Donald Trump Jr. spoke out against Pelosi’s attempt to delay the speech. In a statement issued to the Daily Caller Wednesday, Don Jr. said Pelosi is terrified his father will get another chance to speak unfiltered about the Democrat Party’s obstruction.

He also said the house speaker’s party becomes more of a political loser as the president continues to shine a spotlight on the human tragedies from its open border policies.


I HAVE AN IDEA----WORK WITH THE PRESIDENT ON THE WALL AND THE GOVERNMENT WILL BE OPENED.
How about McConnell get out of the way and let Congress vote on a bill to open the government? That would work.

Trump's still being seen as the major problem. Plus, he is proudly owning this baby according to his own words.

Thanks Nancy, no matter how Trump plays this he wins.

He can give the address in the oval with the angel families and end it with pictures of Dems partying down in Puerto Rico getting their tan on.

What would be funny is if they did invite him, then all walked out about 10 minutes into the speech, just like he did at the White House.

Incorrect. The US Constitution gives the President the power to call a joint session of congress.

All while doing her best to ensure that violent criminals have free access to this nation.

Thing is, SOTU is an address to the PEOPLE of the United States. Doing so in front of the congressional windbags is a courtesy. Just have it televised direct from the oval office and bypass the children and their temper tantrums.
Oh Lord. So much misinformation. In case you didn't notice, Nancy was at capitol hill today. Did you not see her talking to the press? Nobody wants violent criminals having free access to this nation. Nobody wants open borders, but if you only listen to Trump I guess you wouldn't know that.

Actually the SOTU is held at the invitation of the House and Senate. Trump can go someplace else to hold his rally.

Yeah, his approval ratings went through the roof the last time he talked from the Oval Office. Nah, people know who's the problem. That's why the majority are blaming him. But he's proud to own the shutdown, so there is that.

Don Jr.? That doofus who has terminal foot in mouth disease and gets owned on Twitter constantly for his insipid posts? Oh yeah, I'll bet Pelosi --- and that's Madame Speaker Pelosi to you ---- is really quaking in her boots. Not.

An "unfiltered" Trump Senior does more damage to himself with his words.

She, and the rest of the Dims, can't stand the thought of American citizens hearing the truth, without the MSM to lie and distort it to fit their agenda.
The truth of the government shutdown is that federal workers are hurting and the economy will take a hit if it continues. The truth is the federal workers are saying they can only go on until next Friday, two missed checks. Many are using food banks. Luckily companies such as some banks are waving overdraft fees or loan payments and most cell phone providers are waving late fees for those effected. However items like gasoline they will need to pay on credit. I haven't heard credit card companies allowing federal workers to delay payments for no cost. The shutdown is projected to cost the economy five billion dollars.

Stock market has been going up since it started.


Government workers are always free to join the private sector and help produce wealth for the USA instead of leeching from it.

Unlike the Obama shutdown, where Obama tried to hurt as many people as possible, with what gets shutdown and what doesn't, Trump on the otherhand, has done everything to let the people be people and the least painful and only government employees in the cross-hairs.
