Trump to Address joint session of Congress

Tonight at 5pm President Trump will be addressing a joint session of Congress for the first time.
It will be covered by all of the major networks.
While it would be educational and quite entertaining, I am not requiring you to sit and watch the entire speech. After the speech end you can go to any news website and see the high points of the address. For an "unbiased" report, I suggest you go to BBC.com or Al Jazeera.com.

Trump addressing joint session today. (5pm)
-what was the tone? 
-Was it presidential?
-what were the main points he made?
-Did he try to unite?


This will be due at the beginning of the period tomorrow(3/1/17). 
No make-up or late entries allowed.
