Pelosi rejects Trump request for SOTU

[imprimis]

I know there is no constitutional requirement to give the state of the union via a speech to the combined chambers. I don't think there is a requirement to give it each year. Doesn't it say from 'time to time'?

It also says, "...he may, on extraordinary Occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them,..."

They have several recesses coming up in the near future, maybe he'll just keep them in session until they act.

Pelosi supporters enjoy it when Trump is an asshole or when Pelosi is an asshole?

Either one, I could probably agree with.

When Pelosi is as well.

 

[Bitter Creek]

I wonder if the Dems will still do a response, even with the invite pulled.

Trump doesn’t give a shit about 800,000 unpaid workers.
He only gives a shit that Pelosi denied him his international stage to spew his lunacy.

He can just submit it in writing like a majority of Presidents before him have done.

 

[TPOKE]

There is no Constitutional requirement that he give the SOTU in a speech in the Capitol before the Joint Houses of Congress.

That didn’t start until Woodrow Wilson.

Trump can give his SOTU in writing to Congress just like all Presidents did for the first century of the US’s existence.

He can give it broadcasting from Mir-a-Lago or wherever else he’d like.

She’s keeping him from giving it in the venue he wants, but she ain’t...can’t....keep him from giving it.

I don't think he gives a shit where he gives the speech. It's all boiling down to who can make who look bad. Personally, I think Pelosi is making a mistake.

Maybe Trump will simply walk in while the House is in session and hand deliver a copy of his SOTU address to her and then walk to The Well of the House and say, "While I'm here I have a few words to say to C-SPAN and those watching."

If I were a liberal piece of trash with wrong opinions I wouldn’t want trump taking up the airwaves with common sense either.

Trump making an ass out himself and telling some more BS lies would be fun.
Shutting down the gov't for his wall pledge is just plain stupid.

Are you in the exploitation of undocumented workers camp or are you pro adding criminals to our nation?

Made my position on the wall, immigration and workers here several times from experience. Keep up.
Enjoy your banter though. Thought provocative.

Latest Trump statement appears to be he is looking at alternate sites for SOTU speech.

Damn that is a complement. Trump is the narcissist.

I guess we have both of those things in common then.

Which is nice.

Gawd, another happy ending just on the verge of you two flirting with fruit-loops.

Harry and I actually have a lot in common which concerns both of us for different reasons.

I'm the executive janitor and I'm not going to touch this. Or either of you or the toilets you use for that matter. Make it official in my job description. I shall treat you both like you have gonaherpesyphilaids chlamydiahepatitis tuberculosis at all times.
