Pelosi: No wall money in U.S. border deal talks
Yahoo ^ | 1/31/19 | Yahoo/Reuters

Posted on 01/31/2019 10:16:39 AM PST by TangledUpInBlue

Democratic U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday said there would not be any money for President Donald Trump's border wall in the deal being worked out by a bipartisan negotiation team.

"There's not going to be any wall money in the legislation," she told reporters. The top Democrat in Congress said if Republicans have suggestions about adding more ports of entry or technologies, those kinds of things would be negotiable.

"It is not a negotiation for the president to say ... 'it doesn't matter what Congress says'," she said at a news conference.

"The president wants to have Congress be completely irrelevant in how we meet the needs of the American people? No, c'mon. Let them work their will. I'm an appropriator."

The Democrats and the DC establishment must have something that is obligating them to the Mexican drug and the DC establishment cartels. Are they all on the take for some of the millions of dollars the cartels use to buy politicians? It’s clear that they do not care about the American people nor our security. A sovereign America and the US Constitution is not in the NWO’s Agenda 21 plan.

“Democratic U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday said”

Only after a fashion - she couldn’t get the words out. It was like she was drunk or has really gone over the edge. I saw “IT” on FOX this morning and they really need to lock her up somewhere so she doesn’t hurt herself.

Dear Donald and Piss Poor Pathetic GOP,

Learn from Nancy. This is how one negotiates with one’s enemy.

Notice how she gives nothing and gets everything.

Learn, morons.

We lost the midterms because Pres. Trump failed to deal with vote fraud. There is only one way to save our country now. I wonder if the president will have the nerve and the courage to do it.

“The president wants to have Congress be completely irrelevant in how we meet the needs of the American people...”

I can’t think of anything MORE irrelevant, you senile old POS.
But, given the old bat’s pronouncement, Trump should just declare these negotiations dead, declare a national emergency and start building the wall tomorrow.

He should also say that the SECOND some dumb-ass liberal nobody in buckfutt U.S.A. declares that the President can’t protect the country because HE says so the border WILL be closed.

It’s PAST time to bring this to a head, Mr. President!

Some folks do not get it. First, the entire Democrat Party is out of control...there is no leadership at all. Pelosi & Schumer have shunned either of them giving a rebuttal to the POTUS, Trumo’s SOTU speech next Tuesday. They passed that task on to Democrat Governor Loser, Stacey “Fatty” Abrams who might be dining somewhat as she gives her speech. LMAO!!!

This SOTU will be something to see. The Democrats will go nutso at full speed in front of millions of American voters. Shucks they may abort and slaughter a nine month old child fresh out of the mother’s tummy. SAD!!! For Pelosi & Schumer....the game is over...The Trump Southern Border wall will be built.

Bottom line: The entire Democrat Party must be politically destroyed...it is no longer functional or sane..period.

Nancy’s own estate is surrounded by a wall. So is Meathead’s (that’s the nickname for a schizophrenic named Rob Reiner from his All in the Family days). So, Nancy’s not against walls for liberal politicians and celebrities to keep out riff-raff and criminals. Yes, walls are so medieval, but that’s the point: medieval technology works! They themselves practice it!

These people like Nancy and Meathead are not my countrymen. They are not worth defending. However, America and Americans are worth defending. From enemies both foreign and domestic.

The key is to frame the situation in such a way that Pelosi has to spend a lot of time explaining what the House is doing. The more time she spends in front of cameras, speaking extemporaneously - the more she exposes herself as a befuddled old lady. I think this requires the kind of political and media jujitsu that Trump understands. If he can position her so she defeats herself by exposing her intransigence and incompetence, he wins, even if he has to resort to an emergency proclamation.

Dear Donald and Piss Poor Pathetic GOP,

You're being too kind to GOP. It's Nancy in the House vs. President and GOP in the Senate and, so far, she's winning. I am thinking this is Trump's watershed or Waterloo moment. If Trump folds on the wall, he's may well be lame duck going into 2020.

Nazi Pelosi said she would negotiate after the government reopened. Is this what she calls “negotiating”? I hope Trump questions that at the SOTU...

The Almighty God has given us an Instruction Manual . . .all of life's answers are in it including why things are happening like they are. . . we shouldn't be surprised. Share this Scripture . . .

Romans 1:28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done.

“We won’t negotiate until the government is open....we still won’t negotiate now that it is open...methinks that at the end of the day, Crazy-Eyes Nancy and Smirky-Face Chucky will be less secure in their positions...

We’ll negotiate after Trump opens the government — yep, another lie from Pelosi and Schumer. They never had any intention to negotiate in good faith. That’s Democrats.

At this point, Trump has nothing to lose...nothing.

-Cancel the SOTU
-Close the borders..I mean really close them
-Take away her private Air Force
-Stop their pay during the shutdown

Yep.

They are playing hardball with him, and he doesn’t seem to realize it.

He’s going to be a one termer or less if he doesn’t get with it.

No one in Washington is on his side, and they never will be, so bend them over and starting giving it to them, Don, or they will do that to you.
