Even if they’d shown up, there’d still be two empty chairs.

But of course. Once again for the umpteenth time, the Democrat accuses the Conservative for doing exactly what they were, when the Conservative wasn’t doing it at all.

Trump was merely outing the no-shows. Good for him.

You don’t like being outed Nancy, show up! Do your job. Your constituents have every right to expect you to show up when the heavy lifting is done.

Empty seats for empty, low energy corrupt people. They're losing the game badly.☺

Bad optics, but not for Trump, Nancy.
I thought the space between Ryan, the president and McConnell was also interesting and then, there was the statue of the lone bison fighting the wolves right square behind.

Publicity stunt no, Bully Pulpit yes.

Exactly right.

Schumer and Pelosi proved the point that President Trump tweeted about, that is, Democrats don’t care about a pro-America agenda.

They played right into his strategy and didn’t even know what hit them.

This man is brilliant.

"His empty chair photo opp showed he’s more interested in stunts than in addressing the needs of the American people."

This sow is going to shock everyone when she fails to take back the House AND again refuses to quit as Speaker.

she thinks it’s her patriotic duty to be the leader. This kind of delusion of granduer make her almost psychotic and it of touch with reality. Look at how she stumbles through press conferences. She’s the poster girl for term limits. The dems won’t dump her. look at all the idiotic pronouncements she has made. They puffed her up as a WOMAN leader and credited her with Obamacare and all their great achievements. They and we are stick with her.

Anyone ever fail to show up for a meeting with the illegal immigrant president? I thought so, the answer was no.

Scummer and Pelousy, what a pair.

She is being PAID to do a job, and part of the job is to SIT in that there chair. What;s the STUNT part of it, but she is just falling down on her assisgnments.

No, Naomi, it shows how petty demonrats are. Those empty chairs have made a huge impression on the voters. Further proof congresscritters are more interested in themselves than being on the job and doing their duty by their constituents.

That’s rich considering it’s from the person carrying the giant gavel when Obamacare became law
