White House officials said Trump planned to highlight areas where he believes he can work with Democrats, including infrastructure and prescription drug pricing. The focus on reaching across the aisle is a tacit admission from the White House that Trump may need a course correction if he is to win re-election. Trump and his top aides have also hinted that he is likely to use the address to announce a major milestone in the fight against the Islamic State group in Syria. Administration officials say the White House has also been weighing several "moonshot" goals. "He will be asking for bipartisan support to make that happen," said White House counselor Kellyanne Conway.
