The only thing they seemed to cheer for was the fact that they got a job. Didn't care that Americans got jobs, sex traffickers were arrested, or sex slaves were freed. Why? Who exactly do they represent?

When he said that he had doubled the child tax credit, that does not help billionaires, that is chump change for them if they even have kids, that is something that helps the 99% not the 1%. Why not clap? One possible conclusion is that these things don't support the narrative that he is only serving his "billionaire cronies". Another possible conclusion is that they are spoiled self centered and superficial.

I have no issue with them not applauding when he said that they had cut more govt regulations than any previous administration. That made sense. I understand when they didn't applaud his call for the wall, his talk about the investigation, or his stance on abortion. That made sense.

Yeah he said he was for a lot of things that he really isn't for that the Democrats want. The speech was designed to make Trump look reasonable and to embarrass the Democrats and make them look bad. Based on your response in Ohio's you succeeded with his base. Yippie kayo!
