Today on the Will Cain Show, a focus group made up of voters of varying backgrounds reacted to Trump’s State of the Union address.
One member, a young woman named Ajua Mason, who is a Republican, reacted to the behavior of Democrats during the speech by saying that they “gave a middle finger to the oath of office that they took.”
It’s really a perfect description of what the Democrats did. It was a disgusting display on multiple levels.

WILL CAIN, FOX NEWS HOST: Democrats, but do you think there’s anything deeper to the fact that they would not stand in that moment when they were describing the job of an American congressman?
TAMMY WOODARD, REPUBLICAN VOTER: I do. I think it’s shameful that they wouldn’t stand. I mean, what is their job but to represent us and our interests first above anything else? And to not be able to just stand for that, it’s, it’s just wrong. It doesn’t make them look good.
AJUA MASON, REPUBLICAN VOTER: The way I viewed it last night watching it is that they gave a middle finger to the oath of office that they, that they took. In fact, their new oath of office is oppose Trump on anything, on any situation. The one thing that they seem to want to come together on is to oppose Trump. Trump could find a cure for cancer and they would, they would find a reason to disagree with it.
CAIN: Yeah.
MASON: And I don’t know if that is just their strategy to get them through the midterm or whatever, but I think that if, if it’s just about opposing Trump, I don’t think that the people that elected them sent them there to do that. Number one, it is about the American people first. You got to take care of home. You got to take care of your family before you can take care of, or try to help to take care of someone else’s.
