Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) expressed his views on President Biden's State of the Union address, highlighting a moment that resonated with him.
During an appearance on Fox News's "The Ingraham Angle," Gingrich remarked, "I think at the end when he left," in response to a query from host Laura Ingraham about any particularly inspiring moments in Biden's speech.
Current Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) also shared his perspective on the address, noting his visible disagreement with the content. Johnson, who sat behind the president during the speech, stated, "I tried to keep a poker face, but it was very difficult. I disagreed so vehemently with so much of what he said." Johnson further expressed his belief that the American people shared his sentiments, emphasizing his lack of enthusiasm for the speech.
Gingrich, in his analysis of the address, criticized it as "the most hateful, divisive and destructive speech ever given at a State of the Union." He predicted that Biden's remarks would alienate a significant portion of the population, leading them to withhold their support for the president in the future.
During Biden's speech, he took aim at likely GOP presidential nominee, former President Trump, on multiple occasions. This occurred shortly after former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley, a prominent figure in the GOP, exited the presidential primary race.
