President Trump delivered his first State of the Union address last night of his second term and it will go down as the longest in history. For nearly two hours, trump defended his first year back in office, blasted Democrats, and bragged about his self-described wins. Noticeably absent from the address were dozens of Democratic lawmakers. For those who did attend, they sat mostly stone-faced throughout the one-hour 48-minute speech. So what were the highlights and low-lights of the address… and how did Virginia governor Abigail Spanberger do on the democratic response? We are drilling down on the State of the Union and the reaction with our panel of experts.
Guests:
Glenn Ivey – Maryland U.S. Congressman
Ambrose Lane -– President of Million Man Vote
Melanie Campbell – President and CEO of the National Coalition on Black Civic Participation
Cliff Albright – Co-Executive Director of Black Voters Matter
