I am unclear on what will be done on the SotU? Will Trump have a rally in Iowa and mail it to Nanzi?

He didn’t know from day 1 AND these people are damn hard to get rid of!!! He can however start putting them in positions they don’t like!!!

Hey, Trump Girl! I hope you're doing well.

Trump was talking about the Swamp already during the election. One reason we voted for him is because he shared with us our mistrust of the bureaucracy.

It's not a novel idea. Clinton "cleaned house" when he assumed office. As did Obama. Notice I did not mention GWB, unfortunately. That's why they continually makes gains while we, at best, tread water until the next Dem wave.

OK, if he didn't know from Day 1, we're no longer at Day 1. We are three years in now! And given what's transpired the past three years, he definitely knows now, doesn't he?

And yet, just to name a couple, people like Vindman and the "whistleblower" are still there, even today!

When will he say "You're fired!" to the hundreds of Obama moles still burrowed in the Executive Branch who are sabotaging him (and us!) every single day?

OK, so we’re both disturbed.

I’m asking why are they still there?

Any idea? I’m dumbfounded.

That’s is correct he cannot simply postpone because It’s by invitation to the house. If he postpones Pelosi will not issue an invitation and no Network coverage in a different venue. You may think so what but the SOTU is a pretty big deal to a POTUS and he wants prime time coverage.

“Well, guess what. It’s a good bet that their lawmakers are even worse.”

Maybe. But, in their case, that will be as good as their lawmakers have ever been. Exact opposite for us...

I am thinking that Trump doesn’t want to make anymore waves until this impeachment is OVER!!! If he can’t fire them he can certainly move them to VERY UNFAVORABLE positions!!! One of them resigned today can’t remember the name but the name was Ukrainian!!!

McConnell said issue was with Collins that she wanted it like Clinton impeachment where Senators would have time to talk on the floor.

WTF, she was voting no anyways. I suspect Murkowski said she would vote yes if they gave into Collins.

Once again between those two and the DEMS, the DEMS get their way.

Sickening.

McConnell wanted to finish tonight or tomorrow with no discussions.

He can’t change it unless Pelosi says ok as he has to be invited to the House to speak.

Where are you getting that? The President has the duty to report on the state of the union. He cold put it in writing and not even give a speech. It has nothing to do with being “invited”. That is nothing but a tradition. The President could also simply give the address from the oval office and at a time totally decided by him.

McConnell’s right - wrap this puppy up. Not one speech is going to sway a vote. If they need campaign talking points for back home, make ‘em outside of Congress.

With the addition of Ms. Lamar Alexander, we now have the Four Sisters of Duplicity to control within the Republican Party.

I think the SOTU is going to be so epic that the vote to acquit the following day will be more lopsided than it otherwise would have been.

Yes, and it will make them look smaller than they already look.
