“This is really the key. These are the people we were elected to serve,” he said as the shot cut to Nancy Pelosi.
As many in the chamber applauded Trump’s call for unity, Pelosi sat stone-faced.

She had a similar response during Trump’s first speech to Congress last year.
Trump ran down a list of companies that have announced investments and job additions in the last several weeks.
“Since my election, Ford, Fiat Chrysler, General Motors, Sprint, Softbank, Lockheed, Intel, Walmart and many others have announced that they will invest billions and billions of dollars in the United States and create tens of thousands of new American jobs,” Trump said.
As many stood to applaud, Pelosi remained seated with a sour look on her face.
