Nancy Pelosi to Trump: I’m Not Funding the Wall Even After the Government is Re-Opened

Trump doesn’t know how to deal with the word NO especially coming from a woman. Got to love it!

I'm looking forward to Maxine Waters starting in on his tax returns and other financial shenanigans!

She has his balls in a vise grip. The thing she said today about how he assumes gov't workers who aren't being paid "can just ask their father for some money." Keep it up, Nancy!

She refused to even lie to him. She must be supremely confident.

r3: I love when Democrats behave like that.

Trump claims to have a lot of money - let him build the wall if he wants it so bad!

Go Nancy!!

So can we assume she wants to push him to do this national emergency bullshit?

Tubby must have become unglued when he read this morning that Chuck & Nancy's rebuttal got higher ratings than his speech

I just wanna go back to work!! Hurry up Pelosi!

I think it's a foregone conclusion that he does the "National Emergency" stunt, he is instantly sued and it immediately goes into the courts, and then they reopen the gov't "while the courts are deciding" and he gets to "save face" and play victim and martyr, except that act is increasingly looking like what it is, which is WEAK. The Manafort revelations are very damaging. The Dems have barely taken control of the House, new investigations from Schiff, Cummings, Nadler, haven't even befun. Jerry Nadler will happily subpoena Whitaker, tomorrow if he tries to fuck around. GAME OVER

*begun (but they will be fun)

R8, seriously? I didn't watch any of it last night. Just saw on Twitter that he failed. So after all the networks hyped it and aired it, I'm glad his ratings were in the toilet. I hope the networks stop this shit or I'm cutting them off. I know which news programs I trust and care about and that's it. I'm not messing with the brainwashing bullshit of Trump and the distorted ways he is covered. I'm particularly pissed off at the way the media, all of them, have been framing this entire situation. I don't see nearly enough coverage of the fact that Trump has been sitting on funds in the Department of Homeland Security for two damned years. His party had control of both houses of Congress. Where's the fucking wall? I want the media to go down to the borders and show that the crisis is all bullshit. And most of all I want them to stop portraying this as if it's some contest between Pelosi and Trump. Start talking about the fact that the Democrats support border security, but since this is 2019, there are a lot of technological ways they can achieve that without a wall? The coverage has been so superficial and distorted I dread what awaits us once election season begins.

Amen, r12!

r12 has stated her fucking boundaries!

[QUOTE]With a 29.3/47 in metered markets results on CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox News Channel and MSNBC, Pelosi and fellow Democrat and Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer’s live rebuttal topped Trump’s Oval Office speech on the government shutdown and his demand for a wall on the southern border. Across the seven nets and down 4 from the opposition, the “temper tantrum” accused POTUS pulled in a 28.1/45 rating in the overnight metrics in the 9 – 9:15 PM ET time period.

[QUOTE]That may be the very first time the usual afterthought of an opposition party response has beaten a sitting President’s address to the nation.

President Fatsquatch is really angry now.

This is exactly the kind of thing that makes Daddy very angry. He was swinging his golf clubs indoors again, which is not okay, while he had Kid Rock on speaker phone. He wants Kid to bring his dogs back to the WH so they can rip down the curtains in the Blue Room again

Where’s Mexico? I was promised repeatedly that they would pay for it!

It is pure insanity that EVERY GAWDDAMNED tv talking head doesn't ask EVERY Rethuglican WHY if Trump wants a wall so bad he didn't fund it while the GOP controlled every part of government for the last two years! He's bringing it up NOW???

Reporters need to just keep badgering that fat fuck Sarah Huckabee Sanders, "WHEN is MEXICO paying for the wall like Trump said five billion times? WHEN?"

I imagine Drumpf so mad , raiding his special locked cupboard in the White House kitchen stuffing Doritos and m & m’s in his mouth .... his fingers and face becoming more and more orange ... as he trudges up the staircase leaving a trail of Dorito crumbs and dried fecal matter shedding from his boxer shorts ..... how can it be????

You go girl ! Fentanyl (and Botox) for everyone ! No more borders ever! (except at your house, lets not get crazy)

R20 You're so descriptive ! How wonderful that you can fantasize about Trump's reaction to la belle Pelosi! Can you also imagine Michael Denice's thoughts as he was hit crossing the street in Milford MA, and dragged 100 yards to his death by a drunk driver who should have been home in Ecuador ? Imagine that ! #Imagine

Is that what was on Tucker Carlson last night, R22?

Oh that's easy, R22. FF for you.

R21/R22 = why are you on a liberal site?

R22 won’t be happy until the US is completely devoid of humans. Because that’s the real problem. Not immigrants. It’s all humans. I don’t suppose anyone thinks that it’s a disgrace that Michael Denice was hit by an immigrant, but would be perfectly okay if he was hit by a citizen. No, of course not. The problem is humanity. Let’s get rid of all of them.

[R27] why don't you open your house up to those HUMANS as you seem to like virtue signaling so much?

