Analyst dubs Trump's State of the Union the 'most openly racist in history'

President Donald Trump delivered the longest State of the Union address in history Tuesday night, with extended attacks on undocumented migrants and Somali Americans that news outlet Zeteo characterized as the "most openly racist State of the Union in modern history." Reporters Asawin Suebsaeng and Andrew Pérez wrote that Trump spent significant portions of the nearly two-hour address attacking Somali Americans with language comparable to "banned 4chan content." Trump has targeted Somali Americans since last year, calling them "garbage" and stating he didn't want them in the country. During the address, Trump referenced "Somali pirates who ransack Minnesota," claiming such lawlessness stems from unrestricted immigration. Suebsaeng and Pérez called the address "certainly one of the worst" in history, noting the lukewarm response from Republican lawmakers.
