Yes, I watched it and thought he did a very nice job and stuck to the topics with no verbal bashing.  I'm an independent, but I think the Democrats need to quit being bawl babies and stop to booing at these events.  Grow up and act like adults.

I didn't watch but you've pretty much summed up my opinion on the matter!

I agree with you about the booing, however, that applies to all politicians, not just the democrats.  Let's not forget last year Republicans yelled out "liar" several times during President Obama's state of the union.

No, I didn't watch.  Had no intentions to.  I have reading the articles/opinions of the speech.
Have a wonderful day!

I didn't watch & good thing too because they kept on doing reruns over &over online, on TV, on NPR,.... I'm glad to because he speech was no different just tone down without the swear words, hate tone, bigotry, sexual harassment, racist slurs! All He did was took credit for the economy that was already up on the rise after President Obama was leaving office. President Obama left him an office in really good standing unlike the mess Bush left Obama as he was entering the White House! All the suppose accomplishment Trump's claiming is like the kid that asked me if she could look at my math work, copies the answers & has the audacity to say, oh I did better than I though! He remains me of the spoiled rich kid who makes 10th place & his underlings cheer him like he won 1st place! He's like the king who's walking around posing in his underwear while his subjects compliments none existing fashionable outfit! On the other I'm upset at the democrats letting him get away with everything, everything! Which why they lost the election to someone like Trump! So, if they want to get rid of that big loud mouth cockroach in the white house they better toughen up!

The SOTU speech was straightforward and direct.  Of course, you put your best foot forward.  It is so important to find common ground now, to be inclusive.  We need to pull together as a nation.  Yet, you could see the discomfort at times when the camera panned the audience.  These politicians should think twice about the example they set for future generations.

I watched it and there's some  people in the audience that left me speechless.  For instance the parents that lost their children senselessly to voilents.
