as an empty ritual that could just as well be delivered by email.
President Joe Biden arrives to deliver the State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress at the Capitol, Tuesday, Feb 7, 2023, in Washington. .

He played a game that both parties have long indulged in – attacking an unpopular position that someone on the other side, perhaps with a handful of allies, has advanced. It’s the policy equivalent of making MTG or AOC the face of the opposition.
