Conservatives exploded in praise of social media after Trump's speech to Congress

Reactions from social media conservatives came into the air after President Donald Trump spoke for about two hours in his speech at a joint Congress session on Tuesday night.

After an hour and 39 minutes of Trump's speech, conservatives took him to social media to praise the president and criticised the democratic reaction, including the removal of Democrats from the room to suspend Trump's speech.

“Peak Trump,” former Trump's senior campaign adviser Tim Martau posted on X. “That was it.”

“Those who feel they can then run through the walls for America,” a senior Trump administration adviser at US global media agency Kari Lake was featured on X.

“But don't miss something important. I didn't look back on this. It was a pleasure. What the president did tonight was something he promised from day one: America is the first to come.

“We've got about 90 standing ovations tonight,” GOP MP Nancy Mace posted on X. “The greatest president in American history.”

“This is a great speech!” Conservative commentator Mark Levin posted on X.

“After four years of weakness, strength returns to the White House, and President Trump is already keeping the promise of a country that has been safe and prosperous for Americans,” GOP Rep. Derek Schmidt said in a statement after Trump's speech.

Many Republicans praised the speech, and at the same time pointed to Democrats who refused to stand at various points, including seemingly nonpartisan moments, including a 13-year-old cancer survivor named DJ Daniel, who dreamed of becoming a police officer.

“@RealdonaldTrump's touching and emotional speech!!” GOP Sen. Bernie Moreno posted to X.

“The Democrats refused to stand up for a little boy fighting cancer,” conservative influencer account libsoftiktok posted on X. “Really sick people.”

“I wonder why most people who watch that speech lost what they were supposed to oppose, and why Democrats were so gross and uncomfortable,” National Review's rich Laurie posted on X.

The speech was panned by many Democrats, including members of Congress who jeered Trump all night, with several Democrats leaving before it could take place.

“In just 30 minutes he vented ignorance about everything from diversity, immigration, trans kids to cutting eggs and the costs of eggs. I had heard enough, so I left. Sen. Lamonica Mciver said in the release.
