John Zogby: Political Author and Pollster on Donald Trump's State of the Union speech
Published 1 week, 4 days ago
Description
A record-breaking State of the Union speech from Donald Trump.
His 107 minute address is the longest since records began in 1964.
The US president also spoke directly to invited guests, including the US Olympic champion men's hockey team, victims of crime by illegal immigrants, and a 100-year-old World War Two veteran.
Political author and pollster John Zogby told Mike Hosking aside from the veterans, there weren’t really any other heroes sitting in the seats, which is a reminder of how degraded US politics have become.
He says that Trump made a good attempt to paint a rosy picture in his speech, but early polls indicate it hasn't persuaded anyone.
