This has to be one of the funniest political tweets that I've seen in a while.

Listening to Trump snorting the whole time is always fun too.

Especially to a ski trip in Davos in the Swiss Alps.

Constitution guarantees an uninterrupted PayDay for Congress and POTUS, during a Shutdown.

All qualified government employees receive uninterrupted healthcare insurance benefits during a shutdown.

So, that IS funny.

I used to teach childbirth, based loosely on the Lamaze method. It would be fun to teach it now, showing Donald Trump closing his mouth, breathing deeply into his nose the way he does, that's almost like childbirth breathing.

Dude. Just breathe normally.

I think.

Trump denied that she would be able to travel to Egypt, and the article states that Egypt was not actually on the itinerary. Egypt only appears twice in that article.

Far as I can see.
Here's the actual tweet from Pelosi's rep:
https://twitter.com/Drew_Hammill/sta...97663819055106

It (was) to be a 7 day junket.

stating "This weekend visit to Afghanistan did not include a stop in Egypt" still leaves it open that Monday thru Thursday were reserved for Egypt.

More than 70 members of Congress reject pay during shutdown
McConnel does not need a paycheck. His wife inherited some serious $$$$.

He also collects SS.
