The article includes social-media quotes and tweets that echo the stance of Democrats \u201csitting\u201d for these issues, such as the call for lower drug prices and protecting citizens. It notes that the onyl Democrat who stood for much of the speech was Rep. Al Green, who carried a sign and was escorted out to chants of \u201cUSA.\u201d The piece emphasizes a pro-Trump, anti-Democrat angle and weaves in additional embedded content and advertising references.  <\/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\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?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<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s somewhat predictable that the <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >opposing party won&#038;rsquo<\/a>;t stand for some agenda items during a president&rsquo;s State of the Union address.
