. . .her dismissing them at props is a far more insulting charge. They like to think they are the power. Getting called ventriloquist dummies will not be a pleasant thing for them to hear.

said that Trump handed "Chuck and Nancy" incredible power with that stupid performance. They should refuse any talks with Trump, in our out of the White House, until he apologizes for saying/tweeting that they are soft on crime, want to raise taxes, and want to let illegal immigrants into the country unchecked.

I know Dump never apologizes, but they should do it anyway. That will make him look like even more of a fool than usual.

REMEMBER: The majority party sits according to rank. Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer would NOT be formally seated immediately next to the so-called president. That would be the privilege accorded to the corresponding leaders of the majority party, i.e.: Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell. The minority party doesn't get that exalted seating. So to position empty chairs on either side of trump is just another lie. Just another phony-ass fake-news photo op designed for one reason only: to make them look bad. NOBODY can look as bad as The Donald can make himself look.

He is illegitimate!

He was illegitimately elected.

ANYBODY who had an AVOWED ADVERSARY OF AMERICA, like Vladimir Putin of all people, putting his thumb on the scale to help "win" the White House is NOT legitimately elected. Hell, Vladimir Putin isn't even registered to vote. He isn't even a citizen, naturalized or otherwise. But he, our LONGTIME AVOWED ENEMY, who does NOT have the best interests of the United States in mind (HAH! MUCH to the contrary!!!) sure got what he wanted, 'eh?

Some verbal abuse caused the Dems not to show up? I did see the pic of Trump w/the 2 empty chairs.

...was scheduled to take place, Donny tweeted that clearly no deal was possible with Chuck and Nancy.

So they said, No thanks if all it is going to be is a photo op for Trump. Shockingly, they were correct: he made a big deal about the two empty chairs on either side of him, and said (among other lies) that a government shutdown would be all on them.

And subtract one cent from the final tax cut. With a possible government shutdown looming, Nancy and Chuck hold all the cards. What else can we get from the "Great Dealer".

Fake 45 is a white man but to demean him you use a feminine epithet.
