Imagine the nuclear meltdown of the leftists and the crooked MSM if John Boehner had canceled one of Obama's SOTU addresses.




Pelosi seems to be doing everything she can to insure that Trump will be re-elected in 2020. Trump is playing her like a fiddle.

Trump's approval numbers are tanking with this shut down. Someone is getting played all right, but it's not Pelosi.

Please quote the Federal law, regulation, or United States Code (USC) that prevents the President from delivering his SOTU from any venue he chooses. I know it is not in the Constitution!

Approval numbers? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Didn't you tell us he didn't stand a chance against Hillary because the crooked pollsters said his approval was so low?


But given the short memory I give you this. Go look at the approval numbers for congress. Get back to me. Trump is easily winning this one.

Also -- there is nothing that says the State of the Union has to be on the 29th.

I think that Trump should have chosen to move the location or method of his 2019 State of the Union, rather than having Pelosi be the one to decide how it should have been done.

She did give him that opening to take control of it.

He gave it back to her ---

State of the Union -- hmm -- it's a mess -- what can he say that he hasn't already said.

Anyways -- they must have a back up plan already. They must have a contingency.
~Nancy set the date when she issued the invitation on January 3, 2019
~Nancy tried to take back the invitation due to "Security issues".
~Homeland Security, Capitol Police and Secret Service exposed that fairy tale.
~Nancy then went to " no State of the Union while we have a Shutdown ...
Totally ignoring that the Shutdown of 25% of the Federal Government had been going on for weeks while she vacationed in Hawaii and then in Puerto Rico.
Nancy refused to allow the President of the United States to walk through the House with Capitol Police.

She finally had to answer the Big Question - are you going to make US History and PERSONALLY Deny the President the State of the Union Speech in the US House (often called the People's House) - Never before in our entire History has this happened.

Nancy said NO .... He can't come to the US House! - this is NOT a decision made by House Leadership.
This is a decision made by ONE woman on behalf of the entire US House of Representatives.

President Trump anticipated this and has other plans .... he will give a Speech somewhere.
President Trump will also insist on Nancy holding to her letter -- he will still Give a State of the Union in the US House when the shutdown is over .... but he will NOT give in to her and she knows that by now.
It's exactly why Nancy is forcing her Democrats to vote AGAINST paychecks for Exempted Workers who are working.

Aww. Nancy Pelosi said no to your demagogue. So sad.

Get used to it. There's a new Speaker in the House and she's not a coward like her predecessor was. This is just the opening salvo.

Workers would get their paychecks if Trump would open the government. Dems have passed numerous bills to do just that.

Dems and Reps passed a bill they agreed to weeks ago. Trump was on board, then Ann Coulter called and he walked away. This is his to own. Even he says so.

‘Art Of The Deal’ Co-Author Predicts Donald Trump May End Shutdown For 1 Vain Reason
Donald Trump’s Art of the Deal co-author has suggested one reason why the president may soon find a way to end the ongoing partial government shutdown.

Tony Schwartz tweeted Tuesday he thought it could happen because Trump “desperately wants to give the State of the Union to Congress” on Jan. 29.

“It’s always, always about his vanity,” Schwartz added.
Well now ..... we found out today that the "expert" was wrong - didn't we.
He forced her hand - he will give a Speech somewhere and he will later give the State of the Union Speech ..... it's a 2-fer.

Well, now he can have another one of his tent revival rallies which, hopefully, the networks will continue to refuse to air.
