Michigan voters weigh in on President Trump's speech to Congress

President Trump won Michigan by fewer than 11,000 votes in November, the slimmest margin of victory in a presidential race in the state’s history.

So, how do voters in Michigan feel about him now? CBS News traveled to Grand Rapids, Michigan, to give voters in the Wolverine state the last word on Mr. Trump’s address to Congress, his first since taking office.

Grand Rapids was the site of the final stop of Trump’s campaign, where he appeared just hours before polls opened on Election Day. He returned in December as part of his “thank you” tour after the election.

Among those gathered at the Hideout Brewery on Tuesday night to watch the president’s speech was Shirley Hampton. She needed no convincing, saying Mr. Trump came across as a leader in his address to the joint session of Congress.

Upstairs, the reviews were more mixed. Damien Sanchez and Chris Peterson argued over Trump’s call for unity. 

At breakfast on Wednesday, we found an answer to the Democrats’ questions about what type of people could support Mr. Trump.
