Pelosi has a message for Trump: 'Nothing for the wall'

Speaker-designate Nancy Pelosi told NBC's "Today" show in an interview set to air Thursday that she will not provide President Donald Trump with the border wall funding he has demanded and shut down the government over.

Asked by NBC's Savannah Guthrie if she was willing to give up any money specifically for the border wall, Pelosi said "no."

"We can go through the back and forth," Pelosi said in a clip that aired on MSNBC on Wednesday. "No. How many more times can we say no? Nothing for the wall."

This is going to be entertaining.

Pelosi and the Dems are going all in on illegal immigration.

To do so, they have to throw blue collar workers and their African -American constituency under the bus

With President New Tone, Senator Reach Across the Aisle or the Happy Loser from Utah/ Malibu/ Mass this would not prevent ol’ San Fran Nan from having it both ways, but Trump is a master of the zero sum game so it’s not likely he is going to let her have it both ways.

Predict Trump is going to force me the Dems choose between Baby Mamas in the Hood and Mamacitas carrying anchor babies on the border.

Dems have cut a fat hog with stories Republicans are going to throw granny off the cliff.

If Trump is smart he is going to alert the Baby Mommas to the fact that Dems are going to steal their EBT cards and give them to the Mamacitas.

Trump is already getting the blue collars and Union types woke to the fact that the Dems already threw them under the bus 7 years ago and have been hiding the fact in hopes the working stiffs paying taxes that put them into the class of working poor Neo Serfs toiling to pay for the Democrats wealth redistribution and generous vote buying handouts to illegals, their new and improved protected class

I really like Pulisic, and hope he does really well, but it is a lot of money to pay for a young player who still has a lot to learn and prove. I think Chelsea is banking on this helping boost their brand in the US, and that they'll make a lot on jerseys etc.

Pelosi needs to learn what compromise means.

Pelosi needs to learn what FEAR is.

The fear of Americans like me who want to see RATS like her beaten to a pulp by the first American President in decades who has the balls to bring it on.

Pelosi needs to fear that her fellow RATS like Pocahontas will be saddled with anger directed at them for the criminality of the RATS wanting to keep our borders open to criminals and terrorists.

Only an idiot would say that walls don't work. An image of the wall around Hussein Obama's compound in Washington demonstrates the point.

Their strategy probably would have worked in the 1980s/1990s era. But since President Obama used the shut-down chatter a great deal, I think most folks got used to it. When you reach the end of February, and it’s still shut down, and several thousand DC employees haven’t been paid in two months...this whole strategy will collapse for Pelosi.

I think Trump’s whole gameplan is to get them to agree to a 1.5 billion dollar 2019 Wall plan, and to guarantee in 2020 a similar amount. I think if you dragged the Army Corps of Engineers into this talk, they’d say at best...they can do maybe 400 to 500 miles of quality fencing per year. Maybe commercial companies could promise a higher quantity.

Yep. Would like to see them ‘scoop up’ Pelosi as well (my poor attempt at trying to steer this thread back to its intended topic..).

ABC is fake news. Trump hasn’t shut the gov’t down. Democrats have.

"No. How many more times can we say no? Nothing for the wall."

How is that a tenable position, even among Democrats?

The fact that Pelosi is taking such a bold position can only mean that Democrats know that it's politically safe to do so.

If that's the case, then something like half the country is fully on board with the invasion, and actively WANT our country destroyed.

The billions for the wall are peanuts when looking at the whole budget. What kinds of goodies does Pelosi approve?

Everyone knows three bil is squat in the larger scheme, everyone also knows Pelosi and the dems won’t authorize it precisely for political reasons not cost, and since a majority want ‘the wall’, nazi and her goons will find themselves further on the wrong side of public opinion as it drags on.

It is the Constitutional duty of Congress to put a funding bill on the President’s desk.

SOMEHOW... don’t let this woman tell Mr. President what he can and cannot do!

She hates him... and can’t wait...

She is detested by many... and this is the zenith for her... she will give him nothing and she will glory in her fame. Somehow, President Trump... find a way to outsmart this woman!

Lots of things Trump can do. Such as,,,, 1) Speak to the People on National TV—get the people in the loop.
2) Veto everything that comes from Nancy P. House until the wall is funded.
3)Use Excutive power to put pressure on Democrat Cities and programs.
4) Ask the people to take to the streets to protest the shut down. In Yellow Vests! Trump could join them.
5) He should demand Sacuary cities and states stop this of face arrest.

She and Chucky where so terrified by DJT that their meeting lasted until they were about to hear the facts on the border arrests , they ran out of the meeting - elapsed time estimate: 5 minutes.

Keep it up Pelosifer, every time you speak in public about, “ No Wall,” you create tens of thousands of Trump supporters.

Soon you are about to discover a very surprising truth.

” Never-Never Land does not get to run the country!”
