When Trump calls for "cooperation, compromise and the common good," the obvious reaction is, you first. And amazingly, that's the sentiment Nancy Pelosi, positioned for the speech right behind Trump's left shoulder, managed to get across with no words, but only her aggressively pointed applause.

In his State of the Union last night—the one that Nancy Pelosi allowed him to have—one of the issues that President Trump highlighted was the favorite propaganda term of the anti-choice right: "late-term abortion."
