In preparation for Uncle Joe’s big speech, the Washington Examiner is dishing on all the juicy details. Apparently, President Joe Biden is gearing up to deliver his State of the Union address and boy, is it going to be a doozy. Not only is this a chance for him to toss out some buzzwords and give the public a general election pitch, but it’s also coming hot on the heels of the former president, Donald Trump, becoming Mr. Big Stuff over at the Republican primary. Talk about timing!

Now, apparently, old Joe plans to reel in some of those pesky Republican lawmakers and independent voters with his “Unity Agenda.” He’s gotta show the Democrats some love too, though, because apparently, some of them are side-eyeing his age and giving him the stink eye for how he handled that whole Israel-Hamas situation.
But get this, instead of blowing off those haters questioning his age, Biden’s ready to lean into it. He’s all, “Hey, I may be 81, but Big Don is a spry 77, so really, what are we even talking about?” But while he’s making those comparisons, he’s also taking a moment to remind folks about their different stances on issues like abortion and how they view democracy.
The White House is teasing that old Joe is gonna spill all the tea on how he’s learned some things in his 81 years, like embracing freedom and democracy. He’s coming in hot with talk about America’s core values and how he’s all about honesty, decency, and giving everyone a fair shake. And you better believe he’s throwing some shade, saying, “Some folks my age are all about that resentment, revenge, and retribution. But not me, honey.”
But wait, there’s more! Apparently, this shindig could be a whole hour and a half long! Better stock up on snacks, folks. And in case you’ve been living under a rock, this speech is coming at a pretty crucial time for old Joe. His approval ratings have been doing a little limbo dance, and Mr. Trump is apparently nipping at his heels in the polls. Just when you thought you could catch a break, right?
Of course, Uncle Joe can’t resist throwing his two cents into the economic pot. He’s gonna talk about how he’s been steering the ship during these tough times and how he’s been championing the greatest comeback story no one’s telling. He’s blasting off about building an economy from the middle and bottom up, not the top down, and making sure everyone has a fair shot. You go, Joe!
But let’s not forget about those moolah moves. Apparently, old Joe’s planning on juicing up the corporate tax rate, giving billionaires a little tap on the wallet, and expanding those Medicare taxes for the fancy folks. And he’s feeling pretty proud of himself for slashing drug prices and wiping out student loan debt. He’s not holding back, folks!
Oh, and did you catch wind of his guest list for this soiree? Yeah, apparently, he’s inviting the Swedish Prime Minister and some Navy Commander who’s been racking up the accolades. But some Democrats might be feeling a bit left out in the cold because they were hoping for more of a nod to the whole Israel-Hamas situation.
And just when you thought things couldn’t get any spicier, there’s talk of a little decorum drama. It seems some folks are having a tough time keeping their feathers unruffled. And as if that’s not enough, old Joe’s plannin’ to take this whole show on the road, hitting up Pennsylvania and Georgia.
Whew, looks like Uncle Joe’s got quite the show lined up. Whether you’re hootin’ and hollerin’ or shaking your head, it’s gonna be a talker, folks!
