Trump's letter to Pelosi on State of the Union address
President Donald Trump ^ | January 23, 2019 | President Donald Trump

Posted on 01/23/2019 9:49:56 AM PST by Reno89519

Dear Madam Speaker:

Thank you for your letter of January 3, 2019, sent to me after the long Shutdown began, inviting me to address the Nation on January 29th as to the State of the Union. As you know, I had already accepted your kind invitation, however, I then received another letter from you dated January 16th, 2019, wherein you expressed concerns regarding security during the State of the Union Address due to the Shutdown. Even prior to asking, I was contacted by the Department of Homeland Security and the United States Secret Service to explain that there would be absolutely no problem regarding security with respect to the event. They have since confirmed this publicly.

Accordingly, there are no security concerns regarding the State of the Union Address. Therefore, I will be honoring your invitation, and fulfilling my Constitutional duty, to deliver important information to the people and Congress of the United States of America regarding the State of our Union.

I look forward to seeing you on the evening on January 29th in the Chamber of the House of Representatives. It would be so very sad for our Country if the State of the Union were not delivered on time, on schedule, and very importantly, on location!

Sincerely,

Donald J. Trump

Ah, now the ball is in her court. Does she welcome him or bar the door?

There is an article discussing this but I think President Trump's letter says everything that is needed.

Reminds me of a cat playing with a moribund mouse.

Another win for President Trump. Of course, this was a “gimme,” since Nanzi was such an idiot about this.

He wins if she and the Dems show up, because then they (and especially she) will look like they caved.

He wins if she doesn’t - because then she (properly) looks very petty and childish.

Meanwhile, the clock is ticking and the Dems are accomplishing NOTHING.

All things considered, this is great news.

Watch Pelosi wait until next Monday night to disinvite - to get back at President Trump for pulling her plane at the last minute.

I thought I read that Puhlozzy has directed the Sargent-at-Arms to not allow POTUS (may re-election be upon him) into the House Chamber.

Was that fake news? (it all zooms by so quickly...)

“I admire your concern with security for yourself and the congressional body.”
“It’s a shame you don’t have the same concern for the Country as a whole”

I thought that a barrier to entry was immoral. Nancy said that it was...

Pretty sure Trump has a plan B, and betting he hopes she forces him to implement it.

He’s a little too tepid & wishy-washy for me at times, but he’ll have to do.
