House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries just torched President Trump’s State of the Union address on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, calling it riddled with dirty rotten lies. This isn’t some offhand jab—it’s the Democratic playbook on steroids, straight from the guy leading the charge in the House. Jeffries, ever the partisan warrior from New York, didn’t specify which lies burned him most, but you can bet your last mag the 2A shoutouts in Trump’s speech were high on his hit list. Trump highlighted record-low violent crime rates, touted border security wins that keep cartel guns out of American hands, and reaffirmed his unbreakable commitment to the Second Amendment—facts that make blue-city gun-grabbers sweat.

Let’s dissect this with some cold, hard context: Trump’s SOTU wasn’t fabricating stats; it leaned on FBI data showing violent crime plunging nationwide, including murders down 15% from 2023 peaks, per preliminary reports. Jeffries’ meltdown ignores how sanctuary policies in Dem strongholds like his own backyard fuel the very crime waves they decry, while Trump’s pro-2A stance aligns with rising concealed carry permits (over 27 million nationwide now, per the Crime Prevention Research Center). Calling truth dirty rotten lies is projection—remember when Jeffries’ party pushed assault weapon bans amid falling gun crime? It’s gaslighting 101, designed to delegitimize any defense of self-reliance.

For the 2A community, this is red meat: Jeffries’ rant signals Dems are terrified of Trump’s momentum heading into midterms and beyond. With SCOTUS’s Bruen decision still rippling through courts, gutting may-issue schemes, and public support for gun rights hitting 56% in recent Gallup polls, attacks like this only galvanize us. It underscores the stakes—ignore the noise, arm up legally, and vote like your rights depend on it, because they do. Trump’s not backing down, and neither should we.
