Thread: Trump banned from Capitol Building by Speaker Pelosi, No SOTU there

    Trump banned from Capitol Building by Speaker Pelosi, No SOTU there

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Blocks President Trump Entry into Capitol Building – Confirms State of Union Speech Cancellation…




    It looks like Speaker of The House Nancy Pelosi has no intention of allowing the House chamber to be used for a State of the Union address.

    Speaker Pelosi has informed the House Sergeant at Arms that no executive branch official will be permitted entry into the Capitol building.

    Earlier Fox News reported Pelosi cancelled a walkthrough last week, and a second request for reconsideration from the White House is expected to meet the same fate. The House Speaker controls who is, and who is not, permitted entry to the House floor. Until Speaker Pelosi calls for a vote to support a joint session of congress, the President cannot enter the chamber.

    There's a thing at the other end of the building called the Senate Chamber. Pelosi has an excuse for saying, "Fukk the Constitution." She has brain damage. Let's see if McConnell comes up with an excuse.

    Both bodies meet in the same chamber. I've forgotten which is which. One doesn't have all the security features, and is open to the tourists.

    But there is a House chamber and a Senate chamber, and regardless of what features the Senate's auditorium may or may not have, McConnell needs to invite Trump to it.

    The SOTU is required by the Constitution, and Pelosi can kiss my ass.

    Trump again offers GOP votes to make Pelosi speaker. This time it doesn’t sound like he’s joking.

    President Trump on Saturday re-upped his offer to help Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) become House speaker in the next Congress by rallying Republican members to vote for her; this time it’s not so obvious that he’s joking.

    Many had assumed Trump was being sarcastic or trolling the House Democratic leader when he tweeted immediately after Democrats secured a House majority in last week’s midterm elections: “Nancy Pelosi deserves to be chosen Speaker of the House by the Democrats. If they give her a hard time, perhaps we will add some Republican votes.”

    [Democratic Rep. Moulton draws fire for campaign to deny Pelosi speaker’s job]

    Trump, after all, has vilified Pelosi as much as anyone over the years, warning days before the election that she would abolish borders and impose socialism if her party won and she gained power. Her toxic image on the right side of the political spectrum is part of the reason many Democrats have qualms about making her speaker after the party gained a thin majority in last week’s election.

    This drama between close pals, Trump and Pelosi is faker than the fight between Hulk Hogan and warrior and the annoying part is that the evidence is out there for all to see.

    As for the Conservative Tree House, somebody needs to inform them Pelosi doesn't own the Capitol and can't ban anyone from it--at least not without McConnell's complicity.

    That's true. But if McConnell doesn't throw his dog in the fight, he has no balls.

    Come on, this is just a tit for tat between friends. See, he took away her photo op opportunity with the troops in Afghanistan and now she took away his photo op for SOTUA. But don't worry, behind closed door, all is fine

    I really don't know what the rules are for controlling the capitol building but the drama is still exciting. Maybe Nancy Pelosi can do it , maybe McConnell can over rule her, who really knows.

    These are good times. What's not to love about the government dysfunction. I think it would be funny if Trump held the SOTU at the DAR Constitution Hall. Really no different than one of his rallies. Invite the Republicans and leave the Democrats out. Who needs to see them on TV sitting on their hands when Trump speaks anyway? The place seats over 3000 people. Plenty of room.

    I am a libertarian. I am advocating everyone enjoy maximum freedom on both personal and economic issues as long as they do not bring violence unto others.

    He needs to invite the SCOTUS Justices though so that everyone can see RBG is dead.

    You really know.

    The Capitol serves two houses and has two chambers. Now then. You tell me. Pelosi has, at most, how much of the total authority over that building?

    Trump should save the taxpayers money and call congress to sit on the grass in a D.C. Winter while he gives a speech.

    We're being governed ruled by a geriatric Alzheimer patient/puppet whose strings are being pulled by an elitist oligarchy who believe they can manage the world... imagine the utter maniacal, sociopathic hubris!

    Well in time, we will see. But I wouldn't be surprised if she actually have the authority to do that.
