who served our nation reminds us of why we salute or flag. why we put our hands on our hearts for the pledge of allegiance and why we proudly stand nor national anthem. today i m extending an open hand to work with members of both parties, democrats and republicans, to protect our citizens of every background, color, religion and creed. sean: with reaction fox news national security strategy, dr. sebastian gorka and we brings up in god we trust, we stand for our flag. he also talks about this is a new american moment. this is your time. he talks about the era of economic surrender being over.
all right. reporter: there you go. gronk s going to play on sunday. we had a big trade in the nfl. the chiefs trading quarterbacks alex smith to the redskins for a third-round draft pick. that means that the kurt cousins era is over. he s a free agent, will go on to find another team. big move by the redskins replacing him with smith. perhaps he s a denver bronco. i wouldn t mind seeing him in the jersey. thank you. the president says this is a new american moment. he stood by his agenda, what s in store for year two? go. yes! go. yes! nice play. still buffering. mine too. what happened? hey, joy, you should let your new pals know that according to a leading independent study, the most awarded network is now best in streaming. i think you just did.
the people dreamed this country, the people built this country. and it s the people who are making america great again. new american moment the president says. the president mixing a devicive agenda that calls for unity in the state of the union. he touted his accomplishments and warned the country about threats foreign and domestic. it s 30 past the hour, the morning after the state of the union. the president walked a fine line in the first state of the union speech last night. he held fast to the tough talking populism that he embodied in year one and made an effort to reach across the aisle. the third longest state of the union ever. he touted the economy and defended his america first approach and took a jab at nfl players for not standing during the national anthem. he pushed for a bipartisan deal that includes a border wall
important events. let s set the scene. the president obviously says the state of economy is strong. it is. he touted a lot of his accomplishments. it was a long speech. the third longest state of the union. let s listen to a bit of it. over the last year the world has seen what we always knew that no people on earth are so fearless or daring or determined as americans. if there is a mountain, we climb it, if there is a frontier, we cross it. if there s a challenge, we tame it. if there s an opportunity, we seize it. so let s begin tonight by recognizing that the state of our union is strong. all right. he called it a new american moment. there was positive reaction. 48% very positive reaction to the president s speech. 22% somewhat positive.
night in a vacuum. having known nothing previously about donald trump, it had a lot of conservative notes, he touched on the base, hit immigration hard, which he knows his voters are worried about. but we can t take it in a vacuum. it s totally divorced from the presidency he s had over the last year. when he talks about a message of unity, there s been no unity in this country for the last year and that s been driven by him. so again this is rhetoric. he gave a good speech off a teleprompter. let s see what he does today and tomorrow and let s remember what he s done over the last couple of years. let s hear him talk about unity and what he calls a new american moment. i call upon all of us to set aside our differences, to seek out common ground and to summon the unity we need to deliver for the people, this is really a key. these are the people we were elected to serve.
