The major broadcast networks all agreed to air Trump’s Tuesday evening Oval Office address to the nation after initially considering snubbing the President.

President Trump confirmed Monday afternoon he will address the nation Tuesday evening from the Oval Office on the national security crisis at the southern border.

The White House asked broadcast networks to carve out at least eight minutes at 9 PM ET Tuesday night where President Trump may declare a national emergency.

On Monday evening, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) lashed out at President Trump and demanded he reopen the government in a joint statement.

Someone needs to tell the demoncrats this is not the State Of The Union so no response time should be given them

Like the Democrats need to demand time from all the networks! They’ll have to interrupt their regularly-scheduled infomercials for the Democratic party, like Madame Secretary or Murphy Brown in order to make it happen! But they will... twist their arm.

This is getting out of control. This is the DEMS new ploy, publicly diminish Trumps power and make it appear they are forced to take control of an out of control President.

Even if Trump loses in 2020 the U S Senate will still be Republican majority.

They're not loyal but they definitely are Opposition.

As in Oppositional Defiant Disorder.

It seems that a statement about a national emergency, does not deserve an opposition response. What do the Democrats propose, to undermine and destroy America? Is that the argument they want to make to America?

"On Monday evening, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) feebly lashed out at President Trump and hysterically demanded he reopen the government in a rambling, incoherent joint statement."

Yep. That’s their pathetic stance.

Kick ‘em in the knees, with facts, every time they try this buulshiite.

This is a State of Emergency announcement, not a flipping SOTU. They get no rebuttal.

Just read that CNN wants to put his speech on a time delay so they can fact check it first and give the Democrats a chance to forge their response

The Dem response is already written.

“No wall because we hate Trump, and FU America”

Equal time for controlling one half of one of the three branches of government?

Bingo.

It’s a good plan as long as they never physically come home and have to face their opposition.

Not necessarily, 34 US Senate seats are up for election in 2020, with Republicans defending in 22 and the Democraps defending only 12. So while the 2018 situation was tougher for the Democraps in the Senate, in 2020 they could have a chance to rebound unless the Republicans show some fortitude and help bring MAGA along.

However, most of the R. seats should be solid so long as there is not some total meltdown... such as could happen if the RINOs continue to waver in the face of MSM and Democrap onslaughts.

I hope it’s potty-mouth from Michigan, that way her entire speech will be bleeped out.

Does the GOP get equal time to make up for 30 minutes of network “news” every day?

Earlier prediction:

“The MSM have to broadcast it, then hope their A Team of demonic pedophile hacks can climb all over each other in an orgy of lies to effectively dissuade their pea brained audience.”

The left is so predictable.
