WASHINGTON — President Trump said he would look for alternative venues for his State of the Union address on Tuesday, appearing to capitulate after Speaker Nancy Pelosi again told him she would not invite him to deliver it at the House until the government reopens.
The decision came after a tit-for-tat between Mr. Trump and Ms. Pelosi over the State of the Union address.....It had concluded, at least by late afternoon, with Mr. Trump declaring at the White House, “The State of the Union has been canceled by Nancy Pelosi because she doesn’t want to hear the truth.”

Since the RAT party take the opportunity of holding political rallies at the funerals of their member RATS, it only stands to reason that President Trump should use the SOTU event as a giant MAGA rally. I'm for that.
Why does the NY Slimes include “appears to capitulate”? How is hosting the SOTU somewhere else capitulating? Or did they expect him to send in the troops and seize the House to make his speech?
..... Yup ..... And drive the following point home to Pelosi and other doubting Americans about a rarely ever but perhaps the most important subject in this debate about the Wall ..... It's called Criminal Recidivism ......
..... Most of the arrested criminal aliens in this country have re-entered across the border Multiple Times ..... .... Heck ..... Short of having a Firing Squad for offenders ..... The ONLY way to stop this Criminal Recidivism is to have an actual physical barrier to prevent their re-entry ......
Make it a people’s SOTU and invite the Congress to sit up front with all the “deplorables” filling the stadium. She won’t probably come, but there won’t be any of her moronic invites either.
The President needs to convene both houses of Congress and march right in to the House chamber. Dare that bitch to stop him.
Show her who’s boss.
Perhaps, Nancy can lead the crisis intervention delegation to Caracas.

She took the bait too.
He can make the address from the Senate chamber.
If Democrats don’t want to show up, its all on them.

Yep, that’s been my take on it too.
See Laz’s letter up thread, Trump should use it
PeLOUSY is behaving like a crazed, cornered Rat.
I don’t want this psycho anywhere near POTUS. SHE is the security threat.
She can do the same with that f'ing gavel too.
The House of Representatives is the peoples’ house, not Pelosirat’s personal property. Every day it seems to get closer to when the people are going to have to take the country back. They could start by seizing the House of Representatives.
I like that answer.
Trump can hold the SOTU anywhere he likes, except the floors of the House and the Senate and possibly the Supreme Court without permission of their leaders, but he can do it anywhere and at any time.
The House and the date are only a recent tradition. The Constitution says “ He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; he may, on extraordinary Occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them, ...
He should give the SOTU in San Diego with the loudspeaker aimed at Tijuana.
Or a little Voodoo doll that looks like her. He can laugh every once and awhile, turn around and stick a needle in it.
And Trump replied, “see you next Tuesday”
Hold it in The Senate with the Supreme Court invited. Don’t bother inviting House members. Senate chambers are too small to accommodate. Though the speech could be piped into the Capital Rotunda which has plenty of seating capacity.
First and most important, President Trump and VP Pence can not be together any more.
These people are too dangerous.
When having the state of the union leave an empty chair behind the President to represent Pelosi.
Ben Carson would be good to sit in the VP chair for the SOTU
SOTU in front of the gate at Nan’s winery, with a squadron of ICE agents.
