In a combative State of the Union speech – the longest in modern history at about 108 minutes – United States President Donald Trump defended his administration’s economic performance and hardline immigration agenda amid sagging poll numbers before the midterm elections.
Trump boasted that inflation is plummeting and gas prices are lower. He also defended his immigration efforts, which have caused turmoil in Democratic-run cities and resulted in the deaths of two US citizens shot by immigration agents.
