8 Reactions to President Trump's Speech to Congress
1. Van Jones
Leftwing social commentator Van Jones spoke positively of Trump's speech, especially the portion where the president honored the widow of U.S. Navy SEAL William Owens.
A staunch critic of the president, Jones stated on a segment aired by CNN that the tribute to the fallen hero "was one of the most extraordinary moments you have ever seen in American politics, period."
"Now, there was a lot that he said in that speech that was counterfactual, that was not right, that I oppose and will oppose," said Jones.
"But he did something tonight that you cannot take away from him. He became president of the United States."
