Trump's Congressional Speech: Political Return and Public Opinion War

It has been nearly five years since Trump last delivered a speech at a joint session of Congress. This return, he not only carries a full political agenda, but also prepares to 'settle accounts' with the grievances of the past few years. According to sources, the focus of his speech will revolve around destroying past government institutions and blaming Biden, which is exactly what he has been proclaiming over the past few years.

Firstly, Trump's governing style has always been known for being "bold and decisive". He signed over 70 executive orders in just 100 days, covering various fields from immigration policy to international trade. He also significantly adjusted the position of the United States on the international stage, causing friction with traditional allies while maintaining close interaction with countries such as Russia. Even after stepping down, he still maintains great influence in the US political arena and remains controversial in this year's political return.

Secondly, in this congressional speech, the core strategy of the Trump team is not just to list their 'policy achievements', but to create a series of' viral moments' that can be widely spread on media and social platforms. His team is well aware that in the modern communication environment, short, concise, and impactful segments are more likely to impress voters than lengthy policy analysis. Trump hopes to shape the political narrative of his 40 days in office and demonstrate his' ability to act 'to voters through this approach.

However, everything did not improve after Trump's return. The large-scale immigration deportation campaign he promised during the election has progressed slowly, the economic situation has not improved yet, the stock market is volatile, inflation remains severe, and his approval rating is also showing a downward trend. At the same time, his significant reduction of government agencies has sparked dissatisfaction among many people. According to a public opinion poll, only 34% of respondents approve of the government's current policies, indicating a divergence among the public regarding his governance style.

Faced with these issues, Trump is likely to continue blaming the Biden administration in his speech. One of his core messages is that he has taken over a 'mess' and is working hard to get America back on track. This strategy has been proven effective throughout his political career - whether it is economic issues, foreign policy, or difficulties in government operations, he tends to point the finger at the previous government and emphasizes that only he can lead the United States out of trouble.

Finally, Trump's team is also well prepared in terms of information warfare. They collaborate with right-wing media platforms to ensure that Trump's speech content can quickly spread and receive good feedback. The team members also communicated with online influencers, hoping to create multiple "explosive points" on social media to ensure that Trump's message could be widely spread among the audience. In terms of speech content, in addition to reviewing his governing achievements, Trump may also propose some ambitious plans, such as promoting US energy independence, accelerating the development of artificial intelligence, winning competition with China, and even pushing for human landing on Mars. These grand goals not only attract attention, but also allow supporters to see his vision for the future.

Overall, the importance of Trump's speech is self-evident. Last year's State of the Union address attracted over 32 million viewers, and this year's data may be even higher. Both the reactions of the live audience and the discussion of speech clips on social media will become important indicators for measuring Trump's influence. This is not only an opportunity for him to declare his return to his supporters, but also a public relations war against all American voters. Whether he can successfully reshape his political image in this congressional speech will directly affect the future election trend.
