Here's the best thing about how House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) shut down President Trump's State of the Union speech before Congress: For such a high-profile clash, the stakes were so
incredibly low. Trump was going to give a speech on January 29. Now he'll still give the speech, but at a later date.
Nevertheless, this was an important moment. The president on Wednesday tried to bluster and bully his way into giving the speech before Congress, despite a clear signal from Pelosi that the
event should be, at the very least, delayed until the partial government shutdown comes to an end. Pelosi didn't flinch, and Trump ended the day disinvited and defeated, sheepishly
acknowledging the Speaker's prerogatives.
