A high-stakes State of the Union just got harder for Trump [View all]

President Donald Trump didn’t hide it.

It’s a “disgrace,” he said during a breakfast with governors, looking at a note that told him his administration had just suffered a humiliating rebuke at the hands of a conservative Supreme Court, according to a governor who was in the room, granted anonymity to share details of the meeting.

Trump cut his remarks short and walked out of the room with his favorite presidential power and, by extension, his agenda, on a knife’s edge — four days ahead of the most important speech of the year.

The president’s primetime address to Congress on Tuesday was supposed to set the stage for a tough but disciplined midterm campaign focused on the administration’s efforts to lower costs for everyday Americans and tout his first-year accomplishments. Instead, he heads to the Hill amid a torrent of negative news.
