Same show, different day.
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 …
