https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/special-guests-president-trumps-second-state-union-address/Trump's guest list for SOTU:
- Debra Bissell, Heather Armstrong, and Madison Armstrong: Family of the people murdered by that illegal alien who went on a serial killing spree in Reno last month
- Matthew Charles: Model prisoner who reformed his life and was released due to passage of first step act. Had 35 years in prison starting 1996, but was set free last month by the bill's passage
- Grace Eline: Child cancer survivor
- Ashley Evans: Former opioid addict
- Elvin Hernandez: Special agent for DHS's human trafficking division
- Roy James: Plant manager for a sawmill that reopened after the tax cuts
- Timothy Matson: SWAT member who was shot multiple times responding to the Tree of Life Synagogue attack
- Judah Samet: Holocaust survivor, IDF member and and Tree of Life shooting survivor
- Joshua Trump: A random kid of no relation and no particular noteworthiness except he has been bullied because his last name is Trump
- Tom Wibberley: Father of a sailor who died in the U.S.S. Cole attack
- Alice Johnson: Kim Kardashian's grandmother who Trump pardoned for drug offenses as part of the criminal justice reform push
that's quite the list. You couldn't assemble a more bulletproof set of optics
this list and the reasons why they are invited really reflect a "best of" of Trump's presidency:
immigration, jobs, public safety, opioids, business-friendliness, strengthening ties with the conservative half of the jewish and/or israeli society, criminal justice reform.
