Democrats are in resistance mode during President Donald Trump's address to a joint session of Congress. While Rep. Al Green got kicked out for disrupting the speech, other Democrats are expressing their disagreement with paddles reading "False."
Just tuned in late. Why are the Democrats holding paddles like they're at an auction?

Some also say "Musk Steals" and "Save Medicaid."
Democrats look weak and feeble right now with these ridiculous “Musk Steals” signs. Who is advising this party?

What a wining strategy 😂

Why do the Dems have auction paddles? This isn’t Sotheby’s.

Democrats have their paddles out like they’re buying slaves again.

Democrats holding up little paddles with the word “FALSE” on it… and we are supposed to believe anything they say?
— Michele Tafoya (@Michele_Tafoya) March 5, 2025
They said the open border was “FALSE.”
They said Joe Biden’t declining mental health was “FALSE.”
They told us inflation was “FALSE.”
The “Musk Steals” paddles are so absurd. The Democrats are the biggest fucking joke.

Democrats, nobody gives a shit about your silly little 'bidding paddles'. Just so you know. :) #StateOfTheUnion

Those sad little ping pong paddle signs...
— Peter Laffin (@petermlaffin) March 5, 2025
Whichever PR intern thought it was a good idea to hand out the little ping pong paddles to all the Dems should have their supervisor fired for approving such a childish idea. Perfect example of Dems doubling down on silly. pic.twitter.com/YeWwm9Tzg2

I actually love the Dem auction paddles. Selling out the American people live on camera. Who thought this was the right idea?

I'm no expert, but Dems holding up paddles while Trump is talking about helping eveyday Americans *might* be a clue to why they lost in November.

After weeks of planning, the Democrats came up with small paddle boards and pink tops.

Democrats holding up paddles that say “FALSE” when Trump says, “There are only two genders,” tells you everything you need to know about them. #Trump

The ping pong paddles can't protect you against this absolute roast.

Democrats bringing auction paddles to the #SOTU tonight has a Tim Walz level of masculinity to it.
— Jay Town (@JayTownAlabama) March 5, 2025
Any Democrat who doesn’t celebrate America flourishing at least once during this joint address to congress, should be kicked out.
— Alexandra Lains (@realalexlains) March 5, 2025
Take your stupid little paddles with you.
We should have invested in ping-pong paddle futures.
