IMHO, their embarrassing Chuck and Nancy “shared podium” response to his speech a while back didn’t work for them they want they thought it would. They are scared of Trump getting unfettered access without controlling the narrative.

Two thousand armed patriots escorting him safely would do the trick.

She can’t stop him.

He has Secret Service.

They are armed with all manner of wonderful toys.

Nancy Pelosi is working to ensure that this will be the most watched SOTU speech in history.

“Trump should just have the report printed and downloadable.”

He should just shoot a group text to the House critters: “The union is fine.”

Democrats know they can’t afford to have Nazi’s face directly behind Trump

It will be a reminder of what old white privilege combined with maniacal hatred and insanity actually looks like

It will be fantastic fodder for ridicule on the interwebs

The point is that Nancy doesn’t want Trump to have the stage because Trump is fantastic under the lights. No Trump needs to give a televised address to the country.

I just called Pelosi’s Washington office and left the following message: “I’m not a constituent of Mrs. Pelosi’s but am an American taxpayer, and I’d like to remind her that the Capitol Building, both Houses of Congress, and everything in it, including her sorry ass, all belong to the American people...that she doesn’t own the building, and is only there on a temporary basis.”

I want to see Pelosi's uncomfortable grimace standing behind the president as he reminds America that the shutdown is wholly due to the intransigence of the Democrats.

True, but I would be just as happy to see an empty chair there, offered but not taken.

I would also like to see the SOTU held on time, but at a different location like the Capitol Rotunda, and the networks can contrast the crowd at the SOTU with Nancy sitting (or not present) in an EMPTY HOR.

It’s an opportunity. Do the State of the Union in front of 20,000-40,000 fans of President Trump in a secured arena.

Make Pelosi and Schumer eat this as the obstructionists that they are.

[Democrats are lowlife scum, pure and simple.]

There’s no reason to insult scum by comparing it to Democrats.

Presidential Authority to Call a Special Session of Congress

However, White House officials have been working on a backup plan to have him give the speech somewhere else if Democrats don’t let him do it in the traditional forum, the House chamber, on Tuesday.

I’d like the long version: “The union is fine and the DNC is a bunch of far Left wing douchebags. Thank you.”

I think he is conning her into a face off and she’s going to lose.

A Face Off?

Look. Nancy has paid TENS OF THOUSANDS of DOLLARS for that plastic Botoxed face. It ain’t coming off in a thousand years.

(But I knew what you meant.)

Nasty Nazi Nan can reopen the government right now. Just give the President of the United States the money to build the wall. It’s not rocket science and it is easy to understand even if you are doing “medical” marijuana for “recreational” purposes.

A company of Marines in full battle gear would suffice.
