Trump Concedes: State of the Union is Cancelled Because Pelosi is 'Afraid of the Truth'

Hours after insisting in a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) that he planned to deliver the State of the Union address in the House chamber as per tradition, President Donald Trump has totally capitulated announcing that the speech has been canceled.
The president broke the news during a White House pool spray on Wednesday. The state of the union speech has been canceled by Nancy Pelosi because she doesnt want to hear the truth, Trump said. She doesnt want the American public to hear whats going on. And shes afraid of the truth.
Shortly after receiving Trumps letter, Pelosi replied that by saying that the House will not open their chamber to the president on Jan. 29. Trump blamed the super-left Democrats for the speakers position on the topic.
I hope they know what theyre doing for their party, Trump said. So far they havent.

And then of course no details or any sort of reference to what he was going to be winning.
Maybe he meant 'whining'? He 'will whine so much....'
I don't know - maybe public school would have been better for him.

(6,275 posts)Nancy didn't cancel the speech. Repeat: Nancy did not cancel the speech.
She withdrew the invitation for him to deliver it in the House Chamber. That's two totally different things.
And she acted totally within her power.
He is free to deliver the speech anywhere else he wants or to do it on paper, and she even said so.
Pass the popcorn please: the media will have a field day with this. Cue the talking heads.

(8,865 posts)Keep after Trump, but begin an even bigger campaign against McConnell and all the millions
he has received as Senate Majority Leader. McConnell is in charge of Trump's actions,
and everyone should be pounded daily with his 3-6 million dollars from Russian Oligarchs.
Keep trashing on McConnell and if he gets crushed, trumps main enforcer is bye bye.......
Keep tying in McConnell and his wife to receiving China money also................

Even if the terrorist thinks he's a genius at slogans.
It hasn't sunk in to him yet, his only "success" was by the grace of Russian money that needed to be laundered after the fall of the Soviet Union.
His branding and negotiating skills are laughable by real players in those areas.

So did the child cancel the SOTU? For real? I think it's great. I would feel compelled to listen to it and I'm glad I don't have to sit there and swallow all of his bullshit.

(28,270 posts)The whole damn GOP is riding the tRump tiger and can't get off at this point even though Dump gave the House to democrats on a sliver platter and the presidency and Senate is next on the menu!
The Trump cult/fox/hate radio is destroying the GOP, its nuts that the idiots are so gutless to even try to stop them.
If we survive the shitgibbon, the Democratic party can transform this country and make it a great place for regular citizens again.

I got a union job with fantastic pay and benefits. Best job I ever had in my whole life!
Then Bush Jr was installed and everything went to shit for the average American to this day.
When we get total dem control of the govt again we need to be as ruthless for the working class as the damn republicans are for the 1%!
The Democratic party is the ONLY hope for freedom, democracy and rule of law in this country, that's for damn sure!

(12,552 posts)State of the Union Address. She just said he'd have to use a different venue. Trump is obligated by the Constitution to give the State of the Union, be it on paper or in a location of his choosing that doesn't require approval by the Speaker. Perhaps he might consider giving it at a McDonalds. He can call it the McDonald Trump State of the Union.

The banker I dealt with didn't want to come and say the maggot is an idiot but he kind of agreed that the Economy was going into the shitter because of twitler. I told him it feels like 1982 when interest started going up. I was moving my IRA money to a cd where I'd get better interest. Interestingly the longest term offered was 11 months at 2 3/4%. I told him I used to sell muni bonds with 13% coupon rates. He was concerned that it would hurt the housing market.
