Democrats are getting slammed for not standing to celebrate Donald Trump’s honorary guests during his address to Congress, including a 13-year-old cancer survivor. The president’s sprawling remarks on Capitol Hill Tuesday evening included mention of several heart-warming and heart-breaking stories. As the family members of the victims were honored, and nearly all of the room stood and clapped out of respect, most if not all Democrats remained seated. Trump then told the story of DJ Daniels, a 13-year-old child whose lifelong dream was to become a law enforcement officer, though that dream was derailed by a devastating brain cancer diagnosis in 2018. He was seated in the president’s guest suite accompanied by his father, who held up his son with a beaming smile.
