Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro, along with hosts Matt Walsh, Andrew Klavan, and company co-founder Jeremy Boreing, slammed President Joe Biden on Thursday over his State of the Union, saying that it was one of the angriest addresses in American history.
The comments came during their live reaction on “Backstage” to Biden’s State of the Union in which he repeatedly attacked former President Donald Trump and yelled throughout. Biden’s speech focused on Ukraine, abortion, and the economy. He also launched repeated attacks on Republicans.
“It was honestly the worst State of the Union address that’s maybe ever been given, especially for the first 30 minutes,” Daily Wire host Matt Walsh said. “Angry, slurring, started with the most hyper-partisan issues he possibly could.”
Walsh added that it may have been “the angriest State of the Union” that had ever been given, ripping him for talking about Ukraine and the size of chip bags before addressing the border crisis.
Daily Wire host Andrew Klavan agreed, saying that Biden has always been angry and mean throughout his lengthy political career.
“This guy has always been this guy. He’s always been an angry, mean, hateful, corrupt, little son of a gun,” Andrew Klavan said. “This might be the only State of the Union that ever accomplished anything, which might be getting Donald Trump elected.”
“I think people are going to remember that screaming, I think they are going to remember the sound of that voice just scolding everybody and yelling at everybody,” Klavan added. “Who the hell is he to do that? What has he accomplished that he should be yelling at us for being unhappy that the price of food has gone up 35% since he took office.”

Shapiro agreed, saying that the “screaming” was going to be most viewers’ takeaway from the speech.
“The entire opening of the speech was about how his fellow Americans are terrible and evil and corrupt and vicious and insurrectionists,” Shapiro said. “He is currently running the worst re-election campaign we have ever seen.”
Trump, who has risen ahead of Biden in many recent polls in key swing states, also ripped Biden over his speech.
“That may be the Angriest, Least Compassionate, and Worst State of the Union Speech ever made,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “It was an Embarrassment to our Country!”
