Watch: Joe Biden’s State of the Union address

Показать описание
Joe Biden will tout his bipartisan legislative record and hope to build off positive economic signs as he delivers his State of the Union address before a newly divided Congress on Tuesday night.

The US president hopes to make the case to Americans that their lives have been improved over his first two years in the prime time address that may mark the unofficial start of his 2024 presidential campaign.

Rather than laying out major new policy proposals, Mr Biden was expected to devote much of his speech to celebrating his biggest legislative victories to date - from improving the nation’s infrastructure, tackling drug prices, combating climate change, tightening gun laws and protecting same-sex marriage.

But the lead up to the US president's speech has been overshadowed by fresh tensions with Beijing, after a Chinese surveillance balloon floated over the US last week.

The speech comes as the president is honing his pitch to voters ahead of his expected re-election announcement in the coming weeks, despite voter frustrations about the direction of the nation.

White House aides said Mr Biden hoped to confront pessimism in the country - with Americans still remaining gloomy about the economy, despite some signs inflation is easing.

Why is everyone acting like this is a social party? So weird. Why are some ladies in party dresses? The bright yellow dress looks ridiculous. All the fake laughing is creepy. They clap and hoot at everything it’s annoying. What is the point of this but pats on the back while we struggle in reality

Gas is down 1.50? Gas went up after he was in office. Was the lowest in ten years when trump was in office.

I have more of a problem with the excessive applause than the occasional heckling.

Wish he thought of defending US citizens as much as he does Ukraine and other countries. Close the borders and defend our skies Joe!

32:09 Inflation has gone done in the last 6 months while take home pay goes up my a$$, my wife and I spend more every month on the same stuff coming in to our home. I don't know where these politicians get their info, but they need to look at all states. All cities.

This speech would been tons shorter without all the eggplant-riding. Man couldve said, "Wu-Tang aint nothing to mess with" and they wouldve applauded

I'm neither pro democrat or pro republican, but I know one thing for sure I definitely wouldn't get in a vehicle if Joe Biden was driving. That man is on the lord's doorstep, needs to be with his family not shouldering a leadership role.

Y'all do realize a deficit is overspending? We don't want to cut the deficit we want to eliminate the deficit!
