About Trump’s Address to Congress

Contrary to what President Trump claimed in his address to Congress, America is not back. In fact, it's farther from itself than it's ever been because of him: alliances with adversaries, attacks on allies, broken promises, and endless lies and distortions. Instead of presenting a sober speech on issues concerning the nation, Trump ran in full campaign mode, spewing false claims about his predecessor and even calling a member of Congress a derogatory nickname.

The message of Democratic Rep. Melanie Stansbury of New Mexico summed things up accurately when she held a sign reading, “This is not normal.”
