[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump did a great job. CNN has a poll 80% approval after speech. DC libs need to weak up.[/quote]

Here's what I found on CNN:

Roughly 7 in 10 speech-watchers said they had at least a somewhat positive reaction to Trump’s speech tonight, with a smaller 44% offering a very positive response. That’s lower than the 57% of viewers who rated Trump’s initial address to Congress very positively eight years ago, or the 51% who said the same of President Joe Biden’s initial address in 2021. It also comes just below the 48% “very positive” rating Trump saw for his 2018 State of the Union.

Good marks from speech-watchers are typical for presidential addresses to Congress, which tend to attract generally friendly audiences that disproportionately hail from presidents’ own parties. In CNN’s speech reaction polls, which have been conducted most years dating back to the Clinton era, audience reactions have always been positive.

The pool of people who watched Trump speak on Tuesday was about 14 percentage points more Republican than the general public.[/quote]

Yep, speech-watchers being the key word here. I will typically watch the SOTU, even when it is a republican president. But I very intentionally did not watch one minute of it. It also seems that media and sm users are intentionally not showing clips from it. [/quote]