It's so funny how Reactionaires like R28 think that treating human beings with kindness and compassion is "virtue signaling" and not...like a virtue? Like the implicit meaning in that is that they know...just KNOW that we are as paranoid and angry and self-centered and racist as they are but we put on this fake window dressing of kindness. Maybe we aren't like you. Maybe you're bad.

[R29]triggered yet still refuses to open up his/her precious property to house those poor HUMANS. Let them all in but never in my property. Such virtue.

Any guesses as to how long before air travel becomes hazardous, then impossible?

Opps, wrong thread.

Is it true that the president can't travel during a government shutdown? I guess at least we don't have to pay for his golf trips to Florida and the motherfucker (and his family?) has to stay in Washington.

What happens to the government employees that are on unpaid vacation (not the ones that still have to work without pay). Do they also get their money after the government reopens? What about all the people who can't afford this and probably got another job? Do they actually have to return to their jobs?

R33, yes, the President can travel. That budget is unaffected by this shutdown. The government employees who are furloughed are not guaranteed to be paid when they return. That requires action by Congress (which, to date, they have always done).

Nothing in the current situation requires that people continue to work for the federal government. Some of them will undoubtedly quit and find employment elsewhere. The longer this continues, the more likely is that this will happen. Even those supposedly required to work (unpaid) can quit and, again, some will do so.

[quote] R28: [[R27]] why don't you open your house up to those HUMANS as you seem to like virtue signaling so much?

Interesting. R29 has it just right.

And R28, I am perfectly okay with opening my home to immigrants. My home is the USA, and there is plenty of room to spare.

A steel slat border wall can be cut with a saw according to Homeland Security tests. Oh dear.

Trump's own words at a commencement speech come back to haunt him. It's about WALLS. Of course, he would just deny he said them. Question: who the fuck would ask him to speak at their school? Were they desperate?

R22. How about the Sandy Hook parents? Or families of any of the following gun massacres carried out by Americans:: Sutherland Springs, Durango, Columbine, San Bernardino, Las Vegas, Pittsburgh, Orlando, etc.

But keep throwing out your very small numbers fed to you by Faux News to try to obscure the fact that racist Deplorables like you don’t want more brown people in the US.

The Dem Tidal Wave occurred during the midterms SPECIFICALLY to stop Trump's stupid policies. The Dems better remember that!

Trump now says he never meant Mexico would pay directly for the wall.

R40. And his Deplorables are too fucking stupid to remember chanting “MEXICO!” when the Orange Idiot asked crowds who is paying for the wall at his campaign rallies full of the white trash, teethless racists who support him. That’s the level of idiocy we are dealing with - the Deplorables really are cult members who have been brainwashed by Faux News and Dump.

It is a cult. My sister is in it. Her husband has to have every TV on in the house at all times, and they must be on Fox. It seems very strange to me. Anyway, because their “news” is so filtered, they really have no idea that they’re hearing bullshit.

In all seriousness, how can anyone be enthusiastic about and interested in politics, and not realize that Trump is undermining the most basic of American values? That he has an in-American relationship with Putin? That he is a “fucking moron”, as his staff keeps repeating, and a habitual liar? That there is a reason why hundreds of Republican Party leaders oppose him; many of whom have left the party because of?

R42 - don’t they leave the house or walk by newsstands? The latest lie about Mexico not paying for the wall is said by him and directly contradicts a hallmark of his campaign.

I think they know he’s a con man and grifter but he validates their racism and ignorance. I’m thankful every day that my entire family despises the man - not sure I could have a relationship with anyone in his cult.

R43, well, all politicians lie.

Every press conference with tRump, Sanders and any of the Republicans MUST persist in reminding them that Mexico is paying for the wall, as promised.

R38 Brilliant argument. We have nuts and criminals in America who kill people, so let's open the floodgates and let more in. Such a simple solution. Remind me which university you took your degree in Rhetoric, I want to congratulate the faculty on a job well done.

The goddamn caravan that flooded the gates didn’t even get in. Illegal immigration is at an all-time low because of the improvement in border security, including an increase in border patrol agents and additional fencing. So your little “let’s open the floodgates” remark is nothing more than a strawman. Nobody is calling for a decrease in border security or to cut the border patrol’s budget or to dismantle the fencing we already have.

See, that story is not being told well enough, R47. The media is not giving enough attention to the fact that Trump already has funds left unspent, and that there are a lot of things we have to do to improve border security not wasting money on a wall that will be obsolete before it is ever finished.

R43, well, that’s just politics.

So the dems (Nancy and Chuck) say Trump pounded the desk and the republicans say that didn't happen. So tired of knowing that we're being lied to by someone.

Humpty Dumpty will never get his wall.

R50. I Just assume that the truth is the opposite of whatever Dump says. I have no doubt he pounded the desk. Or that he said that Mexico would pay for the wall many times.

R59, fuck-all. Lying is part of the Republican brand. It’s not “someone”, it’s the same people who have been lying to us for years.

There us no doubt that fat Donnie not only banged his fists on the desk, he stomped his tiny feet, just like the petulant, incontinant toddler he is.

Only 100 of 1100 miles of the TexMex border is owned by the government today.

