Pelosi gets praised by that man?

[irisblue]

Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) Tweeted:
I can get Nancy Pelosi as many votes as she wants in order for her to be Speaker of the House. She deserves this victory, she has earned it - but there are those in her party who are trying to take it away. She will win! @TomReedCongress

The hell is this?

1. An attempt to sow discord. He's betting that the more he seems to "support" Nancy Pelosi,

the easier it’ll be to get a critical mass of us to turn against her. Simply because we loathe and distrust him. He’s trying to sow doubt. And discord. Remember: trump is The Great Divider.

DON’T FALL FOR IT, DEMS!!!

[TheBlackAdder]

21. Yes. Because Trump falls for bullshit redirections, he thinks that Dems will do the same thing.

[hlthe2b]

2. "the hell is this?" -- his clumsy attempt to manipulate the new Majority party into dumping Pelosi

Obviously.

I have faith that few Dems would take it seriously, but it is not the only questionable effort to do so.

7. Yep.

It's sad that in one of the few times in his rotten life that he's right, it's only an attempt to sow discord among his opponents.

3. She needs to whip his apricot ass again.

[vlyons]

4. Not to worry

Dems don't fall for Trump's BS. We know to just tune him out, because he's a moron, and a mean-spirited moron to boot.

5. ...

He thinks we are all as ignorant as his minions! And he thinks he is the smartest person on the planet!

[malaise]

6. Ignore

BS - he's terrified of Nancy

[Guilded Lilly]

8. He is desperate, scared shitless and proactively pandering to Pelosi

This is a shallow slug of a human who thrives on wretched sucking up and pathological lying to protect his pathetic ass.

[spanone]

9. So he can get Democrats to vote for Nancy? This guy should start drinking....

then there might be an excuse for his behavior

[drray23]

14. The entire house votes fo the speaker not just the democrats.

There is a caucus vote which only requires simple majority within the party. Pelosi has that.

Then, it's on the floor of the house where she needs 218.
Republicans could vote for Pelosi instead of their candidate. Obviously Trump is talking nonsense . In practice I find it hard to believe any GOP would vote for Pelosi...

[spanone]

16. of course they do, but he's not going to deliver republican votes for her...

he thinks he runs the house too....delusional

[Jersey Devil]

10. He thinks it will be easy for him to use Nancy as a foil

Then he can demonize her and replace Hillary with an updated "enemy" for his base to hate. I don't think he appreciates that she will be a much more formidable opponent than he imagines.

[TheBlackAdder]

23. Whoever the speaker is, they will be demonized. The rubes watching FOX will just have an old target.

[UniteFightBack]

11. I have disregarded what he has said about Pelosi since he is a liar. He's irrelevant. nt

[NoMoreRepugs]

12. Desperate Donnie Little Hands is SCARED.

[LBM20]

13. So he is going to get Republicans, his people, to support her? He is trying to sow discord.

He is trying to sow discord by making Dems go against her because they hate HIM and he is appearing to support her.

Typical Trump lies and tricks.

He is a game-playing teenager. Turn him off.

[Johnny2X2X]

15. He's a clown

He thinks he’s clever, but he’s not. He’s pulling some double revserse psychology BS.

He wants people to think he wants her to win because he wants to run against her, but in reality he wants her to lose because he doesn’t want to run against Dems with her as the Speaker. He’s transparent and an idiot.

[rurallib]

17. I am guessing the chance that Benedict Donald really wrote that tweet are

about the same as me starting at quarterback for Alabama today

[Renew Deal]

18. Why do you think he wants her to be speaker?

That’s what this is.

[Leith]

19. He Wants Her Indebted to Him

...as if...

[unitedwethrive]

20. A little reverse psychology, because it's the only trick he knows.

He can’t think past the old standby parents use on the preschoolers when trying to get them to eat brussel sprouts.

[hexola]

22. Its Trumps way of taking credit for inevitable events

He does this stuff all the time...

But- this will, in fact, piss off a segment of his base.

[bluestarone]

24. He says up then i say down

Everything he says i believe the opposite!!!! IF we learned ANYTHING in two years it's THIS!!!!!!! He's a lying piece of shit!! NOBODY here should believe ANYTHING this asshole says!!! I have complete confidence in OUR DEMS. in the HOUSE to make the right decisions!!
