Results: Biden's State of the Union Speech

The speech started with issues Biden is keen to discuss. Defending democracy from an authoritarian rival; defending reproductive rights, including abortion; defending Ukraine against Russia; and federal safety-net programs. He referred to inflation lowering, while the economy and employment grow. Americans are upset about inflation, and they give Biden poor marks for his economic handling. Biden receives absolutely devastating reviews from the public on the border. A record number of migrants are walking into the U.S., and most are released into the country while they file claims that can take years to adjudicate. He also announced plans Thursday to build a temporary pier to Gaza to deliver U.S. aid of food, water, medicine and makeshift shelters. In the House of Representatives, the assembled Democrats chanted: "Four more years! Four more years!" American voters get to make that call in November. On Thursday night, we heard Biden's plan for winning them back.
