This is scheduled for 5MAR2025. I know what I think of the state of the union, right now. Be hard not to upset Daniel Webster when he asks, “How stands the Union?”

It seems there is a new troubling event daily.



Art.II, Sec 3
 
I doubt Trump’s “big beautiful bill” will be passed by then, so it might be interesting.

Republicans appear to be falling in line. I think it has a good chance.

Congress will rubber stamp anything that Donald puts in front of them. He's made it perfectly clear that he expects 100% compliance, or they will feel the full wrath of his followers.
 
The people have spoken, get your ass on board.

Trump did not get a majority of the popular vote, and his unfavorable ratings are higher than his favorable, and climbing daily.

He has no mandate. You can put your ass wherever you please, but do not convince yourself that "the people" are happy about the Trump/Musk show.

The chance of Trump writing (or reading) a bill is rather remote.

Did you get your ass onboard when Biden legitimately kicked Traitor Trump’s ass in ‘20?

Of course not. You spent the entire four years posting bullshit, claiming Biden didn’t really win.

You know what you can do with the “get your ass onboard” shit talk.

I won't be watching.

Haven't watched this clown show (either party) in 20 years.

The President should simply send his address to Congress by message and the reading clerks of both Houses should read it into the record of the respective Houses.

As was done from President Jefferson until President Taft.

I never watch

Biden's highest TV ratings were 38.2m (2022), his lowest was his first in 2021 of 26.9m

Who the hell decided to have this speech at such a stupid time?
I'm not staying up for that!
They just lost a viewer!!!

If I was the prez, I'd make my speech at 7"00am local time and make the members of Confress get up early :)

Haha! 49.8% He slaughtered Harris in the electoral college. He absolutely has a mandate, and he is delivering that mandate.

I'm sure you believe that, but it is not the case. Since Biden actually did receive a majority of the popular vote, do you believe he had a mandate?

Biden electoral 306

We elect Presidents by states electoral votes. Biden eked out a victory, so no.

Electoral votes determine elections true. But people provide mandates. Biden had greater than 4% more popular votes, so he had a greater mandate, right? Or are you gonna hide behind that EC outcome?

On another note, what does this election mandate mean, when people actually see what goes on, and express their opinion. Trump's favorables are dropping like a rock.

4% popular vote and $5 gets you a cup of coffee. Mandate no mandate. It is all meaningless. Trump won. He is the President. He enacts his policies as the winner. People are actually seeing what Trump is doing and they approve. Why on earth do you think his poll numbers are high? There is your mandate.
