President Joe Biden's first State of the Union address is coming at a uniquely complicated time. We're bracing for the ripple effects of an international crisis and (still, somehow) in the midst of a pandemic, to name a couple of issues ailing the country. Hayes Brown's advice for Biden is, in a a nutshell, to not sugarcoat it for Americans when he addresses them Tuesday.
In his list of recommendations for the president, Brown points out one major risk that could pay off: "He could come out swinging against Republicans" — which would be a bold move in a forum usually reserved for bipartisanship by even the most partisan. The State of the Union "may be the last chance he has to offer up a vision that can become more than just ephemeral words on paper," Brown writes. We'll see just how bold, or compromising, Biden chooses to be.
