Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders will give the Republican Party’s official rebuttal to Democrat President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address tonight.
According to multiple reports, Sanders will highlight the 40-year age difference between her and President Biden and blast the administration for prioritizing “woke fantasies.”
She will “contrast the GOP’s optimistic vision for the future against the failures of President Biden and the Democrats,” excerpts of Sanders’ speech show.
Sanders is the youngest governor in America and marks a change toward a new group of leaders for this nation as we turn the page on the likes of Nancy Pelosi.
Former Trump official Higan Gidley said, “She’s going to draw some stark contrasts between the ideology, the desires of the radical left versus the rest of the American people.”
Juanita Broaddrick said: “My Governor, Sarah Sanders, will be giving the response to Biden’s gibberish tonight.
“That I WILL be watching.
“Love my Governor.”

According to The Hill, “Sanders is set to emphasize in her speech that 80-year-old Biden is double her age, a spokesperson for the governor told The Hill on Tuesday ahead of the high-profile remarks.
“As the nation’s oldest president and the first octogenarian to hold the Oval Office, the president’s age has been a major point of contention amid speculation that Biden will launch a reelection bid for another four years in the White House.
“If he runs and wins, Biden would be 86 by the end of his second term.”

In a statement ahead of the speech, Sanders said:
“I am grateful for this opportunity to address the nation and contrast the GOP’s optimistic vision for the future against the failures of President Biden and the Democrats.
“We are ready to begin a new chapter in the story of America – to be written by a new generation of leaders ready to defend our freedom against the radical left and expand access to quality education, jobs, and opportunity for all.”
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said: “Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders is the youngest Governor in the nation and a powerful advocate for the popular, commonsense conservative principles that will put our country back on a better course.”
Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said:
“The youngest governor in America, Sarah is fighting on behalf of parents, small businesses, and ordinary taxpayers.
“She is bringing new ideas for a changing future, while also applying the wisdom of the past.
“Everyone, including President Biden, should listen carefully.”
