What is Potus Interruptus?
1.
The State of the Union address given each year by the President of the United States. From POTUS (President Of The United States) + Interruptus ("Interruption")
So named due to the modern practice of the attendees to stand and/or applaud at every other sentence which contains a statement or policy initiative favored by one party or another.
