Brietbart ^ | 25 Jan 2019 | Tony Lee

Posted on 01/25/2019 4:10:55 PM PST by SmokingJoe

After President Donald Trump agreed on Friday to open the government for three weeks, Rep. Karen Bass (D-CA), the chair of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC), said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) should just give the State of the Union address “since she’s obviously the one running the country.”

Congressmember Bass ✔ @RepKarenBass .@SpeakerPelosi should give the State of the Union since she's obviously the one running the country.

Pelosi cancelled Tuesday’s State of the Union address and said on Friday, after Trump decided to open the government on Democrats’ terms, that she and Trump still have to “discuss a mutually agreeable date.”

Trump did this to himself.

All those promises and assurances he would not yield, would not cave, would not give in.

Then he did.

We don't. Check what the constitution says about SOTU. President Trump can give the SOTU anywhere he pleases. President Trump did nor have to cave on SOTU.

She isn’t going to let us keep our country, so she might as well tell us why.

1. SOTU

Sidebar issue in the grand scheme of things. Trump can simply give the Speaker post-it notes, to meet the Constitutional requirement.

2. Shutdown.

Only gives back pay to federal employees. Foreign aid, money to Planned Parenthood, etc. are still cut off.

Come on guys. Knock off the negative crap.

Negative thinking from our side destroys morale worse than real victories by the enemy.

Keep in mind, this is not a game. We are in CWII for real, even if the shooting hasn't started (yet).

There are a lot of lurkers at FR and they listen to us. Every time someone on FR whines or complains or shares their negative thinking, it spreads out across Conservative America.

Keep that in mind when you speak. Is that what you want?

President Trump decided to postpone because Pelosi said to do so. He didn't have to cave. He can give SOTU wherever he wants and just send a copy of the speech to Pelosi.

President Trump repeatedly swore not to end the shutdown unless he got border wall funding only to fold like a cheap suit.
