SOTU: Alabama Senator Katie Britt Brings the Youth and the Fire in Her Rebuttal
2024-03-08
[Red State] Alabama Senator Katie Britt delivered the Republican rebuttal to President Joe Biden's State of the Union address. Her youth, passionate defense of motherhood and families, and her personal stories presented a stark contrast to an elderly president who has lived his entire adult life in politics and is barely able to rattle off canned lines from a teleprompter.

Britt made history as the first female senator from Alabama and the youngest Republican woman elected to the Senate. Now she has made history for her response to the State of the Union. Britt set a different tone immediately: doing the rebuttal address from her kitchen table in her own home. Britt related to the audience not as a Senator, but as a fellow American and wife and mom, which supersedes her role as Alabama's junior senator.

#10  Trump is better suited to make fun of Biden as he goes kind of like the Manning brothers make fun of quarterbacks. The GOP is most often going to pick someone that performs mediocrely. It is their specialty. Ronna is a good example.

#9  Her material was on point, but her delivery was so treacly as to annoy. Also, why in the kitchen? A lost opportunity. The MSM now has their strawman and they will beat it to death over the weekend.

#8  One site characterized Britt's speech as "Bless his heart". For those from the north, that's southron speak for "What a maroon!".

#7  Had the mannerisms of Lorenzo Smythe to me, not that it matters, Brandon was never a policy maker in his entire career. Posture, clapping, then topics was the theme.

#6  Katie Britt was a GREAT contrast to an Angry, and obviously very Disturbed, “President.” She was compassionate and caring, especially concerning Women and Women’s Issues. Her conversation on Migrant Crime was powerful and insightful. Great job Katie!

#4  Nancy Pelosi is slammed for criticizing Joe Biden calling Laken Riley murder suspect an 'illegal' as far-left congresswoman says he should have said 'undocumented'

I thought they were 'Newcomers'.

#3  Red State liked her because she's not Trump.

#2  The local TV news had about 30 seconds of her milquetoast speech, after four or five clips of a fiery, powerful Brandon. He'll have to sleep for days.
