The State of the Union is the fulfilment of the US Constitution’s mandate that the president “shall from time to time give to Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.” The address – which, until 1913 was usually a written report – is given to a joint session of Congress and widely broadcast. This year’s State of the Union address may be especially contentious, as Mr Trump’s impeachment trial will either be recently finished – likely through acquittal thanks to Senate Republicans – or actively ongoing. Should his hearing continue into the early days of February, Mr Trump won’t be the only president to have delivered a State of the Union during an impeachment trial. Following Mr Trump’s address, Gretchen Whitmer, the governor of Michigan, will deliver the Democratic response to the State of the Union.
