- How long will he go? Nixon had some of the shortest SOTU addresses, with one coming in at around 28 minutes. In the past, all of Biden's SOTU addresses have ranged from 1 hour to 1:13. The longest SOTU address in recent times was Donald Trump at 1:22. I expect Biden's address to be right around 30 minutes.
- Will Biden address the massive illegal immigration, or "newcomers" as he now calls them. Will he be in touch with people's fears about these illegals, or will he tell us that we have nothing to worry about.
- Usually the President starts out by saying "the state of the union is strong". Will Biden do that? Can he and then blame the border problem on Republicans? Biden's handlers know this is a HUGE problem for his candidacy. How he attempts to address it should be interesting.
- Will Biden talk about inflation - high gas and food prices? High housing prices? And, how 10,000,000 immigrants piling into our nation causes all of these prices to continue to escalate?
- Will Biden even mention Trump at all?
Did I miss anything? Sure, Biden will yap on about jobs and the Dow - I expect that will take up half his speech. Since Biden is weak on numbers, economics and even "Bidenonmics", that aught to be fun to watch.
- What about that 9-0 Supreme Court decision? Tough to talk about a January 6 insurrection when the Supreme Court gutted and filleted that crow before shoving it down the Biden Admin's throats. But, I think Biden will still go there - we'll see.
