Tommy Tuberville Says 'Housewife' Katie Britt Gave A Good State Of The Union Speech
Sen. Tommy Tuberville tried to praise fellow Alabama Republican Sen. Katie Britt for her response to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union on Thursday, but landed himself in hot water in the process.
Asked if he had concerns with the setting of Britt’s speech ― she delivered it in her home kitchen in Alabama, which some on the left and right found in poor taste ― Tuberville said he didn’t, because “she was picked as a housewife, not just a senator.”
He added: “Somebody who sees it from a different perspective, you know ― education, family, all those things. ... I mean, she did what she was asked to do. I thought she did a good job. And it’s hard when you’ve never done anything like that.”
Tuberville said he disagreed with critics of Britt’s delivery, panned by pundits on both sides of the aisle as being overly dramatic, and told HuffPost she did a good job.
“I thought the delivery was good. People were going to make fun of anybody. Some people like it, some people don’t,” Tuberville said.
