The left doubts Trump will deliver on State of the Union’s unity promise
The State of the Union address didn’t impress many on the left, who saw a president miss an opportunity to unite the country. A roundup of editorials Wednesday takes a look at what President Donald Trump missed in the speech..
Opinions from the left:
1. Trump's Insubstantial State of the Union
From Bloomberg: Trump didn’t take the opportunity to change his playbook. He should have.
I realized listening to Trump read his State of the Union, I don’t trust one word that man utters. I was unmoved by all of it. Meaningless. Like listening to him read from my car’s owner’s manual telling me how to operate the sound system. Made me sleepy.

From columnist Ezra Klein: Trump has not grown in his role, and that is a shame.
