girlfriend and I made it through the verbal diarrhea OJC spewed last night until 10:18 PM EST

when we couldn't take it anymore. She switched the TV to the Utah - CU women's basketball game. Sadly, our beloved women Buffs lost a close one. Last night was an all-around suck.

[Flash953]

152. I watched a happy movie about a boy and his Dog.

Theres a point when the outrage about all the different things going on becomes too much. I trust the BBC , and Freedom now to give me information with integrity.

[carpetbagger]

153. Not completely.

I checked the NBC and CBC websites before bed to see if there was anything of substance.

[Exp]

154. Aye.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

155. Moi

I'd rather watch Fantasy Island reruns.

[MustLoveBeagles]

156. I did

I went to a movie 🍿🎥. On the way back I heard about a minute on Serius. That was all I could manage.

[Bread and Circuses]

158. Me, too. I am barely browsing headlines....

Explanation

I come to DU for support and read how others like me are processing this coup.

I have accepted that we are now in survival mode as fascism has taken over. I have ZERO expectations that any politicians can stop this, Republican voters are content because they simply are filled with hate and anger. They don’t care about the rape, cruelty lies and the consequences to the economy or our diplomatic and security relationships.

I expect this country to become worse.

I’ll continue to organize, rally, vote, donate, and be VERY active as I have been. Find your tribe and resist!

[BHDem53]

160. Skipped.

[Skittles]

161. I cannot listen to him at ALL

he makes me sick

[stillspkg]

162. Best Option for me

I had it on with the sound muted while I listened to the alternative rally on YouTube. It was a great soundtrack for watching the liars.

[regnaD kciN]

163. I've never been into masochism...

[Sweet Rosie Red]

164. I refuse to even read anything he says

I dont have enough years left in my life to deal with 2 faced lying idiots!

[Wonder Why]

165. I got myself nearly killed on my bike just to avoid hearing him talk again.

https://democraticunderground.com/10182286668

[vapor2]

166. I did watch to see who was present from SCOTUS but watched season 4 of Heroes the rest of the time

[Rob H.]

167. Saw bits and pieces of it in commentaries on YouTube

He came across as an even bigger nut job when he was yelling into his microphone about, "Please, please, please, Mister President, we’re winning too much. We can’t take it anymore.”

I had to laugh when he pointed to the Democrats and said, "Those people are crazy!" because they weren't sufficiently obsequious for his taste. He was just so angry and you could tell he was losing his temper.

[BlueKentuckyGirl]

168. I did.

Had a college basketball game on the TV and streamed Defiance.org on the computer.

[h2ebits]

169. I deliberately switched to Netflix--can't stand listening to Trump and watching his facial expressions. . . .

Been avoiding him speaking since the beginning and just catch-up later from people who listen and report to us later.

[Martin68]

170. Of course I did. I'm not a masochist. I've read the analysis and summaries, an that's enough.

[Joinfortmill]

172. Me. Ugh.

[Progressive dog]

173. I skipped his rant

After two short clips on Morning Joe, I turned the TV off.

[oldinmtdem92]

174. missed it on principle

cant stand to watch that pos speak, burns my fucking ears ,.

[appleannie1]

175. My blood pressure can't take even 5 minutes of his bragging and lies.

Even with meds, hearing him raises it into the danger zone.

[CozyMystery]

176. I did.

Can't stand to hear his voice, and from experience, I know I won't like what he says.

[PJMcK]

177. I did!

We have guests arriving tomorrow so I cleaned the bathrooms and set up the guest room.

Time well spent.

Fuck Trump.

[JBTaurus83]

179. I can't do videos of him

If they are over 30 seconds.

[spooky3]

180. Thanks to DUers and Thriends for posting updates. Nt

[mahina]

181. Yo

But it really deeply upset my mother, and she doesn’t even need that.

I wish she wouldn’t know watched it and I wish none of our legislators attended. I can’t imagine how much it hurts their hearts. They just got used and it makes me sad for them and for the whole country because that footage will be used against us and didn’t have to happen.

I think we’re under value generally how incredibly valiant courageous and brilliant so many of our legislators are. I’m worried for them. And of course for us.

183. So busy, so busy!

America will be so busy undoing the cloud of insanity he radiates from every cell of his decaying mind and body.
Once he is gone.

Didn't try to tap into any US internet streaming to watch any of it, but I'm sure there were a few media streaming all of it.

Why didn't I watch?
I'm starting the believe that what he has is contagious!

Saw some coverage, and the rapture on some of the audience faces reminded me of brainwashed cult followers.

