Quiet end to an exciting day:

It's been a dramatic two days for President Trump and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Here's a quick rundown of all that went down:

I was extremely calm yesterday with my meeting with Pelosi and Schumer, knowing that they would say I was raging, which they always do, along with their partner, the Fake News Media. Well, so many stories about the meeting use the Rage narrative anyway - Fake & Corrupt Press!

Here is a 7+ minute video, from ABC, of Trump calling on multiple senior aides to defend him and vouch for his 'calm' demeanor in the infrastructure meeting with Democrats after Nancy Pelosi said that he'd had a temper tantrum. pic.twitter.com/iiLcrjnTe4

When the "extremely stable genius" starts acting more presidential, I'll be happy to work with him on infrastructure, trade and other issues. https://t.co/tfWVkj9CLT
