Katie Britt Panned for ‘Cringe' State of the Union Response
2024-03-09
[Breitbart] Republican Alabama Sen. Katie Britt was roasted for what some described as her "cringe" State of the Union response, as she provided the Republican rebuttal to President Joe Biden’s speech.

In a roughly 17-minute speech from her kitchen, Britt briefly spoke about the American dream and hit a few major Republican talking points, such as the immigration crisis and rising costs affecting American families across the nation. However, while she appeared to address the right topics on paper, her speaking style and overall delivery completely failed to resonate, prompting critiques all across the board, as many mocked her breathy speech, full of pauses, hushed tones, and abrupt emotional switches from near-tears to happy-go-lucky:

#4  I didn't last a minute... but I thought I heard Bobby Jindal say, "See, I wasn't so bad!"

#3  At times it looked and felt like the "Opposite World" conservative version of the Lizzie Warren video trying to look folksy opening a beer.

Contrived theatrics and visuals over just professionally offering a normal American answer to the lunatic ravings of the Vegetable-in-Chief. People know when they are being talked down to, left or right!
