President Trump and Speaker Pelosi haven’t spoken since mid-October when he called her a third-grade politician and she said all roads under Trump lead to Putin.
Pelosi is trying to unseat the President. When he entered the Chamber, she did not use the customary salutation that it was her high honor.
Pelosi broke congressional tradition and introduced him as only “the President of the United States” during the State of the Union address.
Previous House Speakers have said it is their “high privilege and distinct honor” of presenting the president.
