Rick Klein: Nothing has been quite what its been in the past under President Trump. Why should the normally staid pageantry of a joint-session speech be any different? There will be a teleprompter, but no guarantee that hell stick to it. The world will be watching for any distinctly Trump flourishes, and whether anything he says will bring Democrats to their feet - or keep Republicans off of theirs.
Then there are questions of family, including how many Trump children will be in attendance. Its also a high-profile night for first lady Melania Trump, who will be making one of her first official appearances in hosting guests in her box in the House chamber.

Dare we hope for a Democratic walk out? That'd be nothing like we've seen in the past.

And then watch the press report as if they had not just been impugned by the Felon in Chief.
