Punchbowl News: “The State of the Union is typically a well-watched but sepia-toned tradition filled with half promises, overwrought policy prescriptions and lofty goals.”
“If you’re a House or Senate Republican facing the stiff political winds heading into a difficult midterm election, perhaps you wanted some details on what President Donald Trump intends to do for the next eight months. Your political survival depends on it.”
“That didn’t happen.”
“The State of the Union under Trump is far more political theater than substance. He’s the master of ceremonies and the flash is what matters. Congressional Republicans are merely along for the ride, wherever it goes.”
