Speaking on Fox News&#8217;s &#8220;Fox &#038; Friends First,&#8221; Concha argued that the immediate negative commentary from outlets like MSNBC and CNN was expected and repetitive. He also dismissed claims that Trump appeared nervous during the speech, noting Trump&#8217;s extensive experience with public speaking. In his address, Trump promised 1.45 million American service members a &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >warrior dividend<\/a>&#8221; bonus of $1,776 before Christmas, while criticizing Democratic messaging on affordability and blaming rising inflation on the previous Democratic governance. The piece also touched on the political context, with republicans currently holding both the Senate and House majorities but facing uncertain prospects in the 2026 midterm elections.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Joe Concha dismisses negative analysis &lsquo;slop&rsquo; of Trump&rsquo;s speech<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2448949\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p><em>Washington Examiner<\/em> senior writer <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/in_focus\/3920323\/the-five-most-uncovered-and-inaccurate-stories-of-2025\/\">Joe Concha<\/a> said the analysis of President Donald Trump&rsquo;s speech from TV news personalities seemed &ldquo;predetermined&rdquo; and &ldquo;prewritten&rdquo; to be negative.<\/p>\n<p>Concha appeared on Fox News&rsquo;s <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/shows\/fox-friends-first\"><em>Fox &amp; Friends First<\/em><\/a>  on Thursday, the day after Trump addressed the nation.
