Special Guests for President Trump’s 3rd State of the Union Address
February 4, 2020
Below are the special guests who will join President Donald J. Trump and First Lady Melania Trump tonight for the President’s third State of the Union.
  • From brave military families to hardworking local leaders, this year’s guests come from many walks of life. Each one represents the very best of America and people the world over.

    Meet the special guests for President Trump’s State of the Union:

    Stephanie and Janiyah Davis from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: Janiyah is a 4th grade student from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She loves art and math, but for too long she has been assigned to low-performing schools. Her mom, Stephanie, is a hardworking single mother who tried to apply for a tax credit scholarship. But due to Pennsylvania’s governor recently vetoing school choice legislation, Janiyah remained among the estimated 50,000 students on a waitlist.

    Kelli and Gage Hake from Stillwater, Oklahoma: Kelli Hake was at home with her 1-year-old son, Gage, when she learned that her husband, Army Staff Sergeant Christopher Hake, had been killed while serving his second tour of duty in Iraq. While on patrol, Staff Sergeant Hake’s fighting vehicle was hit by a roadside bomb supplied by Iranian terrorist leader Qasem Soleimani. Kelli and Gage directly suffered from Soleimani’s campaign to kill and maim U.S. service members. Last month, President Trump ordered the killing of Soleimani while he was once again trying to initiate attacks on American service members.

    Jody Jones from Farmersville, California: On December 17, 2018, Jody’s brother, Rocky Jones, was shot and killed by an illegal immigrant in Tulare County, California. The criminal alien who committed this brutal murder had previously been arrested for violent crimes and had twice been deported. The criminal alien was arrested in December 2018 for the sixth time, but because of California’s sanctuary state policy, he was released from jail. A few days later, he went on a 24-hour “reign of terror,” injuring several people, robbing a gas station, leading law enforcement on a high-speed chase, and killing 51-year old Rocky, who was known as a kind and gentle soul. Rocky leaves behind a precious daughter and 4 brothers.



    F20200203AH-0135-820x656.jpg


    Paul Morrow from Montgomery, Alabama: Paul is a United States Army veteran. After leaving the military, Morrow started a successful contracting business and today is building a new concrete plant in an Opportunity Zone in Montgomery, Alabama. This new plant will help support several brand new F-35 jets that are stationed in the region.



    F20200203AH-0212-820x656.jpg


    Deputy Chief Raul Ortiz from Del Rio, Texas: Deputy Chief Ortiz has helped protect America’s homeland for nearly three decades. Prior to joining U.S. Border Patrol in 1991, Ortiz served in the United States Army. In 2019, he became Chief Patrol Agent of the Del Rio Sector, which made him responsible for all Border Patrol operations in 41 Texas counties—including 210 miles of border between the United States and Mexico. Recently, Ortiz was promoted to Deputy Chief of U.S. Border Patrol, the second in command for more than 20,000 agents and professional staff. His awards include the Superior Civilian Service Medal, among the Department of Defense’s highest civilian honors.



    F20200203AH-0222-820x656.jpg


    Tony Rankins from Cincinnati, Ohio: After serving in the United States Army in Afghanistan, Tony Rankins suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and became addicted to drugs. He lost his job and his family, served several prison sentences, and ended up living out of his car. A company called “R Investments” helped train Tony in carpentry, painting, brick work, and other construction trades. Today, he works in an Opportunity Zone in Cincinnati, Ohio, and his new job has helped him overcome drug addiction and reunite with his family.



    F20200203AH-0201-820x656.jpg


    Robin and Ellie Schneider from Kansas City, Missouri: Ellie was born at just 21 weeks and six days. She is one of the youngest babies to survive in the United States. With the help of an incredible medical team—and the prayers of her parents and their community—Ellie kept beating the odds, exceeding milestones, and fighting for life. Today, Ellie is a happy, healthy 2-year-old girl who brings endless joy to her mother, Robin, and her entire family.



    Ivan Simonovis from Caracas, Venezuela: Ivan was the Chief of Police in Venezuela’s capital city and esteemed as the nation’s top cop. He was imprisoned in 2004 for protecting protesters and was held in captivity for nearly 15 years by the Chavez and Maduro regimes. He escaped from Venezuela in 2019 and was brought to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where immigration agents welcomed him to the United States.

I'll be watching Dame and get the best bits afterwards. I had pol-speak, I hate enforced clapping at the end of sentences and if something earthshattering comes out I'll see it on social media afterwards. Either way, if Dame can get 68 tonight he'll set the record for most points over 6 games. ;)
 
All these flavors and salt is the one some of y’all choose lol

Trump SOTU2020, then second half of the Blazers, Go Trump, Go Blazers!
 
Dems are showing what obstructive naysayers and anti-Americans they are by their childish expressions.

It's like being at the Olympics medal ceremonies and watching the only country to win no medals.
 
LOL @ DemGalsInWhite, to designate the color of the lies they tell you every day.
 
I haven't watched a state of the union address since Bill Clinton was president, maybe even longer. I have never really cared for them.

Nowadays I know that no matter whether it be Trump, Obama, a republican, or a democrat, in the white house. I can't trust anything they ever say. Both parties sold America out after Jimmy Carter.
 
What were the the KK... I mean the ladies in White chanting there?
 
Nancy looks so ridiculous pretending to read and shuffle papers while her party is being thoroughly punked on National TV.
 
Wow, 21 weeks? That’s one hell of a story. Little girl looks healthy (and very tired lol)
 
I hear the world's shortest billionaire is hoping that Bridgette Powers will run as his VP candidate, if POTUS Trump is assassinated first to give Little Mikey the "election". :cheers:
 
Good god Nancy... you feckless woman

Wow.

Petulant Pelosi just tore up a copy of the POTUS's speech behind his back as he received his 80th standing ovation after 139 pauses for applause.

Behavior of a third-grader who didn't get her way. In front of the nation, her employers.
 
That was the most Fucking pathetic SOTU speech I’ve seen. Embarrassing how these old white guys all kiss his ass. No pride. Just awful. Limbaugh. Haha. What a clown show.
 
Rah Rah! Gooooooo Team!

So I watched some of the speech up until a 100 year old Tuskegee airmen was part of it. Then I went and finished The Lighthouse and come back and see Nancy Pelosi rip up Trump's speech at the end.

They reallllllly don't want Bernie to win do they?

You piece of shit "liberals" eat this shit up don't you?
 
Looking forward to the fact checking report. Caught at least one error about ISIS.

This was a campaign speech, with specific targets, disguised as a SOTU speech.

Trump targeted black voters. I have no idea if he gained any votes with this strategy.

I do believe he gained ground on two topics.

Trump is declaring war on socialist agendas. This will get him more of the undecided voters, like myself. I don't like Trump. But I will vote for Trump over Bernie or Warren 10x over.

He also made good points and gained votes with his strong stance against sanctuary cities and states.

Trump targeted dumb people. Smart move. There are a lot of them. He keeps bringing them in, he’s in good shape. Warren et al are trying to appeal to the smarter, educated group. Massive amount of America fits Trumps target audience.

Do you honestly not see how smug and holier than thou this post is?

This kind of thought process is exactly why democrats are losing their grip on a lot of voters.

Keep calling Trump supporters and undecided voters dumb and uneducated though, or you know, be a regular person and get out of you echo chamber and actually interact with the people you think are so dumb. You’ll be surprised, they’re no different than you in their day to day lives.

I’ll say I’m not innocent to partisan bashing but that’s mostly in jest. I actually respect your(and all) opinions, I can disagree but that doesn’t make any or either of us dumb and uneducated. Just, different backgrounds.
