‘See you at the polls’: Trump and Pelosi have it out
AP via Tampa Bay Times ^ | Oct 17 2019 | AP

He said she’s a “third-grade” politician. She said he’s having a meltdown.

And with that President Donald Trump and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi chalked up the latest explosive meeting that ended abruptly with a walkout at the White House.

It's a familiar ritual, with Trump and congressional leaders meeting on official business, only to see the session devolve into colorful, name-calling commentary that's a new kind of addition to the history books. But this time, against the backdrop of the fast-moving impeachment inquiry, Pelosi arrived not just as the leader of the opposing party, but as the speaker who could determine Trump's political future.

Nice to see a Republican with a spine for a change. Bush-McCain-Romney-Ryan-Dole and the rest of the GOP-E would of been publicly french kissing her butt

Pelosi arrived...as the speaker who could determine Trump’s political future.


That may be a tad bit of an overstatement of her power. I’m sure she can get people in San Francisco to go against him.

Pelosi will NOT determine Trumps political future. In order, that will be determined by the Senate and then the voting public.

It makes no difference at this point whether the House votes to impeach or not, except to the loony, rabid base.

It’s not that McCain and Romney and bush lacked the spine to fight. It’s that they didn’t disagree with the Dems, so there was no need to fight

She is already helping to determine his future, and his future looks bright!

I’d say it was more of a case of them NOT having the spine to fight, so they therefore agreed with the Dems on many (most) issues.

Trump is unique in that he absolutely relishes in getting down into the mud to fight the slime monsters.

Although not as worthy of the passing of say, Metzenbaum, but certainly a contender for top ten.

The “House” isn’t consumed with impeachment talks. There was no vote of the House, just an edict from a political leader. It is strictly a function of democrats in the House. This is a democrat impeachment...nothing more.

..fast-moving impeachment inquiry...


Love how AP writes this as if it’s a thing. You might almost think an “impeachment inquiry” is some kind of formally recognized process rather than an ad-hoc PR invention by the Rats.

“ Trump is unique in that he absolutely relishes in getting down into the mud to fight the slime monsters.”

Yes, he’s the first president who’s in the WWF (pro wrestling) hall of fame. Not a bad background for the kind of strategy and showmanship needed to KO the Pelosi Dems!

The Almighty Lord God, The Master of Human Fate, has spoken and he has removed Elijah Cummings to Satan, at a relatively young age. If I were Pelosi, Sanders, Schiff, Nadler, Schumer etc., I would clearly remember the truthful saying “Whatever goes around, Comes around”!!! Our America Loving, Lord rules....Thank God!!!

Trump is doing exactly as he should: treating evil nutjobs like evil nutjobs.

Reasonable people are a lot more sympathetic to Trump than a fruitcake wacko like Pelosi.

Just think, guys. . . how would you like to be married to a Bat-$h1+ crazy, lying manipulator like Pelosi? It would be a complete nightmare, even worse than her being Speaker.

According to Schumer, he then called her "a third-rate politician."

Wrong, she's a third-rate person.

Personally I never like to be pleased people have passed away. The fact that he is no longer holding a house rep. position however.....

I believe the meeting was about Syria, Kurds Turkey etc. i think the chief of the joint chiefs his was positioned to the right of trump.

If that was the meeting, his comment was out of place and as rude a usual. Of course many here get an orgasms no matter what he does.

When you make those kind of comments you give the person you address them to the right to do anything in response.

Is this Ass. Press article another group writing project?

1. Trump said “third-rate” not “third-grade”.

2. “explosive meeting”? Only the D’rats “exploded”. Drama queen writers.

3. Only the D’rats walked out. The R’s sat and watched.
