Trump is right. Pelosi needs to stay and deal with the current issue, not depart on some damned junket. As CIC he can absolutely deny the use of USAF aircraft.
She is visiting a war zone in Afghanistan on government business...how is that a junket?
No, it's the opposite. Individual 1 is finding out he loses more support for his ridiculous antics and rhetoric every day. America ain't buying it anymore Donnie boy! Keep him accountable Nancy. https://twitter.com/NPR/status/1085857841024389120
It's more than this trip - any Congressional trip has been cancelled by the President. But all the senior White House staffers scheduled to attend the Economic Conference in Davos next week will still go. Elites gotta Elite.
A president acting this way is not a sign of winning.
Brilliant point ..... a REAL sign of WINNING is for the Queen of the Congress to break over 100 years of Tradition and Precedent and lock the doors of the US House against the President and forbid the State of the Union Address.

What does a 78 year old woman, who has trouble moving around, doing going to a war zone? At best, she's going to put lives in danger without cause or justification.
If you think that is going to happen (whether it should or not) you need to get your head examined. We can stop electing these adults that act like juveniles though.
the should is the key part. of course it won't happen, but it should

We've covered this several times, but apparently it's gone over your head.
House and Senate passed spending bill. Trump had asked for $1.6 billion for his wall and got it. Then he decided to go back on his word and vetoed the bill.
Government shutdown.
Pelosi was elected Speaker of the House and straightaway got bills passed bills in the House and on to the Senate.
McConnell refuses to even bring them up for a vote until he has Trump's solemn word, whatever that's worth, that he will sign.
Trump disrupted thousands of lives and McConnells allowing him to continue doing it.
I've not defended Trump in any manner. I've condemned Trump for this very thing. They did have an agreement until Trump got his chain pulled. This problem is far bigger than this one item.

She should stay home and work on a compromise to reopen the government. Actually she, among the other old folks, should retire and let some new blood lead.
