Hoyer says 'sure' when asked if Trump can deliver SOTU, despite Pelosi's objections
Fox News ^ | January 22, 2019 50 min ago | Gregg Re

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer told Fox News' "Your World with Neil Cavuto" on Tuesday that he would have no objections to President Trump delivering a State of the Union address in the House of Representatives on Jan. 29, despite House speaker Nancy Pelosi's repeated threats that the traditional speech be delayed.

Hoyer, in an apparent break with Pelosi, seemingly had no problems with allowing Trump to speak.

"Sure," Hoyer responded, when asked if he'd be open to Trump speaking in person in the House for the State of the Union.

Maybe a mutiny at “Nancy’s House” will be in the near future.

Second time in as many weeks that Stupid Steny opened his mouth to contradict Nazi Pelosi.

I’m loving it.

Is this a medical issue?

Are the Dems up to hiding this medical issue like they did the medical issues on the 2016 campaign trail?

Are the Dems willing to recall the speaker if there is a medical issue regarding mental faculty?

Lately Hoyer is sounding somewhat sane.

Has Lindsey giving him some of the stuff he’s been drinking?

Don’t trust them.

They will pull some kind of a filthy democrat trick

Maybe something like not allowing live TV coverage.

Or shutting the lights or power off “accidentally”.

Or filling the seats up with bitter illegals who will wave flags and brandish anti-Trump posters while they scream and chant through the entire speech.

2nd time Hoyer has directly contradicted Her Majesty. This can’t be a coincidence...

Maybe a move afoot to pull Pelosi out and let Steny run things?

Trump oughta invite Steny to lunch and ask him if he’d like to be Speaker......instead of playing second fiddle to Piglosi.

I think that Hoyer is angling to unseat Nancy as Speaker of the House.

The State of the Union will be quite the spectacle one way or another.

I think a lot of the Dems are upset with Pelosi, whose ruthless ambition and personal power trip are getting a little hard to stomach. They are basically being forced to do nothing except dance attendance on her and stoke her ego, and while the Dems may have horrible projects and plans, I think they had hoped for something more than being Pelosi’s trained monkeys.

This may well be causing a breakup of the Democratic Party, into one part for whom massive immigration is the be-all, end-all of policy objectives, and another which isn’t willing to commit suicide on that hill.

Government employees are a very very significant Democratic constituency and Nancy has thrown them under the bus in favor of illegal aliens.

Politically this setup is not tenable for her and it was a crafty move by Trump to set this trap, knowing how predictable she would be.

Steny is an old line DemocRAT political player from Maryland. I have watched him for years. He knows how to play the game. I think he’s making a move.
