Ted Cruz Perfectly Explains Why Nancy Pelosi Is So Terrified of Trump Giving the SOTU Address

[BS Filter]

Of course President Trump did offer that Speaker "Blinkie" Pelosi could always fly on a commercial flight on her own dime, since there are 1000s of government employees working without being paid. I love how this president stirs up the Democraps into a frenzy by playing their own rules back at them....

And who paid for Melania's little vacation in Florida?

Because it sure as fuck wasen't Trump. Not when he can stick the taxpayers with the bill!

Trump is a vile pile of shit. A real shitbag.

And who paid for fat ass Michelle when she wanted to get out of the White House?

Nice to have a beautiful classy First Lady instead of a phoney racist fat ass arrogant bitch.

You mean like Melania posing bare ass in a men's mag?

I'll bet you beat off to her pics.

I'll bet you give your dog blow jobs.

Updated - Trump-O-Meter: Take no salary
"At the White House press briefing on April 3, press secretary Sean Spicer announced that Trump would be donating his full first-quarter, pre-tax earnings of $78,333 to the National Park Service."
"In keeping with his campaign pledge, the president donates his salary on a quarterly basis to further important projects. Today, the president is proud to donate his 2018 first-quarter salary to the Department of Veterans Affairs to support their caregiver programs," she said.
President Donald Trump donated his second-quarter salary for 2018 to the Small Business Association, reaffirming his promise to forgo a presidential paycheck.

White House, "President Donald J. Trump to Donate Salary to the Department of Education," July 26, 2017
Army Times, "Trump donates his presidential paycheck to VA caregivers," May 17, 2018
BBC, "How common is Trump's $1 salary?," Nov. 14, 2018

Hmm...., Speaking of a POS, How much of Obama's salary was donated to the VA, or any cause in his eight year reign? It appears Obama sucked on the taxpayers teat pretty well and so did his wife Mike, while giving little away. Seems BO became a multi-millionaire at the end of his eight years.

 

[busybee01]

Ted's cucking up to Don now? After all the shit Don said about his father and wife? Now there's ya a real man.

Oh please. Need we remind you what Hillary said bout O'Bozo and what he said about her?

Cruz is MAN ENOUGH to understand this is politics. It's the last man (or woman) standing. So everything said in the past is usually forgiven unless you have people with a chip on their shoulder like McCain or Kasich. McCain went to his grave filled with hate and Kasich couldn't get enough Republican votes to run for dog catcher. In fact he just got hired by CNN.

Ted Cruz is a lapdog. He narrowly won in a red state. He is a loser.

You may think that if you wish, but he's spot on in his comment about the address.

That is so much bullshit. Cruz has no clue what he is talking about.

 

[busybee01]

She doesn't want to see behind him and listen to him lie.

It's pretty simple.

Open the government Mr. President

Trump will open the government the minute he gets the wall, and that's on Piglosi and Shoemaker.

Then he's never going to open the government because 5 billion isn't a wall

Then it stays closed. And after 30 days, he has the right to layoff those workers as well.

Lay off the people who insure our food is safe. Ensure that justice is done in the court system. Try it and next stop Barry Goldwater numbers start to look good.

Ted Cruz Perfectly Explains Why Nancy Pelosi Is So Terrified of Trump Giving the SOTU Address​

WATCH: Ted Cruz Perfectly Explains Why Nancy Pelosi Is So Terrified of Trump Giving the SOTU Address
Why does Nancy Pelosi NOT want the State of the Union? Because the State of the Union is an enormous platform for the president to speak directly to the American people, and she doesn’t want people focusing on the substance of this issue. She wants their information to come from the mainstream media rather than the president.
The long answer? I’ll let Cruz himself explain it.

