President Donald Trump will deliver his first State of the Union address on Tuesday, January 30, at 9 pm ET in the Capitol, marking the first year of his presidency. The speech will land just days after lawmakers ended a three-day government shutdown and as another spending bill showdown approaches.
The State of the Union will be streamed live on C-SPAN and on Twitter. It will also be aired on network and cable television across the country.
Trump will deliver the State of the Union as a historically unpopular figure, with approval ratings well below those of his predecessors at this time in their presidencies. According to a FiveThirtyEight average of polling, 38.5 percent of voters approve of the job Trump is doing as president, while 56.2 percent disapprove. At the same time in their presidencies, Barack Obama sat at 49.2 percent approval, George W. Bush at 78.6 percent, and Bill Clinton at 55.7 percent.

call for jail and persecution of his political enemies, attack the free press, and deliver a message of fear and hatred for his base, to further divisiveness in the country.
