While Trump held firm on his demands for border security and used the grand setting to tout his first-year accomplishments, his call for bipartisanship on the thorny immigration debate met with stonefaced stares from top Democrats such as House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
"Tonight, I am extending an open hand to work with members of both parties -- Democrats and Republicans -- to protect our citizens of every background, color, religion and creed," he said.
"If I could unite this country, I would consider it a tremendous success,” Trump said. “I would love to be able to bring back our country in a great form of unity, without a major event -- very tough to do. I would like to do it without a major event, because that major event is usually a bad thing.”
Members of the Congressional Black Caucus wore traditional kente cloth in protest of Trump's reported comments about immigration from “s---hole countries.”
During the speech, some caucus members declined to stand even to honor a 12-year-old guest of the first family who was recognized for gathering flags for veterans' graves.

The Democrats' protest tells us all how patriotic these people are and how they unite to hate the very Citizens they purport to represent. They really hate us and would rather see us die than applaud economic success in the country.
This will be the best film to finally destroy this Communist party in the 2018 elections.
These people are not Patriots. They hate our country. Bad citizens cannot be deported, but can br charged with crimes against our Government.
Time for the good president to stop kissing up to them. They have shown their true colors. You are judged by the company you keep. Cut them loose.
Democrats only want to destroy the Republican party and the US constitution along with it.
