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.

Our President has balls the size of watermelons.
Ever single day he must rise and face a vast nest of snakes, traitors and wolves. He is singlehandedly fighting the whole deep state,
There will never be anything we can do that will be enough to thank Trump for what he has given the Republic. He is our greatest man since Washington, bar none
Why can’t we intercept the money that illegals send home to Mexico and use it to build a wall?
I am so stealing this from the Brits.
Exactly!
You’re right. A large number of of the American people believe that a government shutdown means the end of days. Mick Mulvaney will keep things going.
But this Wall is in my opinion, impeachment, 2020 all rolled into one. If Trump gets the wall the base is with him, and the dems and establishment GOP will not get rid of him until 2024..
Regardless of major concerns about alleged Democratic ballot box fraud in last election, Pelosi and Schumer have audacity to sing elections have consequences.
And speaking of elections, patriots need to support Pres. Trump in working with the states to enforce the 12th Amendment (12A) and Section 2 of the 14th Amendment (14A).
Enforcing 12A will put a stop to unconstitutional state winner-take-all electoral vote laws imo.
Excerpted from the 12th Amendment: "The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice-President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate [emphasis added]; "
Enforcing Section 2 of 14A will prevent undocumented Democrats from voting in federal elections imo, possibly swinging outcomes in favor of Democrats by doing so. Note that later amendments to the constitution have effectively changed how Sec. 2 is interpreted.
14th Amendment, Section 2. Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens [emphases added] twenty-one years of age in such State."
Patriots also need to support Trump in working with the states to require voters to present valid citizenship / photo ID cards before being allowed to vote, such cards scannable to facilitate Democratic ballot box officials with poor eyesight.
Also, off topic, patriots are encouraged to watch Dan Bonginos excellent 37 min video (associated book). The video helps to flesh out the alleged Mueller conspiracy against Pres. Trump.
Dan Bongino - Obama, Mueller and the Biggest Scam in American History (not office friendly)
Mrs al baby and iI would match that today
Agreed.
In the background is the bust of MLK that Trump was accused of having thrown out. Now a monument to fake news!
Just saw a replay of their *meeting*. I had no idea and am SO proud of PDJT making this live for all of us to see. Cracked me up to see Chuckie turn towards the camera several times. He was probably thinking that he hoped the camera got his good side!
And Old San Fran Nan still has a speakership vote to survive. This isn’t going to help that!
Trump will get the Wall, one way or the other. If it’s the other, God help the uniparty.
I believe that if we could really investigate, we would find that the vote counters handed over control, not the People.
Elections have consequences?
Only when Democrats win I guess.
My, oh my. Isn’t that an awesome optic....
Yes! Great idea.
I still think the wall is a bad idea. Saturating the border with landmines would be far more effective. Nothing says “keep out” quite like a landmine.
