President Biden’s State of the Union speech Tuesday night featured a sarcastic round of applause from Sen. Ted Cruz about the need for border security, Sen. Chuck Schumer catching himself before applauding prematurely, and assurances that Vladimir Putin will never win the hearts of the “Iranian people.” But the end of Biden’s speech was a bit more cryptic, and the last three words have people guessing:
"Go get him!" Pres. Biden says at the very close of #SOTU remarks. https://t.co/SLfrkxjM7F pic.twitter.com/bD5j7vQhNo

What did Biden mean by “Go get him,” at the end? Did he think he was ending a pre-game speech? pic.twitter.com/pq9kweUroP

Maybe we’ll find out at the next State of the Union address.
What did Biden mean by this? "God bless our troops, go get him.”

The NBC panel attempting to translate “Go get him!” is performance art.

The speechwriters might have decided to end this particular speech with a cliffhanger.

Biden concludes by telling our troops, "go get him!"
Um…whom?

Wait… is there a chance that Biden either heard or read the line… "Go get him" which was intended to be for his handlers to pull him out of there?
