Trump refuses to invite Speaker Pelosi to coronavirus bill signing after she delivers the votes for

On Friday, CNN reported that President Donald Trump is not inviting any Democrats to the signing ceremony for the $2 trillion coronavirus stimulus package — even though House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), and the rank and file Democrats in Congress played a huge role in its negotiation and passage.

“On the signing ceremony, it appears no Democrats have been invited to President Trump’s signing ceremony, despite the fact that every now and then he says that the country needs to come together, how great it is that the bill passed the Senate 96-0,” said anchor Jake Tapper to reporter Kaitlan Collins. “Is there a strategy behind this? Is he trying to make it seem as though only Republicans are bringing this well-needed aid to the American people? Or is this just petulance and pettiness?”

he is a vile evil POS, he is giving meat to his base little do they know they will be thrown under the bus.

Division and hate fuels this POS. We need to put forth the 25th Amendment. Period.

His base can go to hell, they are hanging on his every word. They will be sorry.

That signing ceremony was a case study in how germs spread.

While #Traitor is a pos, it's better Dems were well away
