President Donald Trump is set to deliver his third State of the Union address Tuesday night in what’s shaping up to be a particularly busy news week in the United States. The country just witnessed a mess of a Democratic caucus in Iowa Monday, and on Wednesday the Senate is scheduled to vote on the articles of impeachment brought against Trump. The president may not address these issues directly in his annual speech before Congress, but they’ve certainly been on his mind (and his Twitter feed).
Instead, expect Trump to tout his record on the economy, immigration, and national security, based on the list of guests released by the White House hours before the event. They include the deputy chief of the US Border Patrol, beneficiaries of Trump’s economic policies, and family members of a US service member who was killed in Iraq.
Trump is expected begin the State of the Union at around 9 pm ET (6 pm PT). Following the president’s speech, the Democratic response will be given by Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer in English and Texas representative Veronica Escobar in Spanish.
