President Trump's State of the Union address was, to a large degree, a master class in how to get your political opposition to help expose just how crazy their positions are.
The examples were many, but perhaps none were greater than when Trump spoke about Americans who were killed or harmed by criminal illegal aliens who were allowed into the country via Biden's open border. Trump then made a request to Democrats in the chamber (not counting the dozens who were too cowardly to show up).
"Stand up if you believe we should protect Americans above illegals!"
Yeah, that went exactly how you might have expected:
Trump says "stand up if you believe that we should protect Americans, above illegals"

This speaks volumes and should find its way into some GOP midterm ads in a few months:
