Delaware Congressman McBride Did Not Clap for a Boy With Cancer, Victims of Criminal Migrant Violence

WASHINGTON — During his [her] speech to a joint session of Congress, President Donald Trump honored Jocelyn Nungaray, a 12-year-old girl who was murdered in Texas, allegedly by two undocumented immigrants. Trump used the moment to criticize President Joe Biden’s immigration policies, drawing applause from many lawmakers, but not Democrats.

And not Delaware’s transvestite Congressman.

Congressman Sarah McBride (D-Del.), a biological male who self-identifies and dresses as a woman, faced criticism from conservatives and the Delaware GOP for not clapping during Trump’s remarks on immigration and other key moments, including a tribute to a young cancer patient, D.J. Daniels and Trump’s statement opposing transgender participation in women’s sports.

McBride later acknowledged being on his [her] phone during the speech, stating, “Texting my staff before Trump’s speech to prepare for his lies about Social Security. Or if you’re the Delaware GOP, time traveling 55 minutes into the speech.”

McBride joined fellow Democrats in their blanket opposition to Trump’s speech, with one key breaking moment where he [she] and other Democrats clapped for Ukraine.
