Pelosi's letter effectively canceling the State of the Union is a reminder:

[kpete]

a) she has tons of leverage
b) she knows pressure points
C) she can snap her fingers and seek Trump’s tax returns.

1. assuming donnie gives the speech to the senate only, what should she schedule opposite it?

i would love it if, while donnie is giving his speech to the senate, the house is in session conducting a hearing on donnie's taxes!

4. It would be extremely troubling if the Senate held the SOTU in their chamber.

5. No more troubling than Donnie being the one delivering it!

6. If they did that, they would . . .

expose themselves for the treason weasels they've become. Particularly with Trumpski making sounds about his desire to pull out of NATO.

Nancy Pelosi has set the trap.

9. Yep! Exactly.

[peggysue2]

10. Nancy is . . .

definitely playing hardball. She's not afraid; she's not intimidated. Thank our lucky stars she's on our side!

8. if he tries that then Democrats need to boycott it. Since the gov is shutdown there can be no SOTU

from trump that is not "fake news"

[duforsure]

2. She now should suggest all legislation

And appointments come to a standstill until after the government is reopened by McConnell and trump, or nothing gets done.

3. Absolument!

7. Who wants to watch that shit anyhow?

If I wanted to listen to Drumpf ramble on about how great he is I could go to YouTube.
