Nancy Pelosi disinvites Trump for his State of the Union Address

Tweet

Trump wanted a government shutdown--that he was going to be proud to do--so he got a government shutdown. We are on day 25 now I believe. The Democrats aren't budging on their refusal to fund his stupid, ineffective wall and the big orange baby won't give up the idea because he has to placate his red state base. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi pulled a power move today and basically dis-invited Trump from doing the State of the Union Address. She said in her letter that ,since the Homeland Security and Secret Service were not being funded due to the shutdown, they could not properly prepare for or ensure the safety of everyone during the SOTU event. She said that he was could either issue an update on the country's situation in writing (allowed by the Constitution) or it could be postponed to a later date. CHECKMATE! The one thing that Trump loves more than anything is public adulation. Knowing that he won't be able to stand in front of both houses of Congress and get his standing ovations and claps and be seen on so many channels on TV must be KILLING him tonight. I'm, frankly, SHOCKED that he hasn't lashed out at Pelosi today. Maybe he thinks he can still show up and deliver his address? (P.S. He can't.) Maybe he is too busy eating the leftover fast food. Perhaps tomorrow morning he will start attacking Speaker Pelosi at 6 am. But he has been awfully quiet tonight.
