President Donald Trump was formally announced — “Mr. Speaker, the President of the United States!” — as he entered the U.S. Capitol to deliver his 2026 State of the Union address. The traditional introduction, delivered before a joint session of Congress, marks the official start of one of the most high-profile speeches of the year. Lawmakers, Supreme Court justices, military leaders, and invited guests rose as Trump made his way into the House chamber for the annual address.
