Pelosi is not the Captain of the ship. Stop being cocky.

1+0=orange man bad

0+0= Pelosi thinking she can stop a President. (that isn't a Bush)

As there's no requirement for how or when a State of the Union speech is delivered I could well see the President delivering it live from the Oval Office while a paper copy is delivered to Congress. If he does this he shouldn't release any information on it so that the Dems have to scramble to respond.


I think democrats would be ok with this idea.

Nancy would be furious.


This.

Or tweet the whole thing.

Would be hilarious.

Calling the leadership of one half of one third of the government "captain of the ship" is rather dense.


That isn't what I said, and you know it.

I was referring to the topic of this thread. Trump's State of the Union on the House Floor later this month. That is it.

Next time, I'll lay out every single condition to my statement so you can understand.

The Democrats have a gaping wound, and Trump has a big box of salt. That’s it in a nut shell. The Democrats are on the ropes. They’re just trying to avoid the killshot… Trump will make ground meat out of them on national TV.

frick her... She doesn’t want to give Trump the platform to blame the Dems for the shutdown and pitch his case for the wall.

Like I’ve said numerous times. He will have the Cali officers dead wife, child, and brother in attendance and hammer his death home as a prime example for the wall.

Perhaps someone should explain to Nancy why there is a SOU address.

Yep. An endless stream of families who lost someone to an illegal immigrant in front of a national audience with standing ovations.

Especially with another caravan forming.

Dems see themselves losing this battle if it gets to SOTU and the caravan reaches the border. Time is not their friend.

Honestly, he should just fax it over to Speaker Pelosi. Then, deliver a televised address from the East Room, with only Pence, his family, and honored guests in attendance. Takes away the left's platform to scream things, storm out, or otherwise act like high school students.

She can in fact keep him from speaking to the House. Trump should simply send a written State of the Union to the House and deliver a speech to the Senate.

They want a written form delivered to cnn so they can spin it and dissect that shite in real time.
The SOTU is always delivered in written form the day before if not several days before the POTUS gives the now traditional oral report.

So, yet again the dysfunctional and hypocritical Dems strike. But but but, muh traditions! Picking and choosing which traditions are/not followed... as it serves Dem goals.

President Trump needs to stand in the chambers and deliver this address in front of the people who despise him. The optics of it needs to be seen by the people. She's trying to prevent the democrats from being seen by the public as the bitter, hateful entity they are.

I'm guessing this wasn't directed to my comment?

They obviously want to stop and despise Trump but I would bet they are also fighting over which democrat(s) give the SOTU response? Beto from the dental chair? Kennedy with snot on his lip? Ocasio commie with her crazy eyes? Nance and cryin Chuck?
