BECAUSE Pelosi is a formidable foe, Trump tried to circumvent her power and invite D's to a meeting this week...….Pelosi provided carte Blanche to the invitees (with her blessing, adding
"do attend so you can witness what I have to contend with") …..ALL invitees opted out.....much
to the dismay of the king.
So the Democrats who claim to work for the working class poor instead continue to leave them furloughed, letting illegals compete with blue collar people for jobs by lowering wages, and by refusing to negotiate a compromise with the White House.
It is highly likely a Democrat will be President in 2020. So why doesn't Nancy deliver a compromise to placate Donald. The wall won't be finished before Trump is out of office and then she can pull funding. She is sounding much more like a whiny child than an experienced political negotiator. Cave on the wall(temporarily) and start the impeachment process.

FOR FRED...….here is your TRUE reason for the absence of D's at the meeting (from another thread)…..Trump tried to circumvent unsuccessfully......
Don’t look now, but the United States Department of Justice just came perilously close to admitting that it engaged in disinformation about immigrants and terrorism in a formal government report.
I say perilously close, because the department did not quite admit it; in fact, the letter sent to a group of people,
including me, who had raised concerns about a report the Justice Department published last January, announces that the department has concluded that “the Report should not be withdrawn or corrected.”
But the letter, sent to us by Deputy Assistant Attorney General Michael H. Allen, also concedes that “the Report could be criticized by some readers, consistent with some of the concerns presented,” and promises that the department will follow the “principles” of an obscure law known as the Information Quality Act better “in issuing future reports ... to better present such information to the public.” This is about as close as the Trump administration is going to get to admitting that it used a formal government report to distort data to slime Muslims and immigrants.
Let’s back up and consider the whole story in context.
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
BB - Plenty of spouses and teenagers out there to take on that role!

Speaker Nancy Pelosi had invited President Trump to Congress to present his State of the Union speech. She has no un-invited him. What will he do? Speak from the White House Oval Office instead? Cave to her demands and sign a bill with no wall funding?
