Pelosi was caught in yet another lie with her demand Trump cancel his SOTU address (or simply submit it in writing). She claimed it was for safety - and that Homeland Security was worried. The lie was laid bare and she is now having to change her tune.
We know the real reason - she doesn’t want Trump to have the attention of the entire nation and both houses of the legislative branch as a “captive audience” to have him beat her and her party over the head with FACTS. She and her ilk have proven over-and-over that they don’t care about facts. They reject report after report from every agency. They turn a blind eye to the actual people with real names who have been (and continue to be) victimized by the open borders.
Yes - the is TRUMP’s shutdown (I prefer the term SHOWDOWN), because he said as much in his surprise press-covered, Oval Office meeting with Pelosi and Schumer - HE WOULD shut the government down if need be. But he would do it IF Congress failed to do their job. So it is Trump’s shutdown - CAUSED by Pelosi and the Democrats.
And the SOTU address would be a massive opportunity for the President to hammer home the truth - with names, faces, and the reality of the situation. And considering the “response” she and her Senator counterpart gave after the last speech - they might be better off just remaining quiet!
Bump!
