If Trump's hoping to woo America in his speech, we have some bad news

On Tuesday night, President Trump will be presented with one of his favorite things: an audience.

That audience won’t be terribly big, it’s safe to say. State of the Union speeches generally track somewhere between Oscars and Grammy broadcasts in recent years, so we’re talking tens of millions of people, but not Super Bowl level audiences.

Regardless. An opportunity to speak for an hour or so to, say, 35 million people? That’s something that will appeal to Trump. It’s an opportunity for him to do the longform version of what he claims is his goal with his tweets: Speak to America without the media intervening.

If he’s hoping that America will respond by embracing him, the recent track record suggests that’s not likely.
