President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address is on Tuesday night. Here are some of the most memorable moments of his previous State of the Union addresses and joint addresses to Congress.  2025: Trump Swears in 13-Year-Old Cancer Survivor as Honorary Secret Service Agent In Trump’s 2025 Joint Address to Congress, he introduced DJ Daniel, a 13-year-old cancer survivor whose dream is to become a police officer.  “And tonight, DJ, we’re going to do you the biggest honor of them all,” Trump said. “I am asking our new Secret Service Director, Sean Curran, to officially make you an agent of the United States Secret Service.” Doctors believe Daniel’s cancer resulted from exposure to a harmful chemical, Trump said.  “Since 1975, rates of child cancer have increased by more than 40%,” Trump said. “Reversing this trend is one of the top priorities for our new Presidential Commission to Make America Healthy Again.” 2020: Trump Surprises Woman With Husband’s Return At his State of the Union address in 2020, Trump surprised Amy Williams, a mother of two, with the return of her husband from deployment in Afghanistan.  “Tonight, we have a very special surprise,” Trump said. “I am thrilled to inform you that your husband is back from deployment. He is here with us tonight, and we couldn’t keep him waiting any longer.” Trump said war places a burden on military families, including the Williams family. “For the past seven months, she has done it all while her husband, Sgt. 1st Class Townsend Williams, is in Afghanistan on his fourth deployment in the Middle East,” he said. “Amy’s kids haven’t seen their father’s face in many months.  Amy, your family’s sacrifice makes it possible for all of our families to live in safety and in peace, and we want to thank you.” 2019: Trump Declares War on Late-Term Abortion In 2019, Trump asked Congress to pass legislation to prohibit abortions past the age that unborn babies can feel pain. “Let us work together to build a culture that cherishes innocent life,” Trump said. “And let us reaffirm a fundamental truth: all children—born and unborn—are made in the holy image of God.” Trump criticized Democrats who support legal abortion up to birth.  “Lawmakers in New York cheered with delight upon the passage of legislation that would allow a baby to be ripped from the mother’s womb moments before birth,” he continued. “These are living, feeling, beautiful babies who will never get the chance to share their love and dreams with the world.”   2018: Trump Begins ‘New American Moment’ In Trump’s 2018 State of the Union address, he declared the start of a new “American moment.”  “There has never been a better time to start living the American dream,” he said.  Trump told viewers that anyone who works hard can succeed.  “So to every citizen watching at home tonight—no matter where you have been, or where you come from, this is your time,” Trump said. “If you work hard, if you believe in yourself, if you believe in America, then you can dream anything, you can be anything, and together, we can achieve anything.” Trump said under his leadership, the nation was “rediscovering the American way.” He said faith and family, not government and bureaucracy, were at the center of American life.  “Tonight, I want to talk about what kind of future we are going to have, and what kind of nation we are going to be,” he said. “All of us, together, as one team, one people, and one American family.”  2017: Trump Honors Victims of Illegal Immigrants In Trump’s 2017 joint address to Congress, he honored the family members of those killed by illegal immigrants. Jamiel Shaw’s 17-year-old son was killed by an illegal immigrant gang member who was released from prison. “Jamiel Shaw Jr. was an incredible young man, with unlimited potential who was getting ready to go to college where he would have excelled as a great college quarterback,” Trump said. “But he never got the chance.” He also honored Susan Oliver and Jessica Davis, whose husbands, Deputy Sheriff Danny Oliver and Detective Michael Davis, were killed in the line of duty in California by illegal immigrants. “They were pillars of their community,” he said. “These brave men were viciously gunned down by an illegal immigrant with a criminal record and two prior deportations.  Should have never been in our country.” “Sitting with Susan is her daughter, Jenna,” he added. “Jenna, I want you to know that your father was a hero, and that tonight you have the love of an entire country supporting you and praying for you.” Trump promised to fight for the victims’ memories. “To Jamiel, Jenna, Susan and Jessica, I want you to know that we will never stop fighting for justice,” he said. “Your loved ones will never, ever be forgotten.” The post Most Memorable Moments of Trump’s Previous State of the Union Addresses appeared first on The Daily Signal.
