Trump, in Super Bowl Sunday interview, slams 'very rigid' Pelosi, reveals troops' mission in Iraq
Fox News ^ | 03 FEB 2019 | Greg Re

In a wide-ranging, three-part interview set to broadcast Sunday, President Trump revealed that U.S. troops will remain in Iraq to "watch Iran," and charged that Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is "very bad for our country" and "doesn't mind human trafficking" at the border, according to an advance transcript of his remarks.

Speaking ahead of Super Bowl LIII at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Ga., Trump also told CBS News' "Face the Nation" that the NFL's ratings have been "terrific" lately because the players "haven't been kneeling" during the national anthem -- and that "a lot of people in the NFL have been calling and thanking me" for spearheading the passage of a sweeping, bipartisan criminal justice reform bill last year.

A social media campaign has urged the Super Bowl halftime performers, including the pop band Maroon 5, to kneel on-stage.

The first portion of CBS News' interview is set to air at 10:30 a.m. ET.

The president's comments offered a possible preview of his upcoming State of the Union address in the House of Representatives, which is now scheduled for Feb. 5 after it was delayed amid a spat between the White House and Pelosi during the partial federal government shutdown.

The government is currently funded through Feb. 15, and Trump has strongly suggested that he may call a national emergency if Congress does not agree to provide some financial backing for his proposed wall along the southern border.

"You know, there have been plenty national emergencies called," Trump told anchor Margaret Brennan. "And this really is an invasion of our country by human traffickers." (“I think there’s a good chance we’ll have to do that," Trump said last week, referring to declaring a national emergency.)

Yes, but did he specifically say that Nancy is a “Commie Rat Buzzard?”

From the article: ...a spat

Now a struggle over national security funds that is so deeply divided that it shuts down a large part of the government and suspends paychecks for hundreds of thousands of non-security related employees...is called a spat.

Excuse me, but that sissy word ought to be reserved for disputes at the level of disagreeing over whether house plants are being given too much water.

Did that interview only last 7 minutes, or did I fall asleep during part of it. I’m glad now I recorded the Fact the Nation interview.

If walls are immoral then, Nancy Pelosi - TEAR DOWN THAT WALL on the southern border of your state. She wouldn’t dare suggest such a thing, further proving how hypocritical she is. Time to retire Nancy.
