Donald Trump's negotiating session with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer spiraled wildly out of control on Tuesday, with the politicians viciously tearing into the president in plain view of reporters.
Pelosi informed him that his border wall wouldn't pass in the House of Representatives, where Republicans hold a majority of seats, if it came for a vote.

If Trump had a gofundme page set up for the wall, and everyone that wanted it gave 150 bucks, the wall could be built. I would donate, my Mom would donate so thats 300 bucks right there
Genius...Wall Bonds! I’ll buy some!
Pelosi and Schumer explained, “Death to America!”
There must be a way to de-fund the slush fund that Congress uses to put out sexual abuse fires. List the names of those that steal taxpayer money to fund their deviant behavior. No more booze on Pelosi’s airplane unless she pays for it. Same with fuel and crew. No tickey no laundry. Investigat her husband’s corrupt business with the government.
Play hardball Donald.
In a nut shell:
Schner: "You said you'd shut down the government if you don't get what you want.
Trump: "You know what if You want to put that on me..ok.. if you don't give me the wall I will shut down the government."
PELOSI: “I don’t think you should have a debate in front of the press."
Reminded me of the House of Commons.
I cannot spare this man, he fights.
A patriot burns his wall bonds in public!
Time to work a deal in private with Mexico’s new President. Give them something significant so they will pay for the wall.
Chuck Schumer was accused of sexual harassment. The public deserves to know if taxpayers hushed up his accusers.
IOW, Republicans are kind and diplomatic.
I was listening to Michael Berry (radio host) yesterday and he thinks, if the Democrats try impeachment on the basis of Trump paying off Sleazy Daniels and the other one, Trump will expose that hypocrisy by releasing the names of the Congressional harassers. That presumes he either has them or will get them.
I hope he does.
Office of President Elect Obama threw a temper tantrum in Bush’s oval office demanding Bush pass his emergency spending requests and then spent years blaming runaway spending on Bush doing it
I voted for Trump, and I would again, but didn’t he promise that Mexico was going to pay for the wall?
Not a bad idea. I would also consider raising some money with pay for view cage matches between Trump and Schumer and Nadler and Schiff.
No wall. Build a shooting range facing South. Open 24/7.

Wonder what Pence is thinking.
