President Donald Trump will address the nation in a televised address at 8 p.m.

He intends to preview his agenda for next year and beyond in a live speech from the White House.

His remarks are coming at a crucial time as he tries to rebuild his steadily eroding popularity. Public polling shows most U.S. adults are frustrated with his handling of the economy as inflation picked up after his tariffs raised prices and hiring slowed.

The White House offered few details about what the Republican president intends to emphasize in the speech.
