Fetterman hailed Trump's SOTU speech as 'powerful' for honoring veterans as other Dems were more critical

"I think he was able to maintain energy through it. I mean he's 80 years old. I thought it was very powerful to honor a lot of the veterans there," Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., said.

Fetterman was just one of a handful of Democrats to respond to inquiries from Fox News Digital after Trump's speech.

Other Democrats also said they had immigration-related takeaways.

Rep. Lou Correa, D-Calif., said he believes the president isn't doing enough to accommodate undocumented immigrants looking for a lawful way to become a part of the country.
