Nah!

 I already know what he’s going to say:

“He’s made a mockery of the State of the Union speech and he doesn’t deserve an audience,” said Sen. Christopher Murphy (D-CT) recently, who will be joining Democrats for the alternative event, the “People’s State of the Union,” The New York Times reported.

“He’s going to tell 40 different lies, call Democrats names; he’s going to paper over his corruption, and I don’t feel like what he’s doing dignifies having Democrats there to cloak the speech in a veneer of respectability.”

Rep. Angie Craig: "I would rather stick forks in my eyes than be here tonight to listen to Donald Trump talk about the state of the union, but this is the people's house, and I will not abandon the people'e house." pic.twitter.com/pFdh8g63P6

Lucky for me, I can just read a book. The TeeVee needs a rest, anyway.

I do not feel disenfranchised if my Rep decides she doesn't want to sit and listen to Trump's tired lies and conspiracies. Her listening to Trump does not do anything to help us deal with his affordability crisis. https://t.co/VDfnEr5tkP
