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.

President Trump is doing what he was elected to do...by the way, Nancy, did you tear down the wall around your house and take the front door off your house? If not, why not?

Sometimes it’s best to walk away from a bad deal. You can return later, for a better deal.

President Trump was supposed to grovel and beg on his knees and then Nancy would grab a single bill from her pocketbook and wave it around. "This is my final offer."

Instead, the President walked out.

Could you imagine if a group of people went to Nancy Pelosi’s mansion, and start protesting, “Nancy, tear down this wall!”

That is exactly what needs to happen to all of the invasion supporters.

No debate. Just fund the damn wall or GTFO of the way.

If she thinks that was a setup, wait until the next meeting when he has cameras.

If Trump announced he will pay $2.5 billion of his own money, they’d start filing suits to stop him. Big time proof that it’s not about the money to the Dems.

Schumer is on tape speaking in the Senate saying “Mr. President, no wall”.

Yep, by the end of tomorrow I believe we’ll see a national emergency declaration from President Trump if the RATs don’t come around, I’m pretty sure they won’t.

“She is going to get another nip/tuck to ensure it never happens again.”

Not likely! As someone posted the other day, that dimple in her chin is her navel. So if she has another “procedure” she will have to start shaving that area!

My local “conservative” radio talk show host told me at lunch today that this is a contest to see who will blink first, and that if he and his producer went to DC, they could talk sense into “both sides”.
