President Donald Trump Tuesday said he was the person who canceled the deal to pass coronavirus legislation in excess of $2 trillion after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi included "a lot of things" that had nothing to do with people who have been put out of work because of closures over the spreading coronavirus epidemic.
"I canceled the deal," he said in a Fox News virtual town hall. "I said, 'I'm not going to send that deal.' Nancy Pelosi came and put a lot of things in the deal that had nothing to do with the workers, that has to do with an agenda they've been trying to get passed for ten years."
Trump said he told Vice President Mike Pence and several other key Republicans that there was "no way" he would sign the deal.
"We almost had a deal the day before," said Trump about an agreement between the Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
"It was really a good, solid deal," said Trump. "All (of a) sudden they start throwing all the little green new deal stuff in. The board rooms, what they look like. 'We want clean energy, we want all this stuff. Let's stop drilling oil.' They had things that were terrible. Windmills all over the place, all sorts of credits for windmills. To kill the breeze and ruin the real estate, right? A lot of problems."

“You are in WAAAAAAAAAAAY over your head on Art of the Deal here, Nancy babe.”
She has shone that people can suffer unless she getsher way.
Remember the harm she inflicted over the wall.
Bush would have signed it. He was a huge spender.
“We almost had a deal the day before,” said Trump about an agreement between the Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

Schumer just wanted Repubs to THINK they had a deal. But then he and Nancy sucker punched the Repubs and sent them reeling. It was a nasty, but clever tactic that seems to have worked for them.
Am so sorry I missed the Town Hall meeting today.
Would have loved to have heard our President make these comments!
Thank you, Mr. President, for always doing the right thing!
I thought I heard Fox is repeating it but I could be wrong. Check the Fox News site on the internet.
Also, I think it should be on you tube as well.
“ISOLEP” is PELOSI spelled backwards.
Haha, love it. Best president ever. WINNING!! Kick that dumb youknowwhat in the teeth, Mr. President.
I’ve called both Senators offices each day and let them have it.
I also called my Pelosi stooge “representative” His aide idiotically started arguing with me about climate change. What a dork.
Will do - thanks!
What a bunch of inept a-holes. Well, what else would any of them care about except climate change at this time. They have no brains, no soul, no common sense, no morals, or conscience. Their motto on life is: “Me, myself and I.”
Yea, this guy floored me. He asked if I believed in climate change and was silent for a bit when I said No.
Absolutely amazing.
I DON’T THINK NAN’S GOVERNOR IS GOING TO LIKE THE LOSS OF ALL THAT HELP.
Turns out, she’s not only NOT a good legislator, but also, she is a dumb ______!!!!!
Opinions are like...leaves on a tree.
I just found it!!!
Thanks anyway

The most powerful tool in negotiations is “NO”. Checkmate Nancy, you lose.
Actually there is one better. Went to meeting, asked other company for $100,000 to design a financing program for them. Guy became an mule in the hot Georgia sun. I said let me think about it. I did, raised it to $250,000. Guy can’t I couldn’t do that. I said I could. Walked out. My two sales guys came out to get me. One said, I saw it and don’t believe it. He agreed to the $250,000. When you take something from the seller that you have, he wants it. He will paid for it. Still laugh about it.
Good for you! Thats the spirit! You have shown you have good principles.
Some things are beneath us and just not worth it. Id rather pick crap with the chickens than fold my principles to anyone.
Relief will come soon you will be fine.
