As shameful as the behavior of the Democratic members was as they reacted in unison at the president’s very fine report –they cannot be blamed.

They had been threatened by their “powers that be” to protest in such an inappropriate way, or be subjected to being ostracized by their organization’s leadership. They knew that it had become the party’s protocol as they had experienced the treatment of others who had spoken up concerning President Biden’s mental deterioration.

They had been told that not one word should be shared or discussed and that they should confront members who did not follow the party’s direction.

Why that has become the norm will be be covered in the next blog.
