Will Attend SOTU With Rep. Duffy

A veteran who made headlines by offering to take Rep. Maxine Waters' seat at President Trump's first State of the Union address will indeed be in attendance.
After seeing Ricky Taylor's appearance Wednesday on "Fox & Friends," Rep. Sean Duffy (R-Wis.) invited him to the event and he accepted.
Waters (D-Calif.) is one of several Democrats who are skipping the event, telling MSNBC last week that Trump is "the most despicable human being that could possibly ever walk the earth."
"Why would I take my time to go and sit and listen to a liar? ... He doesn't deserve my attention," Waters said.
Her words struck a nerve with Taylor, a ten-year Army veteran, whose tweet to Fox News went viral. Taylor, who served two tours in Afghanistan, offered to take Waters' place so he could thank the president.
