House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), citing security concerns, wrote to Donald Trump yesterday, suggesting he either postpone his State of the Union address or submit it in writing. The president didn’t immediately reply, though he sent a rather remarkable written response this afternoon. It read in its entirety:

“Due to the Shutdown, I am sorry to inform you that your trip to Brussels, Egypt, and Afghanistan has been postponed. We will reschedule this seven-day excursion when the Shutdown is over. In light of the 800,000 great American workers not receiving pay, I am sure you would agree that postponing this public relations event is totally appropriate. I also feel that, during this period, it would be better if you were in Washington negotiating with me and joining the Strong Border Security movement to end the Shutdown. Obviously, if you would like to make your journey by flying commercial, that would certainly be your prerogative.

“I look forward to seeing you soon and even more forward to watching our open and dangerous Southern Border finally receive the attention, funding, and security it so desperately deserves!”

For a man who claims not to throw tantrums, today’s petty announcement offers compelling evidence to the contrary.
