Trump to call for unity in address after divisive year

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump, facing sagging approval ratings in a midterm election year, is seeking to rally a deeply divided nation in Tuesday night's State of the Union address with optimism about the growing economy and calls for action on immigration, trade and infrastructure rebuilding. White House officials say Trump will appeal for bipartisanship, though it's unclear if his rhetoric will be matched by any real overtures to Democrats. Partisanship in Washington has only deepened in the year since Trump has taken office, driven in part by the president's bitingly personal attacks on his political rivals and Democrats' disgust with his policies and behavior.