R55 - yes and we know what that means: the BIG OLE' GOVERNMENT is going to take that land right off those Texas cowboys. Oh, they're gonna love that. And if he takes the money from the disaster fund, Florida will be pissed too along with California, Puerto Rico and Texas (oh double whammy). Maybe there's hope after all for states like Texas and Florida to go blue.

Nancy really should have said that she’s “not paying for the [italic] fucking [/italic] wall”, like the Mexican President said.

Give her another few days and she will.

Tohono O'odham Reservation in on the border of Southwest Arizona. They are not open to having their land, given by the US government by treaty, taken from them. Again.

Attempts to undercut Boss Pelosi will not succeed.

[quote]Wow, Boss Pelosi ain’t giving Trump an inch.

And Trump can use every extra inch he can get.

Next we need to adopt a footing with Russia that recognizes that we are already at war. Then we can start hanging collaborators.

[quote]And Trump can use every extra inch he can get.

Not around the waist he can't.

If the cult can’t figure out Trump is lying about the wall they should figure it out by Isis taking responsibility for the latest bombing. We did not win the battle with Isis.

Nancy wins.

SHE HAS PLAYED IT BEAUTIFULLY. FAT ASS DADDY KNOWS WHO IS MAMA IS, AND SHE AIN'T HAVING ANY OF IT. GOD, DOES IT MAKE ME PROUD THAT A WOMAN MADE HIM ASSUME THE POSITION. NOW SHE NEEDS TO RAP HIS NETHER REGIONS TO GET HIS HEAD ON STRAIGHT ABOUT LGBTQ.

[quote]Boss Pelosi ain’t giving Trump an inch.

She shouldn't. Fuck that wall. Fuck it right in its wall ass.

I'm glad Pelosi is Speaker. Could you imagine if one of the newbies took this position?

I think Dump should suggest a new solution to "the problem" by offering to give Texas, New Mexico and Arizona back to Mexico. Macron and Trudeau can split Louisiana. Spain can have Florida back. It would really halve "the problem". Then, we just need to find European countries willing to invade The Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and most of Oklahoma.

Nancy showed that she has more balls than most of her male colleagues.

Go Nancy! Open borders for all!

"The Wikipedia list of caves in the United States just received edits..."

Would love to know how Paul Ryan feels watching Nancy in action.

Anyone who thinks she should agree to fund that wall, is very foolish. Trump is a lying, grifting monster, no one should give in to him. Trump is just trying to hurt our country. He is an agent for Putin.

R71 so funny.

R76 Paul Ryan doesn't have half the balls Nancy has.

Trump was publicly bitch slapped by Pelosi, good for her.

I've got many relatives in CO who voted Trump and believed the Wall and that Mexico would pay for it.

Ted Roosevelt said: "Speak softly and carry a big stick, you will go far." That's Pelosi's style, too.

So if he doesn't behave, she's gonna chase him down Pennsylvania Avenue beating him over the head with her big stick.

Trump's beating himself with the stick.

Paul Ryan never cared...he never had a character or a conscience. Ryan is a pile of shit who probably laundered money for Putin. That is why he ran away and is taking cover...I hope his children hate him.

Nan for the win. He's not used to dealing with women that aren't stupid and/or whores.

But have you noticed there is pretty much not one Republican who will stand up to the degenerate? What does that say about men who are Republicans? They are worthless, which is what my mother called my alcoholic father.

My dream 5AM indictment roundup: McConnell, Ryan, Bannon, Jr., Ivanka, Kushner, and Eric.

WTF are the REPUBLICANS smoking

[quote]In the face of 37 indictments, the President's continued actions to undermine the Special Counsel investigation raises the questions: what does Putin have on the President, politically, personally or financially? —Nancy Pelosi

You go, girlfriend!

R88, I would love to see sniveling Nunes get SOMETHING.

Did somebody post this?

The wall, and now the a ericsn presidency, is a sham

Pelosi exposed the Republicunts for what they are: a cult of angry white people who have been getting a free pass for their mediocraty for 200 years. Every middle aged white man in a pair of boot cut Affliction jeans is white hot angry about their legacy card being taken away. Its hysterical to watch!

Im curious to see if Trump's next press conference is standing in the Rose Garden, because Pelosi fucked him so hard, I don't think he can sit down for a few weeks.

Team Pelosi! fuck yes.

Much like "Lyin Hillary" and the other names Trump has repeated over and over, we need a name for Trump that gets entered into he lexicon of political discourse. Anyone? I suggest:

Trump the Grifter Putinessca Baboon Cunt

Too long. Didn’t Steven Colbert call him Putin’s cock pocket once?

Stephen Colbert, sorry. ^^

I presume this is meant to be satirical, but Trump killed satire when he was elected:

R84 The Republican leadership has taken substantial amounts of Russian money via the NRA.

Hopefully he will be impeached by Memorial Day.

[quote]Hopefully he will be impeached by Memorial Day

Why not TOday?

Because everyone in the GOP is a traitor, R101.

I’d like to see Jason Chaffetz get tangled in Mueller’s web.
