In his State of the Union address, President Joe Biden spoke of his desire to find common ground with Republicans and highlighted some of their least popular policy proposals. He also discussed measures to create a “safer Europe” and a “blue-collar blueprint to rebuild America.” Biden’s speech was met with a standing ovation from Democrats and polite applause from Republicans, and it remains to be seen how his plans will be received by the public and if they will help him secure a second term in office.
