Democrats turned the House floor into a circus after Texas Congressman Al Green faced consequences for his meltdown during President Trump’s speech. Green screamed “You have no mandate!” at the president, forcing Speaker Mike Johnson to order his removal. Republicans held him accountable days later with a historic censure vote – but Democrats responded by singing protest hymns and blocking the chamber’s proceedings.
The House voted 224-198 to formally rebuke Green for his unhinged outburst, with 10 Democrats joining Republicans to punish their colleague. Instead of accepting responsibility, Green and over a dozen far-left members stood in the well of the House belting “We Shall Overcome” – a Civil Rights-era anthem – forcing Speaker Johnson to recess the chamber. This childish display wasted taxpayer time and deepened the chaos Democrats started during Trump’s address.
President Trump rightly called Green an “embarrassment” and mocked the spectacle, suggesting the congressman “take an IQ test.” Social media erupted with conservatives slamming Green as a “clown” and “disgrace” for disrespecting the presidency. Even some Democrats admitted the stunt backfired, with one lawmaker privately calling it “outrageous” and accusing Republicans of “watering down” the meaning of censure.
Green’s impeachment obsession and Medicaid grandstanding revealed Democrats’ desperation to sabotage Trump’s agenda. While Republicans chanted “USA!” to defend the president’s pro-America message, Democrats waved “False” signs and wore “Resist” shirts like sore losers. Their refusal to acknowledge Trump’s landslide victory or historic policy wins proves they care more about theatrics than serving the people.
This meltdown shows why voters rejected Democrat control in 2024. Instead of working to secure the border or fix the economy, radical leftists prioritize heckling and virtue-signaling. President Trump’s speech focused on slashing bureaucracy and unleashing American energy – but all Democrats offered was petty disruption. Their circus act only reminds Americans why they voted for strong leadership over socialist chaos.
