Minority Whip Katherine Clark, who skipped last night’s State of the Union address, criticized President Donald Trump for ignoring “real issues” during his speech and speaking about a “golden age that really only applies to Donald Trump.”

“He is the only one who is truly benefiting economically from his presidency,” Clark told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.

The Massacusetts Democrat highlighted the negative impact of Trump’s tariff policies on small businesses, saying small business owners she has spoken to are “feeling like it is a matter of time before their doors close.”

“Donald Trump always had wide approval on his handling of the economy, and he is so under water with the American people and nothing about the vision he put out last night addresses that anxiety,” Clark said.
