President Joe Biden began his State of the Union address by attacking Donald Trump.

Republican lawmakers criticized Joe Biden’s State of the Union address as divisive and more like a campaign speech than a unifying moment.

President Biden spoke for just over an hour about his administration’s accomplishments, such as reducing prescription drug costs and stabilizing a turbulent economy.

He also criticized Republicans for impeding his agenda and criticized them for restricting reproductive rights and not supporting his recent efforts to pass border security measures.

He took many shots at former President Donald Trump, whom Biden referred to several times as “my predecessor,” but never by name.

Meanwhile, members of the Republican Party said after the State of the Union that Biden did more to divide Americans than unite them.

“It was out of touch and perhaps the most divisive State of the Union I have ever seen,” Sen. Schmitt, R-Mo., told DailyMail.com.
