The latest Economist/YouGov survey reveals that a significant majority of American adults have no plans to watch President Joe Biden’s State of the Union (SOTU) address. Out of 1,556 respondents polled from March 3-5, 63 percent stated they would not watch the speech.
Of these, 47 percent expressed no interest in viewing it, while 16 percent wished to watch but anticipated being unable to. Conversely, only 37 percent intended to tune in. Among registered voters, 43 percent had no intention to watch, with 42 percent planning to do so.
Notably, a majority of independents (57 percent) and Democrats (52 percent) declared they would skip the address, while 56 percent of Republicans echoed the sentiment. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump announced plans for a live commentary on his Truth Social platform to fact-check Biden’s speech.
Furthermore, the Republican National Committee (RNC) anticipates this may be Biden’s final SOTU, criticizing his administration’s handling of inflation, border security, and international relations.
