I don’t doubt Katie Britt is lovely and sincere, but she wasn’t the person to give a rebuttal. Democrats are supposed to be the guardians of DEI, not the Republicans. Vivek would have been great.
Having Sen. Katie Britt respond is like having Reese Witherspoon yell at you.
It was a nod to #DEI and female stereotyping. I hope similar missed opportunity will not occur with the vice-presidential pick. https://t.co/PadQPAHBi0

Yashar Ali makes a good point in this clip—we haven’t seen anything like it. It was quite unique. She worked in the hardware store, cleaned bathrooms, and so on. In this clip, she runs through a gamut of emotions in 32 seconds.
I’ve watched thousands of hours of political videos in the past 20 years and I have never seen anything like Senator Katie Britt’s rebuttal to the State of the Union. pic.twitter.com/aMN5Q7hJn8

I believe her heart was in the right place, but she did appear to present herself like that lady on those animal rescue commercials.
I thought the same thing… it was weak and whiny.. whose idea was that?
I think she did OK. She was tough on some points. She is no RINO, she said some things that Mitch would never have allowed. She used a soft delivery, which attracts some voters.
Just because lots of conservative voices complain about her, why is that cause to join into the bandwagon?
Biden has been giving the same speech for years…

Was this Ronna’s farewell message?
It seems like the Republican leaders to this point can only push one button: self-destruct!
Were they looking for a house-wife vote?
How does angry house-wife answering angry president accomplish much.
Why not talk about what Republicans will do right and sow the contrast?
Woman can mess everything up.
Are you suggesting Uncle Joe is a woman?
I’m a woman and when it comes to women in power, many are out of their league.
Richard Baris made an interesting observation. Everyone who has given the Republican response has been relegated to obscurity.
I think the observations should be about the content of her speech. We get too much play by play gossip nowadays, instead of analysis. Most officials are relegated to obscurity.
