A hundred minutes — that's how long President Trump had the floor — literally — last night.
A hundred minutes he used to lay out his agenda, his grievances and what he argued are the accomplishments of his first six weeks in office.
This all came during his "joint address" to Congress — the State of the Union that's not a State of the Union.
Since Trump returned to office in January, there's been little room left for democrats to make their case to the American people.
Democratic moderates think they have an answer for Trump 2.0. What does their playbook look like?

The Daily Signal - Victor Davis Hanson: Pentagon’s Partisan Letter Against Trump, Hegseth DEBUNKED
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Air Force General C.Q. Brown, was fired from his post last month, along with several other high ranking military officials.
Many of the Left rushed to say that President Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth were “politicizing” the Pentagon. However, “This is not the politicalization of the Pentagon. It's the depoliticalization”, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”
“ They said, ‘This is reckless, it hurts morale, and it will depress recruitment.’ Let's analyze that just for a second. Recruitment reached near-record levels after the election of Donald Trump. It's on the way up. It was depressed prior to that. Why would it be depressed? If you go through the Pentagon data, it's very hard to decipher.
“ More importantly, Leon Panetta signed this letter. He was one, also, of the 51 intelligence authorities that said, right on the eve of the election and on a few days before the 2020 debate, that Hunter [Biden's] laptop, which was in the hands of the FBI and authenticated, had all the hallmarks of a Russian information, which meant disinformation, campaign.
“ Bottom line: We don't need any more letters from so-called experts. They're always partisan. And they're to no effect.”
