The invitation from Pelosi comes after a planned January 29 date to give the address was scuttled due to the partial government shutdown. That led to a contentious back-and-forth between Trump and the House speaker before the president announced a deal to reopen the government on January 25.
“When I wrote to you on January 23rd, I stated that we should work together to find a mutually agreeable date when government has reopened to schedule this year’s State of the Union address," Pelosi wrote in her new invitation to Trump. "In our conversation today, we agreed on February 5th.
"Therefore, I invite you to deliver your State of the Union address before a Joint Session of Congress on February 5, 2019 in the House Chamber."
Shortly after receiving the invite, the president accepted.
"Thank you for your letter inviting me to deliver the State of the Union Address before a joint session of Congress on Tuesday, February 5, 2019," Trump wrote in reply. "It is my great honor to accept. We have a great story to tell and yet, great goals to achieve.
"I look forward to seeing you on the 5th."

He has to pretend that the biotch is in charge!
It's a date.
Wow I guess the president gets permission
I guess the speaker of the house runs our country now
No one needs to run for president anymore
Just run for the speaker of the house then your in charge of the country
Go figure
Can't wait to hear it and watch Pelsoi's face. She will be chewing that lip big time.
8:42 you are the one pretending. President Trump ALLOWED her to be “in charge” when he backed down from her by opening the government without securing wall funding! He clearly said he would not! Look at the so called negotiating supposedly going on.....at BEST all they will offer him is something much less than the 5.7 he has clearly said is his number.....I truthfully doubt they will offer a dime!
8:17am, I'm not at all pretending, you take a seat and watch what Trump does. He has not "allowed" anything. This man is way smarter than that corrupt pos will ever think to be, sit back and watch!
I hope Pelosi gets new dentures by the 5th. She will be behind Trump and I will hate to have to look at her as her dentures slip and slide. She is worth $196 million and with her Federal medical plan she should be able to get some choppers that fit.
My money is on “The Donald”
He da man!
Gee, thanks bunches Nance for allowing the president to make his speech. He could make mincemeat out of her.
And the Dims picked their whiny failed GA governor candidate to give the rebuttal.
Which team is she playing tackle for on Sunday?
