Wish he got rid of the crutches, "look" and "folks." Style wise it's terribly distracting and detracts from content.
Would like to see more detail of make stuff in the US concept
How, exactly, is that going to happen.
The attack on pharmaceutical companies is tired. Everyone does it because of course people want lower prescription costs. But how, exactly, do we do that?
He's right on allowing Medicare negotiating on prescriptions. And everybody knows it.
The child care issue is obvious. But again what are the specifics? How will we pay for that? Implement it?
Overall, as SOTUs go, a solid B. Reaction was good and GOP was responsible and I think good for show of unity at an important time so I give them kudos for that.
Hope Putin saw that and realized his actions have, at least for a time, caused political leadership to rally on one point, which is that we won't sit by on this.
So far.... will let you know if I have other reactions.
