Yes, this is the front page of the Washington Post after Trump's speech
Update, Jan. 31, 1:25 a.m. ET: This story has been updated to include the final front page from the Washington Post.
During his first State of the Union speech, Donald Trump characterized immigrants as violent gang members, pushed for more nukes, and vilified athletes who protest police brutality.
But that's not the story the first edition of the Washington Post told.

People who saw Trump's speech were, um, a little confused. Apparently, the fact that Donnie didn't rip off his shirt and scream "MAGA!" in Nancy Pelosi's face was very "presidential."

To recap: Trump gave a speech full of statements rated false by PolitiFact (also known as "lies"), took a dig at Dreamers, praised a North Korean refugee even though he banned refugees from North Korea, avoided any mention of Russia or his administration's attack on the FBI and DOJ, and did nothing to calm fears of a potentially disastrous war.
If that's a bipartisan State of the Union address, I'd hate to see one where he's pandering to his base. Maybe next time the Washington Post can take a note from the Daily News' playbook.
