WHITE HOUSE - U.S. President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he would make an alternative speech after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told him there would be no State of the Union address in Congress next week — an action that he termed "a disgrace."
"She doesn't want to hear the truth," Trump told reporters. "She doesn't want the American public to hear what's going on."
The president said that Pelosi's decision not to allow the address to Congress until the government shutdown ends was "a great blotch on the incredible country that we all love," and her action would be remembered as "a very, very negative part of history."
He then went on to declare that the Democrats have "become a very, very dangerous party for this country."
Trump did not reveal where and when he would make his alternative address. ?
