What to Make of Trump's Record-Long SOTU
Amanpour
Feb 25, 2026

Donald Trump beat his own record Tuesday night, delivering the longest State of the Union speech in American history. The president boasted about his accomplishments while slamming Democrats for "destroying the country." Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger gave the rebuttal, focused squarely on what her party considers Trump's weakness right now: kitchen table issues. 

Joining the program to discuss is Gregg Nunziata, Executive Director of the Society for the Rule of Law, and Susan Glasser, a longtime journalist and staff writer for the New Yorker.
