How did President Trump perform at the State of the Union?

Ben Ferguson 1:01
I love it when we get to have a joint address to Congress, the State of the Union, and Senator Cruz and I get to do a combined podcast. Welcome. It is Verdict with Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you. And for my audience, you're going to hear the same show on the Ben Ferguson podcast. So welcome to you guys as well. Senator, you just left.
Senator Ted Cruz 1:19
I'm curious. For a joint address, do you call your show Ben Ferguson with Ted Cruz? Yes.
Ben Ferguson 1:24
That's right. Ben Ferguson with Ted Cruz. That's a great audible. I'm digging that right there.
Senator Ted Cruz 1:29
There you go. I'm just trying to help you out.
Ben Ferguson 1:32
I like that. A Ben Ferguson podcast with Ted Cruz. We'll get a sign made, get a logo done. I'm sold. I'm sold. You just left the joint session, Senator, and it was one hell of a night. If there's anything you can say, Democrats pretty much stood for nothing at all.

What was the Democratic response to Trump's State of the Union?

Senator Ted Cruz 1:50
Well, look, this is where doing the podcast is fun. It is 1228 in the morning. I just got got home to my D.C. apartment about five minutes ago and just left the State of the Union and the State of the Union. I got to say it was, I think, a spectacular State of the Union address from President Trump. It's the fifth one he's given. I think it was triumphant. I think it was positive. I think it was forward looking. I think it emphasized exactly. what you and I predicted in Monday's pod that he was going to emphasize. It emphasized promises made, promises kept, the victories we've seen in the first month and a half of the presidency. But I've got to say, all of that was overshadowed in many ways by the utterly disgraceful behavior of the Democrats.
Senator Ted Cruz 2:39
It was something I've never seen before. It was shocking. It was disrespectful. It was defiant. It was delusional. We're going to break it all down. We're going to break down the best parts of the speech, the best things President Trump had to say, and we're going to talk about what it indicates that today's Democrat Party stands for nothing, applauds for nothing, does not cheer on America. It is something never before seen at a State of the Union address. We're going to break it down and what it means.
Ben Ferguson 3:10
Yeah, it was truly an incredible night. And like you said, I think it's probably the best speech the president's ever given. I want to tell you real quick about our friends over at the IFCJ. After more than a year of war, terror, and pain in Israel, all of Israel is brokenhearted after learning of the tragic deaths of the Beavis children who were held hostage in Gaza. And so many are still hurting throughout the Holy Land, where the need for aid is unfortunately continuing to grow. That is where the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews has stepped in. And you have stepped in to help support the families of the hostages and other victims of the October 7th terror attacks. And with your help, IFCJ has provided financial and emotional help to hostages and their families, and to those healing and rebuilding their broken homes and broken bodies. But the real work is really just beginning.
