Leavitt Blasts Dems’ Heckling of Trump Speech: ‘They Couldn’t Even Clap for a Cancer Survivor’

D.C. (Dist. of Criminals), March 5, 2025 — White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt strongly condemned the Democratic Party’s behavior during President Donald Trump’s address to Congress on Tuesday night, calling it “the most shameful moment in the history of presidential addresses.” She criticized members of the opposition for heckling, walking out, and refusing to support basic American values—while instead cheering for Ukraine.

Leavitt pointed to early polling from CNN and CBS/YouGov showing Trump’s speech was overwhelmingly well-received by the American people, despite Democrats’ chaotic disruptions and staged protests.

“The behavior of Democrats last night was completely disgraceful. They showed just how out of touch they are with everyday Americans. It was supposed to be a unifying moment for our country, but instead, they screamed at the President, walked out, and disrespected the American people,” Leavitt stated.

She singled out several moments where Democrats refused to stand or applaud, including:

-A young girl who survived a violent attack on the volleyball court
-A 13-year-old cancer survivor honored as an honorary Secret Service agent
-President Trump’s proposal to eliminate taxes on tips and Social Security

-Two grieving mothers whose daughters were murdered by illegal aliens
“One of the only things that could get Democrats off their feet last night was cheering for Ukraine—not for America,” Leavitt continued. “It was a clarifying moment. They exposed themselves as the party of insanity and hate—the party that puts America last.”

Dems Heckle, Disrupt, and Walk Out

Trump’s speech, which began with “America is back” and detailed his administration’s rapid progress, was repeatedly interrupted by Democratic lawmakers shouting over him and waving protest paddles with slogans like “False” and “Musk Steals.”

Rep. Al Green (D-TX) was removed by the House Sergeant-at-Arms after shouting at Trump and refusing to sit down.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) held up a whiteboard with messages including “That’s a LIE!”
A group of Democratic women dressed in pink to symbolize “protest” and later walked out before the speech ended.

House Speaker Mike Johnson had to restore order multiple times as Democrats jeered and disrupted the president’s remarks.

MSDNC and Media Bias

Leavitt also called out MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace and Rachel Maddow for twisting Trump’s tribute to a 13-year-old cancer survivor into an attack on January 6.

“It’s pathetic. Democrats and their allies in the legacy media would rather let their hatred for President Trump override their love for this country,” Leavitt said.

Despite Democrats’ staged resistance, CNN’s own poll showed 69% of viewers had a positive reaction to Trump’s speech.

“Democrats have let their Trump Derangement Syndrome stop them from celebrating America. And we will not let them forget that,” Leavitt concluded.
