You’ve just imagined how MSNBC host Joy Reid felt after President Trump’s State of the Union speech last night.
“Church … family … police … military … the national anthem … Trump trying to call on all the tropes of 1950s-era nationalism. The goal of this speech appears to be to force the normalization of Trump on the terms of the bygone era his supporters are nostalgic for,” tweeted Reid.
Yes, you read that right. Reid is literally upset that Trump used the words church, family, police, military and the national anthem during his address to lawmakers.
It was perhaps the most bizarre reaction of the night, and there was no shortage of competition.
Twitter users took Reid to task for her apparent unease with every day words and ‘American as apple pie’ concepts.
“No, Joy, the Left is so out of touch you don’t even recognize normal when you see it,” responded one.
