Watch the State of the Union online: Time, channels and where to stream now
Watch the State of the Union online now (free stream below)
By the time you're reading this, U.S. President Donald J. Trump is about to deliver the 2020 State of the Union address. As is the norm these days, he's going to present his speech in the midst of a chaotic news week, in the aftermath of the Democrat's Iowa Caucus (results are still coming in) and while his own impeachment trial is still ongoing.
While we expect the President to take a victory lap on the former, he still may frame the latter as a success, as it appears he won't be removed from office.
President Donald J. Trump's State of the Union address started at 9 p.m. Eastern | 6 p.m. Pacific.
