Texas Democrat says President Trump’s State of the Union changed her vote

By Joni Werner | Commentary, USA TODAY I believe Trump has only the best interests of the U.S. at the core of all his decisions. I do believe the changes he has made are working.

Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice During the State of the Union, Donald Trump issued a clear and direct statement. “If you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your support: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal immigrants.” Every Republican in the chamber stood. Not one Democrat did. https://twitter.com/TheRMVoice/status/2026479858017276192 That moment was not theater. It was a stress test.

It is the foundational obligation of any legitimate government. The Constitution exists to secure the bless...
