Seconds After Biden Finished SOTU Speech – Rising GOP Star Blindsides Joe with Genius Move

It is custom for a president’s rival party to give a rebuttal to his State of the Union address. In the past, it has given political parties a chance to lay out their own vision for the country and refute some of the claims of the sitting president.

It also gives Americans a chance to hear from an up-and-coming leader.

This year, some Republicans considered Donald Trump for the rebuttal. The former president was flattered but refused. Instead, Republican Sen. Katie Britt, a young leader in Congress, gave the response. And critics are praising this rising GOP star.

From Fox News:
Republican Alabama Sen. Katie Britt pulled no punches as she delivered her party’s rebuttal to President Biden’s State of the Union address Thursday night, ripping him for his “despicable” job handling the border crisis, as well as his promotion of “Bidenomics” amid the rising consumer costs plaguing American families.

A rising star within the GOP, the 42-year-old Britt’s selection to deliver the rebuttal last week was met with widespread praise — even from some Democrats — as she continues to build a national profile despite never holding elected office prior to her election in the 2022 midterms.

Sen. Britt gave a voice to the millions of Americans dissatisfied and outraged at the Biden administration. Joe spent 40 minutes slandering Republicans and pushing partisan politics.

Britt made a special point to criticize Joe’s age and lifelong role in politics, calling him a “permanent politician.” She blamed Joe for the next generation lacking the same opportunities and freedoms as previous ones.

Under Biden, the job market is in tatters. Housing and costs of living far outpace the pay of even white-collar jobs. Americans are forced to compete against immigrants who work for far less.

High energy prices, inflation, and runaway government spending further burden young Americans.

Britt went on to expose Biden’s role in the migrant crisis. She pointed out that Joe didn’t just “create” the border crisis. He “invited it” by signing 94 executive actions that removed protections and encouraged millions to invade the country.

She called Biden’s border agenda “despicable.” The senator blasted Democrats like Biden, who are riding high while most Americans are “scraping by.” Sen. Britt highlighted the major gripes Americans have with this failed administration.

She tore through Democrats’ spin and the media’s stubborn refusal to hold Biden accountable. This will no doubt impress voters in the coming years, which could pave the way for Britt’s future role in the country.

Key Takeaways:

  • Republican Sen. Katie Britt issued the GOP rebuttal to Biden’s SOTU.
  • She hit Biden over his age, corruption, and policies that have hurt Americans.
