Locked out of House by Pelosi, Trump vows State of Union alternative

On Speaker Pelosi's move to lock him out of the House, Trump said at a White House meeting on border security, "It's a disgrace." Pelosi told the president that for now she would not consider a measure authorizing the speech, an annual, televised rite in American politics traditionally delivered in the House chamber. “Again, I look forward to welcoming you to the House on a mutually agreeable date for this address when government has been opened,” Pelosi said to Trump in a letter. Earlier in the day, Trump essentially dared her to disinvite him from making the speech, which was set for next Tuesday.