BBC did a bit of fact checking on gas prices, but I'm still looking for more in-depth fact checking from non-US media.

184. Did laundry. Watched some Three Stooges on YouTube

The one where Moe’s head gets stuck in a pipe and Larry and Curly have to twist him out.
Much better to watch than the Stooging going on during the State of Delusion Address.

[Sancho]

186. Missed the whole thing!

Watched Netflix.

[hibbing]

188. Former political junkie

I used to enjoy watching them regardless of who was president. I certainly yelled at the tv during the lies of Reagan, Bush and Bush. I lasted about 3 minutes last night. The asshole ruins everything as we all know.

[PatrickforB]

189. My wife and I watched it. We ended up yelling at the TV a lot. But Maddow did a good recap with the MS Now crew.

We also thought Abigail Spanberger's rebuttal speech was very well done. She is really good, and an effective communicator. Unlike fucking Trump. I mean, he just stood there and LIED. The whole time. He just stood there and lied.

[indigoth]

190. Skipped

Already knew everything he’d say would be a lie.

[love_katz]

191. Me.

I watched the Alternative SOTU held by the Democrats in front of the Capitol.
I mainly wanted to boost their watched ratings, and reduce watched ratings for the official shit show inside the Capitol.
FTDJT. 8647.

[YoshidaYui]

192. I watched the ENTIRE THING AND I SCREAMED And THREW THINGS at my TV

That smug son of a bitch deserves everything that is coming to him including life in PRISON

[waterwatcher123]

193. One more nice thing about Hawaii - 5 hours behind EST.

[debsy]

194. We did

My husband started watching a clip on his phone and I started yelling at the orange 🍊 fucker so he stopped the video before I scared our feline babies.

[Faux pas]

195. I did

and am proud I did. It's shitty enough that we have hear about him all day every fricking day.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

196. Yes- I don't know who's more infuriating, Trump or the sycophants cheering.

[iemanja]

197. I did

I never watch him. I see no reason to submit myself to watching a child rapist lie for two hours.

[Timewas]

198. Actually

I have never listened to any "state of the union" address by anyone... I can find out all I need to know afterwards....The las major speech I listened to was Obamas keynote address to the 2004 Dem. convention in Chicago and I told my wife afterwards the there was the man that would be our first black president..

[zok21]

199. Meeeeee!

I couldn't stomach it, so I watched a James Bond movie instead.

[BunnyMcGee]

200. I didn't want my temper rising

I'd rather read the text with remarks, than listen to that POS

[evemac]

201. I did not watch. Instead,

I sharpened some kitchen knives....

[IGoToDU]

202. I had something meaningful to do.

Long conversation with a very dear friend. We’re both very busy people and don’t get to have a relaxed chat that often.

[Blue Owl]

203. I won't give that hulking piece of shit pedophile one second of my attention

Fuck him and I hope he eats shit and dies.

[SirReal69]

204. Me!!

[Dem4life1970]

205. Me! Me! Count me in please!

[AllyCat]

206. 🙋‍♀️

Decided to try video gaming with the younger set in the house. We had a great time!

[summer_in_TX]

207. I intended to skip it in favor of The People's State of the Union. But our guest and my husband voted to watch it.

HShe's in the Norwegian Health Ministry and her country has to deal with the U.S.

I had realistically low expectations I thought. But it was even worse than that. Setting Dems up to be crazy and the villains. Very hard to listen to.

Sickening. There's exactly one thing he may actually be a genius at: marketing. He wove a myth that reminded me of the World Wrestling Federation. Or maybe The Hunger Games.



I've concluded that as unpleasant as that was, it's good to know how bad it is.

[SimplyHadEnough]

208. Me

I watched "State of the Swamp".

[Old Crank]

209. Wasn't getting up at 3 AM

To listen to a fire hose of sleaze for 2 hours.

[Silver Gaia]

210. 🖐🖐🖐 Count 3 here!

We didn't even watch Rachel and Nicole and Jen's "highlights" afterward.

[Rhiannon12866]

211. I sure did, I knew I couldn't take it, though I posted the video for those few who might be interested

[IzzaNuDay]

212. I slept for the entire time!

We were listening to jazz. Made for a relaxing evening!

[pansypoo53219]

213. i turned off the teevee to be sure i didn't hear a peep.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

214. Me. There was no point

[OldBaldy1701E]

216. That orange gibbon gave a speech? (n/t)

[MarcoZandrini]

217. I had more....

….important things to do like watching paint dry.

[Jacson6]

218. I took a nap right before the SOTU for an hour. I woke up to turn on the TV and he was still ranting & raving.

SIGH!
