Nancy Pelosi calls Trump walkout 'a set-up'
The Washington Times ^ | January 10, 2019 | Stephen Dinan

Posted on 01/10/2019 9:10:01 AM PST by jazusamo

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi accused President Trump Thursday of a set-up in their meeting a day earlier, when the president walked out after she told him she’ll never allow him funding for his border wall.

Mrs. Pelosi also questioned the president’s motives, saying he’s negotiating from a position of weakness.

“I don’t even know if the president wants the wall. He wants a debate on the wall,” she said.

The California Democrat has said she would allow a single dollar to go to the wall if it ended the shutdown but has said the president’s current $5.7 billion request is a no-go.

Mrs. Pelosi also said the border fight is not about national security.

“It really isn’t,” she said.

Pelosi whining about her being set up is hilarious, she's dumber than dirt.

Wow. That powerful argument is going to be difficult to refute.

True. It's about visceral hatred for Donald Trump.

Call his bluff. Offer him half of what he's asking and see if he walks out then.

Contacted our President today. Perhaps you can take just a minute and contact him, too.

“WHEN -— because I think we are way past IF -— you have to declare a National Emergency, please, please, please use the opportunity to build the whole wall. Declare an ongoing emergency until you can finish everything WE need to secure our southern border for once and for ALL. WE are counting on you to get it done. You have the means, and WE are behind you 100%”

It was a set up. And she was the turkey who willingly walked into that set up.

Dumber than a box of rocks.

as usual Dems inadvertently broadcast what they would do when they project like this. what is curious is that they still have no self-awareness that they are doing it.

This is how I read this.
The leaks that have been flowing to the DNC since 2002 are now plugged and they are not getting the inside working plans.
What changed?
McCain and FISA phone taps has been discontinued.

“Politicians” in both the House and Senate have promised Border Security for years -— way back to the Reagan “amnesty for security deal” that the lying cheating Democrats reneged on. Trump is NOT a politician -— he KEEPS his campaign promises. The swamp has no idea how to deal with that because they have never seen it before!!!

But, she will cut your head off and you won’t even know about it. Let’s see. She says ain’t no way she’s funding a wall. Period. So, tell me again why PDJT needed to sit there after that proclamation?

“True. It’s about visceral hatred for Donald Trump.”

It’s about whatever the five Billionaires that paid for almost half of Democrat 2018 campaign spending want. They OWN the Democratic Party now.

Uh...Nancy, Your "No" was the "set-up".

Your inability to forecast the result, proves once again, YOU are the putz!

“She's not dumb. She has just met someone who is smarter, more powerful and more resourceful and its really pi$$ed her off.”

To your point, this is likely to almost always be the case when a person successful in the private sector, who has actually had a real job, interacts with people like Pelosi, Schumer, and their fellow travelers in public office.
