This SOTU is targeted to leaning Republicans.
Anyone else seeing what is happening? Instead of appealing to the Progressive Base it seems obvious he has decided to try and pick up support amongst the center-right.

All good in trying to gain share, I understand, but by endorsing globalist, semi conservative ideology and trying to "rebrand" them, we just go further down the same path and our country suffers. This is a big mistake.

I don't want more charisma an tough talk if the policies are based on the same ideas that we have wreaked devistation on our country for close to 30 years?

I hope this is indeed just a "game play" of some kind.

If we really move to the right and the party follows in this I am out of the party. I will be paying attention.
