Many Democrats remained seated while President Trump touted a strong American economy during his third State of the Union address.

"The unemployment rate is the lowest in over half a century," Trump said on Tuesday. "And very incredibly, the average unemployment rate under my administration is lower than any administration in the history of our country."

"If we hadn't reversed the failed economic policies of the previous administration, the world would not now be witnessing this great economic success," he added.

Trump also said, "African American youth unemployment has reached an all-time low."

"African American poverty has declined to the lowest rate ever recorded," he said. "The unemployment rate for women reached the lowest level in almost 70 years, and last year, women filled 72% of all new jobs added."

Republicans stood and applauded while many Democrats sat, including House impeachment managers Adam Schiff, Jerry Nadler, and Hakeem Jeffries. At least one Democrat, Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, could be seen breaking ranks to stand and clap.
