President Donald Trump's State of the Union address is anticipated to serve as a preview of the Republican Party's message for the upcoming November elections. The address comes at a time when public sentiment towards Donald Trump's economic leadership and immigration policies is low, and the United States===Supreme Court of the United States has recently curtailed his power to impose tariffs. While Donald Trump is expected to emphasize domestic issues, his threats of military strikes on Iran and past aggressive foreign policy actions in Yemen, Nigeria, and near South America, as well as the raid to capture Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela and the idea of seizing Denmark===Greenland, cast a shadow over the speech.
