House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Blocks President Trump Entry into Capitol Building

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Blocks President Trump Entry into Capitol Building – Confirms State of Union Speech Cancellation…

It looks like Speaker of The House Nancy Pelosi has no intention of allowing the House chamber to be used for a State of the Union address.

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

Earlier Fox News reported Pelosi cancelled a walkthrough last week, and a second request for reconsideration from the White House is expected to meet the same fate. The House Speaker controls who is, and who is not, permitted entry to the House floor. Until Speaker Pelosi calls for a vote to support a joint session of congress, the President cannot enter the chamber.

Deputy White House Press Secretary Hogan Gidley discusses the status of the current shutdown negotiations and the likelihood a SOU address will have to take place outside Washington DC.

She do can do what she wants. Trump has options and he doesn’t need Pelosi’s permission to give the SOTU.

The Senate can extend an invitation.

President Trump can deliver the SOTU from anywhere he pleases, he just needs to report to Congress, and that could be making a very nice speech from, say Idaho, and emailing the youtube url to congress. (Or a written transcript of same).

One thing for certain, wherever President Trump delivers the speech, the most watched SOTU in history.

President Trump is going to give that SOTU address, come hell or high water. I suspect he never wanted to do it in the Capitol at all.

So, Nancy wants to bar the entry of someone. That seems rather ironic.

Yes, along with the irony of her group of wholesale vote thieves being called the "Democratic" party.

I believe she’s too far gone with dementia to realize what she’s doing.

The donations from her base will go through the roof.
