Great. He should send his address to Congress in video form, complete with graphics like a PragerU video, and post it on YouTube.

excellent idea

If it is in the Senate it would be Vice President Pence and Mitch McDonnell behind him I think

That’s an advantage right there

Oh, please, DJT, Mr President, PLEASE schedule it for a nice HUGE arena. “Since the Speaker couldn’t seem to be bothered to hold this in the House chambers, I took it upon myself to bring the State of the Union to the people instead, as the Speaker has forgotten that is whom we answer to. Should she or her party wish to attend, tickets are available at Ticketmaster...”

To be an official SOTU, it requires a joint session and/or a written SOTU. I am suggesting a large rally, presenting the SOTU to the people with a written version sent afterwards to congress. He is not the first president to be denied entry to the house. It serves no further purpose to try to hand it to her in person. It is not about her, the presentation is to both houses of congress, whether written or spoken. Geo Washington was so badly treated by congress when he went before them to present the first SOTU that he left and refused to ever go back. He sent written SOTU to them. It is not a yearly requirement nor is it required to be given in person.

Hope no one has already mentioned this, but perhaps we should send her a bowl of strawberries.

Why would this be a constitutional crisis?

“Plan a rally somewhere in middle America and do it there. Emphasize that this is the part of the country the left despises and is hurt the most by Washington.”

I like the Idea of holding it in Moscow.

Nancy should be banned from the Senate office building and the White house.

Only Congress can vote to deny courts jurisdiction of cases, not the president. That is how it should be.

You can’t read. Pelosi does have the power to prevent anyone from entering the House. Also, the president does not have the power to fire the Sergeant at Arms. He is not a dictator nor does he control everything that moves in DC. Congress is an equal branch of government with the President. You may not like it but this is the truth.

Can you prove your statement? I’m waiting and I doubt you will respond.

>>> Speaker Pelosi has informed the House Sergeant at Arms that no executive branch official will be permitted entry into the Capitol building.

What about parts of the building that Senate/Senators inhibit? She can block their normal business, too?

Just think of the visual.

President Trump ready to give his SOTU, confronted and blocked by House Sergeant at Arms on the steps of the Capitol building, while speaker Pelosi & Co. presumably are somewhere hiding inside the building.

Is she inept? No, never mind.
