Nancy Pelosi uninvites Trump from the State of the Union until the shutdown is over

Quote
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has uninvited President Donald Trump from delivering the State of the Union address because of the partial government shutdown, saying that because of security concerns, it would be better to wait until the government has reopened, or for Trump to submit it in writing.

In a letter to Trump on Wednesday, Pelosi delivered the news that she wants to postpone the address from its preplanned January 29 date and work with the president to “determine another suitable date,” or for the president to deliver it in writing. Trump and Congress have been at an impasse for weeks over his refusal to sign a government funding bill unless it includes $5.7 billion for the construction of some 200 miles of wall at the US-Mexico border, and Pelosi said she’s looking to reschedule Trump’s speech once that issue is settled and the government is back up and running.

Any day I don't have to hear President Trump butcher the English language and insult my intelligence is a good day.  God Bless you Speaker Pelosi.

Not an entirely accurate headline. She didn’t formally rescind the invitation.

He can still address the nation about the State of the Union.  He can give Nancy the middle finger and continue on.  He is the President of the United States.  Pack sand Nancy.

Well, you don't have to listen to Trump; obviously you have that option.  Praising ANYONE who is hell bent on destroying the sovereignty of this country is shameful and I question your reasoning and logic.

“Sadly given the security concerns and unless government re-opens this week, I suggest that we work together to determine another suitable date after government has re-opened for this address or for you to consider delivering State of the Union address in writing to the Congress on January 29th,”

The latest I just heard at 5:10 pm, central time, is, the White House/Trump has been quiet and not responding to anything today.

He’s too busy eating 700 hamburgers.


With much of the government shut down, the President paid for the food himself. He initially told reporters that the spread included “300 hamburgers” but later told the players he had sent out for “about 1,000 hamburgers.”

Based on his handwriting and signature, I think I’ve found an early draft of the speech.....

If he is prevented from giving an oral address, doesn't that mean there can be no "equal time" speeches?"
