“Under no circumstances during a government shutdown will any government owned, rented, leased or chartered aircraft support any Congressional delegation, without the express written approval of the White House Chief of Staff," wrote Russell Vought, acting director of the Office of Management and Budget.
"Nor will any funds appropriated to the Executive Branch be used for any Congressional delegation travel expenses, without his express written approval,” Vought’s memo said.
You and I both know what was meant by commercial and it isn't a private charter of a jet. I checked on prices to get to reality and apparently the only cost is giving up being a democrat and embracing logic and common sense. You should book a flight quickly!
to even suggest he cancel the state of the Union was rude and totally off base in my opinion. No one is thrilled about the shut down, no one is exactly jumping with joy about how the two sides refuse to bend, especially the left side, but the State of the Union should go on as is the tradition.
BS.
The original tradition is a written report to Congress.
But when has Trump cared about tradition?
SOTU is political pageantry. It can wait until after the shutdown is over.
Or, as Pelosi has suggested, he can deliver it from the Oval Office. They can all watch it at home. Save on costs.
Or teleconference as the Congressional group is doing for their Afghanistan meetings.
I wonder how she gets back to the White House now.
Melania doesn't own a vineyard in CA does she? Stop being a moron, A woman like Melania Trump and feckless **** Nancy Pelosi aren't even of the same species.

Pelosi isn't in control here and neither are democrats. The President will do what he feels is best for the nation and you people will just have to deal with it.

Trump did own a Vineyard, he told us about it while he was praising nazis in Chancellorsville, but you're right.
One of them takes off their clothes and married for money, and has no other achievements to their name.
The other is a distinguished politician, who is in her second stint as Speaker of the House, and is 2nd in line to be President.
Definitely not comparable.
