Donald Trump has surprised the world once again, but this time by actually sounding like a president.
Speaking in front of Congress on Tuesday evening he gave Republican congressional leaders a rallying cry and even a roadmap for the future as they try to push through a sweeping and divisive agenda, including changes to healthcare and taxes.
House Speaker Paul Ryan declared the speech as a “home run” and even critics were surprised at the measured and sometimes even conciliatory tone of Trump’s address.
So just how different was it from the Trump of old?
