On the eve of President Biden’s first State of the Union address, Monday, the broadcast networks previewed his big speech, and each took a different approach, with ABC lamenting that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine “forced” Biden to change his speech and CBS touting a fence around the Capitol. NBC was the outlier that showed Biden’s new terrible poll numbers from… ABC!
“And Mary, the President and his team forced to rework parts of this speech in light of this Russian invasion,” ABC’s World News Tonight anchor David Muir huffed as he directed his question to senior White House correspondent Mary Bruce. “I'm curious what your sources are telling you tonight about how the President plans to reshape his message to the American people.”
Bruce joined in by bemoaning how, “this is going to be a very different speech than the one the President was probably envisioning, just a few weeks ago.”

Meanwhile, on CBS Evening News, anchor Norah O’Donnell had a strange chipper tone as she announced the return of the “non-scalable fences” around the Capitol in preparation for the address.
~Snip~
NBC Nightly News stood in stark contrast to the others as chief White House correspondent Kristen Welker called out how “a majority of Americans say the President cannot be trusted in a crisis.”



Commentary:
The three videos I've posted here best describe what we will hear tomorrow night in the delivery by our dear president at the SOTU. The question will be, if Pelosi stands up and destroys her copy of the SOTU, or will she clap her silly head off at every pause in Biden's speech?

It won't matter, I won't be watching.....Then again I watch the NASCAR restrictor plate races just for the wrecks. Maybe Tater will shit his pants.

 

[White 6]

It will probably be a better speech, due to the crises of Russia attacking Ukraine and the good job Joe has done in dealing with it.

 

[Sunni Man]

Any excuse for vegetable Joe not having to incoherently mumble in public is a win for the Demtards. ....

You can't put a pretty dress and lipstick on this pig.

Biden could shit his pants on TEE VEE, and cough in his cabinet's mouths and you would still defend his performance.

 

[White 6]

I bet he can state the situation as it is known, the steps he took to monitor and make the threat known, raising the alarm to the country and the world. Maybe that the efforts have paid off, helping to galvanize this country behind sanctions that have been taken up across Europe and elsewhere around the world. Pretty good leadership, in my book. The vast majority of Americans are behind the sanctions, so pretty good leadership for a change in their book. I am hardly the only one that has notice.
" Biden Has Done a Good Job
In the weeks leading up to the Russian invasion, Joe Biden used his administration to loudly and transparently demonstrate that Putin’s irredentist claims were bunk and that the looming invasion was a premeditated act of aggression.

He simultaneously worked—quietly—with NATO and the EU to achieve a larger consensus than there has been on any military matter before the alliance since . . . well, let’s call it a generation.

Biden did not draw lines in the sand. He did not personalize the conflict. He did not turn himself into the star of the show. He did not allow anyone, anywhere, to believe that this was about America.

Since the invasion, Biden has been a full partner with our European allies. He has not pushed them into decisions. He recognized that having a united front was more important than any particular aspect of the response. And after only four days Europe came to the conclusion—on its own—that it would do everything the American foreign policy establishment had wanted. Biden understood that these countries needed to come to the decision to fight back on their own, and not be publicly cajoled into it.1

Biden also understood that the EU and NATO are actually very powerful allies and that when they work in concert with the United States, we represent a significant geopolitical force.

At home, by not being publicly domineering, Biden has made it much harder for Republicans to polarize public opinion over Ukraine. Because Joe Biden has not allowed Ukraine to become an issue about Joe Biden. This should make the continued prosecution of Russia more tenable in the short and medium term.

---

Biden has done all of this—a hawk’s dream response—without escalating the conflict or pushing the West closer to kinetic warfare with Russia.

The West is stronger because of the actions of the Biden administration and Russia is weaker because of them.

The last month has represented America’s best showing in foreign policy in a generation, and this with a president playing a weak hand in a crisis forced on the country.

It would be nice if Biden got some credit for this from the public. He’s only making it look easy.2"

It takes an alliance.
