    No doubt. I wonder if Trump will mention them and point it out for all to see.

    Personally, I think Pelosi should allow Trump to speak, given what he accomplishes by speaking.

    (No guns, voovoozelas, or TelePrompters allowed in m'lady's chambre, of course.)

    After two years of a Republican-controlled Congress refusing to give Trump $5.7 billion for his wall that he had repeatedly promised Mexico would pay for and that most Americans do not want, he has had a pissysnit.

    But of course you would allow Trump to speak in the Congress, for you can probably can guess what’s Trump’s State of the Union address ratings will be and how many Americans will watch it.

    And the cameras there will not have the chance to swing away from him and whoever else will be there applauding him at his SOTU address. I wonder what’ Trump has in store for all of us?

    Bad, bad miscalculation on the part of old bat Pelosi.

    You are mistaken

    Trump can call the congress inonsession and make them listen to the speech he gives in the house chamber

    But never has a house speaker ever tried to prevent a president from giving the SOTU so this is going to a new three ring circus for America to deal with

    He can not compel congress to listen to his speech. You’re making things up.


    Welcome to 2019. Glad the Republicans gave Pelosi the idea.

    If trump or any president calls a special session he can compel congress to be there

    nothing like this has ever happened before

    So we are all flying blind to a certain extent

    But you more than me

    He really cannot, congress is a separate branch of government that the president is not supposed to have control over (except his puppet master mitch).

    Pelosi could have him removed by the Sargent at Arms which would be an interesting sight to behold.

    He does not own government as much as some of y’all wish he did.
