Tonight, President Trump addresses the nation and, indeed, the world in the first State of the Union speech of his second term in office. We’ve been a part of planning and the crafting of these important messages in past administrations and share a few stories this morning.
Also, with the Supreme Court handing the Trump Administration a 6 - 3 decision indicating the President acted without authority from Congress when he imposed global tariffs, we were both drawn to the points in the concurring opinion offered by Justice Gorsuch.
We hope you enjoy the conversation. And, trust us, we’ll have more to say later in the week about tonight’s speech!
Note: Our conversation leads off with a reference to a post by our friend Tom Collamore yesterday who shared an advance man’s story of what can go wrong as a President steps to the podium to deliver an address to Congress and the nation. The story comes from his recently released book, “Don’t Tell the President.” To view this true and entertaining story, click below…
