[W:607]Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

WOW. He just got utterly, completely destroyed.

Just look at Pence: https://twitter.com/bubbaprog/status/1072540867590848514

They tag-teamed him so hard that he:

A. Insisted a lot of the wall was built
B. THEN insisted that it wasn’t built
C. THEN demanded money to build a wall that he said was somehow built and not yet built
D. Made himself responsible for a potential shutdown ("I'm PROUD to shut down the gov't for border security")
E. Whine about winning the Senate and then insisting upon as if it were important in the context of the talk.

That's the problem with these "public meetings". Everybody is trying to get their gotcha sound bites in. It's a Trump shut down. Is not, is too, is not, is too, not not not, too too too. And they got him stammering and and fumbling over his words. Great, awesome. So nothing gets done. 5 billion dollars is not a big ask. The US budget is over 4 trillion dollars. Isn't that like, less that 1%? It's all politics. That's it. It's not about the money.

The president should stand his ground. This is his last chance to get something meaningful out of them before 2020. There should be no quarter. Otherwise he will not win re election

Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

If you are referring to Schumer saying: “When a president brags that he’s won Indiana and North Dakota, he’s in real trouble,” I don't find that disrespectful. Those are two bright red states and if Trump is bragging that he won them, it's not much of a brag.

I'm thinking the citizens of those two states might be thinking Chuck was saying...ND, VA, who cares. That, coming from a NY Senator.

Chuck might end up regretting his remark.
 
Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

Pelosi and Schumer: "Let's debate this in private."

As soon as the meeting is over, they run to the cameras.

Liberals are disgusting creatures.
 
Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

btw, Chuck just disrespected the entire population of two States. Good job.

More Mycroft nonsense.

They are both traditionally Republican strongholds, and Trump is touting the fact that he carried them...
Hence Schumer's astute remark that if Trump, a Republican, is touting two Republicans strongholds as victories, than he's in trouble.

When are you gonna get some facts straight? Even if it's random, you should have gotten something correct by now. My guess is you intentionally spread misinformation, based on the number of times I've seen you do this, and that you never accept correction. As google told the nutters today, if you want positive replies, make truthful posts.
Indiana has long been considered to be a Republican stronghold and is rated R+7 on the Cook Partisan Voting Index.
Today, North Dakota is a very safe state for the Republicans in presidential elections.

that's demonstrably false. they all love it.

They didn’t run to the cameras, the cameras ran to them. And the reason this should have been private is because neither Schumer or Pelosi wanted to call out Trump for his inaccurate remarks in public.

LOL...in that light it is clear that the two DEM leaders of Congress are senior versions of short-circuiting trope spewing robots - rebooting to ROM when their RAM is fried.

That’s not really fair. As a NYer I can tell you without doubt that Chuck Schumer never met a camera he didn’t like.

Though since this was at the WH there’s little doubt who invited the press.
 
Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

But he said Mexico would pay for the wall. So who is the hypocrite? It's Trump.
Mexico will pay in the long run. Plus the US will have a net saving by not having illegals soaking up social services and educational costs that are meant for citizens.

The problem is Trump has no ground on which to stand.
 
Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

Pelosi knows that there never will be a wall. People need to stop clinging to this misguided dream. The problem is Trump thinks he has the votes for it or something like it.

Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

Nancy later said, this is like a manhood thing for him.

She nailed it. This is probably a legacy thing for him to do, and leave his mark by building a big ass wall. He has a lot sexy pet names for it, and calls it beautiful. If a wall built like he describes, it could be the largest constructed project in America.

Pharaohs built temples for the same reasons
 
Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

Trump is just going through the motions...giving the Dems a chance to do the right thing...letting them publicly expose their hypocritical opposition.

In the meantime, he is telling the People that their opposition doesn't matter. He will build the wall.

Despite the large Caravans that WERE forming and heading to our Country, people have not been able to get through our newly built Walls, makeshift Walls & Fences, or Border Patrol Officers & Military. They are now staying in Mexico or going back to their original countries.......
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 11, 2018

.....Ice, Border Patrol and our Military have done a FANTASTIC job of securing our Southern Border. A Great Wall would be, however, a far easier & less expensive solution. We have already built large new sections & fully renovated others, making them like new. The Democrats,.....
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 11, 2018

....however, for strictly political reasons and because they have been pulled so far left, do NOT want Border Security. They want Open Borders for anyone to come in. This brings large scale crime and disease. Our Southern Border is now Secure and will remain that way.......
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 11, 2018

.....I look forward to my meeting with Chuck Schumer & Nancy Pelosi. In 2006, Democrats voted for a Wall, and they were right to do so. Today, they no longer want Border Security. They will fight it at all cost, and Nancy must get votes for Speaker. But the Wall will get built...
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 11, 2018

....People do not yet realize how much of the Wall, including really effective renovation, has already been built. If the Democrats do not give us the votes to secure our Country, the Military will build the remaining sections of the Wall. They know how important it is!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 11, 2018​

The irony here is illegal immigration has continued to decreased under Trump's leadership without the type of border wall Trump seeks. So, if the numbers are going down and that's largely due to increased Border Patrol agents, more ICE agents, a "narrowing of the funnel" at specific checkpoints whereby illegal immigrants can legally enter the country and a significant change in policy directed towards a more hardlined vetting process, why would you need the wall? Seems the job's getting done without it.

Trump is a freaking baby. He can go ahead and shut the government down just like he threats, and the American people will not reward him for his temper tantrums.
 
Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

About to watch it now.



Five and a half minutes in and trump is just rambling and ranting. Waiting for the "clash" to happen.


I guess his daddy never told him, beggars can't be chosers

Exactly. Thankyou. I wish more citizens would understand that the POTUS #1 obligation is to protect the citizens. Maybe they should spend a little more on that, and a little less on programs that people take advantage of.

Question. Is shutting down the government this time of season, going be waging war on Christmas? Because the kids don't get their toys on time, Christmas will be ruined.
 
Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

Mexico will pay in the long run.

By laughing at Trump?

I guess you consider that "paying," maybe getting coffee on their keyboards?

You know, I honestly thought this was just a joke, but the Trump supporters on this forum are convincing me it's real. Check this out (Yes, Mexicans are allowed to own them!):

 
Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

Why does the cameras have to get out of the room? Let everyone see how it goes? Because I’m very curious

It was the Democrats that wanted to leave. Trump is 100% comfortable on the camera in the open.

"the numbers are going down"...isn't good enough.
 
Re: Trump Oval Office meeting with Pelosi, Schumer spirals over border wall — live updates

They did. They just didn't think the discussion should have an American president threatening to close down the US government if he doesn't get his way - and the legislative branch doesn't get his way.

He sounded like a thuggish landlord threatening to shut down your water heater if you don't turn the music down. At one point, they made him say he would shut the government down, while also denying he had said it.

Lol, when I do that to folks in this forum they call it trolling. Our president has become so senile he cannot keep up with another geriatric's trolling.

Pence didn't join him because of how embarrassing the whole thing is for Trump. Hell, his own handlers couldn't wait to get people out of the O2.



Sent from Trump Plaza's basement using Putin's MacBook.

Actually Cryin' Chuck who was sloaching the entire time wanted that meeting to end. The Democrats were being exposed to supporting open borders.

Yes, open borders:

Your information is dated. That was true initially but has dramatically reversed itself. The "Trump Effect" of jawboning frightened illegals until they realized that the notorious unregistered agents for foreign interests (aka the Democrats in Congress) would protect illegals from being treated as it they were illegal.

So once again they come, thumbing their nose at American sovereignty. Here is the latest, in chart form, of the increase in illegal border activity:
