Dem response: 'We did not hear the truth from our president'
Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger said Americans "did not hear the truth from our president" tonight while delivering the Democratic response to Trump's State of the Union address.
"Is the president working to make life more affordable for you and your family? Is the president working to keep Americans safe, both at home and abroad? Is the president working for you?" she asked, saying the answer to those three questions is no.
Spanberger said Trump "offered no real solutions to our nation's pressing challenges, so many of which he is actively making worse."
She briefly touched on the files around Jeffrey Epstein and protests in Minnesota against the Trump administration's immigration crackdown, which were not mentioned during Trump's State of the Union.
