Last post of the tri!
Watch or read the State of the Union which President Trump will deliver on 2/5/2019. Answer one of the following prompts:
- If you were to give the Democratic response what would you say and why?
- What were 2 proposals Trump makes in his speech? Do you think he will be able to get those initiatives accomplished in 2019? Why or why not?
- What efforts did you see in the speech to try to persuade moderates and Democrats to support his initiatives? Do you think he was persuasive to people outside of his base of supporters? Why or why not?
Your response should refer to specifics in his speech. You should use a minimum of one other source in addition to the speech.
This is due by Friday, 2/15 and will be our last post for the tri because we are a little tight thanks to the polar vortex.
I look forward to reading what you will write!
