the reality though, at the end of the day, things are moving without the u.s. and the time magazine cover, you know, is perhaps an overstatement but things are moving on. people are not waiting for this president to suddenly reengage, so i think that yes, he gave a good speech which is always good. there weren t any protests which they were worried about, but at the end of the day, will his policies change? and by moving on, china, india, others stepping in. regional trade agreements. saying we ll go back to tpp without the united states if we have to so the rest of the world saying this is the way we re going to do it. the president was well received. the speech was. there were little boos during the speech part. speech on teleprompter, q and a unscripted here. had the opposing party to me won, some of whom you backed, some of the people in the room, instead of being up almost 50% i
what was interesting though is trump didn t push that envelope. he pushed the legal immigration envelope and gave democrats a good opportunity to say no way. buzz what if he were just to do the wall because democrats were willing to offer that. if he had stuck to that narrow script it would have worked. that s the thing in days ahead. here s our plan, we need these immigration restrictions. now that the president s back, will he say let s negotiate. the president as hi prepares his state of the union address. next time, i want you on my bowling team.
