He’s worse now.

One of the reasons Trump is there now is because of Democrats’ “comity and decorum.”

It’s academic anyway because, with some individual exceptions, Democrats wouldn’t have the guts to do it.

I agree on both counts, but I would again remind everyone that so far, opinion polls have been very clear in showing that Democratic voters support comity, decorum and bipartisanship. Maybe that's changing, but we'll have to see that.

What I would want to see is one or more Dems call out "You Lie!" after some of Tr*mp's lies and exaggerations.

I don't expect this to happen, but we are not living in normal times. Pointing out Donald's lies would be part of the story of the speech, and any opportunity to get opposition out in the public's awareness would be a good thing.

That would be good. When that was blurted out to Obama, it was a lie. In this case, it would be true.
