THE PRESIDENT: Mr. Speaker, Mr. Vice President, Members of Congress, the First Lady of the United States, and my fellow Americans:
Less than one year has passed since I first stood at this podium, in this majestic chamber, to speak on behalf of the American people and to address their concerns, their hopes, and their dreams. That night, our new administration had already taken very swift action. A new tide of optimism was already sweeping across our land.
Each day since, we have gone forward with a clear vision and a righteous mission — to make America great again for all Americans. (Applause.)
Over the last year, we have made incredible progress and achieved extraordinary success. We have faced challenges we expected, and others we could never have imagined. We have shared in the heights of victory and the pains of hardship. We have endured floods and fires and storms. But through it all, we have seen the beauty of America’s soul, and the steel in America’s spine.
Each test has forged new American heroes to remind us who we are, and show us what we can be.

AMERICANS ARE DREAMERS TOO. Let NO MAN forget that fact.
Highlights for me:
“Americans are dreamers too.”
“In God we Trust.”
The story about the officer who adopted the baby of the pregnant heroin addict.
The North Korean defector Ji Seong-ho holding his crutches.
Read through it. Well done, speechwriters and Mr. President!
If only he would have went 6? Minutes he would have passed b.cinton for longest SOTU.
For no other reason than just to stick it to the left.
“”Well done, speechwriters and Mr. President!””
Yes, it was. Exceptionally well done!
I will avoid discussions about it with certain people. It angers me too much to hear their excuses for disliking this president and I can’t make the points I can make after a discussion has ended.
