Trump and Pelosi haven't spoken in months

When he delivers his State of the Union address Tuesday evening, President Donald Trump will directly cross paths with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for the first time in months.

According to a Pelosi spokesman, the two have not spoken since the October 16 meeting in which Trump insulted Pelosi, including calling her a "third-grade politician," before she and other top Democrats walked out and later accused Trump of having a "meltdown." That meeting was supposed to be about Syria.

The lack of communication comes amid Trump's impeachment proceedings but is all the more remarkable given the number of high-profile events that have impacted the US during that time, including the killing of top Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani and ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

Trump said Sunday he will likely have a difficult time working with Democrats after his expected acquittal vote.

Trump has the social graces of a toddler.

He runs his mouth way too much, people are getting tired of his constantly yelling wolf, etc.

I swear he's like the antagonist in some Horatio Alger stories: the brattish, grasping, self-important, earned-nothing, got-everything-from-daddy wealthy kid who expects everything to be done for him, and puts the screws on the protagonist at every turn just because the P won't let himself be daunted.

When the mask falls off the face of Authoritarianism, what more could she say to him?

This is what I imagine a future Anne Frank would hear at bedtime, our dangerous present distilled down to its essence:

Let's try our best to make #MitchTrial synonymous with Mistrial and burn his pruned soul with it.
