My wife doesn’t follow politics. Doesn’t care for it much. Doesn’t watch the news, doesn’t watch his rallies.
But, last year she watched the SOTU. She told me she was so very impressed with his speaking skills and his ability to get the message across. I was a bit stunned but it was a good sign.
It is a spectacle. Like some Medieval royal pageantry, complete with someone unrolling a scroll and trumpets blaring.
Of that 99%, probably half don't know there is such a thing as a SOTU address. Of the remaining 49.5 %, probably half are too stoned to care. Of the last 49.5 % half are so filled with Trump hate that they'd throw away their TV, tablet, phone, or whatever rather than watch the object of their hate. The remaining 24.7% will be at work on second shift.
Of the 1% who will miss it, the majority are fake news employees who only cared so they could twist the Presidents words to advance their Communist agenda. It really won't effect them anyway, as they will just make up whatever fits.
