Presidential addresses are a more personal and credible way to address the public and urge them to unite in a cause. That gesture alone makes me more likely to listen to the President's point of view or plan. Show Less

One speech isn't going to change anyone's opinion on major topics, but they can influence what I think on some of the finer points.

My opinions are generally set in the political sphere, and a Presidential address is just a semantic stunt to make me perk up at a certain platform. That won't happen!

I do my homework. I know the truth before hand. If you make an abrupt change in your thinking from a speech you are likely a political lemming.

Funny thing about primetime lies is that they are still lies!

Kathy Deloach

No they tell the people what they want to hear and most of it is BS

Ka San

Not from this guy!

Marija Peče

This is so stupid and I would like to instead see attention given to the corruption involved in government spending due to priorities given from lobbyists at the expense of important social programs

Trump tries to be a dictator, not a president of our nation. I don't believe anything he says because he lies so much. It is a tragic and dangerous situation we are in with this president.

The state refused to keep people and businesses safe. Someone needed to step in.

They have the right to demonstrate but they do not have the right to damage or destroy. Apparently local enforcement couldn't handle it. Stop it asap

Carol Garside

They are domestic terrorists, need to be stopped at any cost

Trump is agitating the situation. If Gov Newsom had thought it necessary he would have called them in. It was not Trump’s decision to make. Trump is merely trying to take over California because it is a mainly democratic state and he considers its citizens enemies

Ron Rommel

President Trump is escalating the issue.

Jeff Sanders

He's mad because California has never voted for him. Dictators do what Dictators do.
