    Its not a public event in Congress. Not just anyone shows up. Dont see why a psuedo sotu speech would be different. I'd imagine he could use the old reasonable time place and manner restrictions along with of course a national security argument as well to greatly limit access.

    You would never hear a Democrat yell in the House to the POTUS during a SOTU address "You Lie" as that idiot in the GOP did to Obama. Funny thing, when that happened, you all went here and praised him for doing that. LOL Hypocrisy much?

    I am not a lawyer, but I would think if he has already fulfilled his proscribed constitutional obligations by submitting it, this speech ceases to fulfill its formal public function when he presents it and he can tailor the invitation list accordingly.

    Opinions only need a link if they are not the opinion of the author of the material. original opinion based posts without statements of facts, won't have links. Being as I am the original author of the opinion expressed. There is nothing to link.

    Then it's crapola, thanks for playing. There is a board for that and it's not current events.

    The PF rules governing 'current events' postings govern the OP on which discussion is based, not subsequent posts in which discussion foments. Thanks for playing.

    So, he can excoriate the Democrats on national TV, if that's not what you want then have it in the House Chamber. I know Trump doesn't bow to the Democrats perceived superiority, it's why you hate him so much. But, try to keep a stiff upper lip ole boy.

    He already does that routinely. Its not interesting. Its not news worthy. Its his usual partisan rally speech. He could have excoriated Dems in the well of the House. He could have excoriated Dems elsewhere. Pelosi just limited these two options to just one. He will have to excoriate at a later time, or do it elsewhere.

    You can post crapola, it just reflects on you personally. Knock yourself out.

    Abe the outlaw Lincoln was excoriated. Look where Democrats managed to elevate him to.

    I would believe Trump could handle the same speech only done in the Senate.

    Curious that you do NOT apply the same standard to the ACTIONS of the GOP because if you did you would realize just how much REAL HARM they have caused and are still causing to We the People.
