Without getting too caught up in the politics of this (just don’t have the time at the moment), I am wondering if anything like this has ever happened before in a State of the Union Address.
Here is a video of the Obama facedown. If you look closely, you can see Justice Samuel Alito mouthing the words “not true.”
And, in fact, what Obama said wasn't true. Another way to phrase the question would be has a president ever so badly misrepresented a Supreme Court decision in the State of the Union address that it required this kind of response?
