11 Mar 2025 Horace Cooper: After Joint Address, We May Be Heading Toward a One-Party System

The reaction by leftist Members of Congress to President Trump’s recent Joint Address bodes poorly for the future of their party, Project 21 Chairman Horace Cooper said on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity.”

Horace told host Sean Hannity and fellow panelist Clay Travis:

We saw the president give perhaps the best public address that he has ever done.

On the other hand, the so-called opposition acted like a bunch of babies.

You know, if a clown jumps into a barrel, throws himself in Niagara Falls and we watch it, we kinda laugh and we think it’s amazing that anyone would try such a stupid stunt.

When a political party does it, we really wonder what is going on.

I worked on Capitol Hill. We had multiple joint addresses to Congress, and never did one Member of Congress act up the way that this particular member did. And it’s really striking to me that ten members of his party agreed that he deserved rebuke, because he did deserve rebuke.

But it wasn’t ten members that could agree that we shouldn’t have boys in the girls locker room. This party needs to get it right. The radicals, the progressives are taking the party over the falls, and I can’t imagine how devastating this is going to be in the long run…

The party that we watched and are watching is in a slow total fall and collapse. I am not a Democrat. I have never been a Democrat. But I will say competition is great in every arena. The oldest political party in the world is the Democrats, and the way that they’re going, it looks like they’re headed toward the Whigs.

You can’t stand up and honor parents who have lost their child to killer immigrants? You can’t acknowledge the achievement and greatness of surviving brain cancer? Whatever your advisors are telling you, you need to fire them.

And if that doesn’t happen, what we end up with is one political party that’s gonna just handle commonsense problems and solutions. And maybe that’s the answer, but we could always benefit from competition. The party that we’ve been witnessing is not a party capable of providing that competition.
