Rather than taking this evening as an opportunity to attempt to unify a deeply divided nation, President Trump instead delivered a State of the Union address that seemed focused solely on rallying his own political supporters behind him.
I'm especially stunned the President walked into the House chamber and declared he wants to protect Americans with preexisting conditions, despite the fact that he has spent three years undermining the ACA, putting those protections at risk for more than 3 million Virginians.
If the President really means what he says about protecting people with preexisting conditions, he should immediately direct the Department of Justice to reverse its support for a lawsuit designed to take down the health care law in its entirety...
... and instead work with Democrats to lower health care and prescription drug costs and end surprise medical billing.