Listen, it’s the same reason, You remember, back right before the shutdown, when the president met with Pelosi and Schumer in the Oval Office and it was a remarkable meeting. I thought the funniest and most revealing moment was when Pelosi said multiple times, “Please, can we turn the cameras off? Can we get the reporters out of here” She didn’t want people to see that their position was objectively unreasonable. The president said he’s willing to compromise; he’s willing to negotiate but we need to secure the border. The president’s right. Their position is not defensible she’s trying to hide from the cameras and I don’t think we should let her.​

Right now, Pelosi and Trump are involved in a back and forth, with Pelosi closing off the House to Trump to deliver his SOTU address. Trump struck back by denying Pelosi the use of taxpayer-funded, military travel, as my colleague Strieff described:


~~~~~~
The entire Democrat Party is left wing., they've been infiltrated by the Progressive Marxist Socialist DSA. The most extreme components do not hate Trump. They hate America.
Where does Pelosi get the authority to travel at our taxpayer expense as her travels were not job related to Speaker of US House a legislative role. She is not in charge of foreign policy nor military activity, Trump as head of Exec branch is.
The object of the trip to Brussels was to get some pointers from their EU Socialist globalist masters who are trying to destroy England. We used to call those trips political junkets... stupid and pointless wastes of taxpayer dollars.
When recently questioned by her fawning LSM, “Pelosi said multiple times, “Please, can we turn the cameras off?” Can you imagine if the roles were reversed and the DJT would’ve said that? The biased MSM would still be on it 24/7.
It is a good thing Trump killed that trip as it was nothing more than Pelosi strutting around as though she was a co-President meeting with foreign dignitaries. She wanted the visuals to augment her claim to power as the equivalent to the President. She surely needs to put back in her place.
One more reason that Senator Cruz has been consistently under-rated. He has a sharp mind and the intestinal fortitude to use it. His detractors are way off base.

Trump will once again remind Americans of his accomplishments in just two years. This is in light of the 90+ percent negative coverage of him by the MSM.

Of course she doesn't want him talking directly to the American people. Because when Trump points out all the great things that happened in the last two years, it may turn some heads. It's the same reason the left is against conservative speakers at colleges.

Years ago after Bush's first win, the Democrats concluded that their failure was because they don't have a leftist Rush Limbaugh. So the solution is to create one. Rush responded by saying you can't create a leftist Rush Limbaugh because the entertainment on my show are the liberals themselves. We play what they've said, read what they've written, and you just can't do that with the right.

So when it comes to speaking, the left wants to silence the right because what our people say make absolute sense. When they speak, we can't wait to hear what they're going to say. We dare not try to stop them because we want America to see what the leftist policies are and how they think. When their message gets through, it's the best thing for the Republican party because that's how we pickup new voters.

I agree with you. Hasn't it been the case that the Left has tried to silence the Conservative Right in totality since the turn of the millennia?

Of course, but can you blame them? The right uses logic; something Democrats have never used before. They love conspiracies, dog and pony shows like Mrs "I'm going to fetch me a beer:" They love protests and people wearing pussy hats. The right has logic.

When you have people on your side that may also have logic, it's very precarious to allow speakers from the other side that have the same. We have people crossing our borders, so we need to build a wall to stop them. That's logic. Conspiracy theories are that everybody that wants to get in will buy a ladder or dig a tunnel. While that may be true for an extremely small percentage, it fails the logic test because most invaders will not go through all that trouble. Or the fact that if you create more gun laws, they only effect law abiding citizens. The criminals will never openly give up their guns. That's logic.

So they have to stop the word of logic from the right.

The right uses hate not logic. A majority of voters do not support your logic.

 

[busybee01]

Who cares what a bootlicker like Ted Cruz has to say-- The only thing in that meeting, which was aired on National T.V. that anyone actually paid attention too, was Trump stating he was proud to shut down his own government. Basically admitting he's using Federal Workers as pawns to extort money out of American taxpayer pockets, to build his worthless campaign signature WALL, after promising that Mexico would pay for it.

And Democrats are not doing the same; using those workers to keep illegal immigration going?

This is Trump's shutdown as per Trump himself.

 

[busybee01]

She doesn't want to see behind him and listen to him lie.

It's pretty simple.

Open the government Mr. President

You mean she doesn't want the voters to know the truth about Pelosi and Schumer and what they're trying to pull

By a narrow 49 - 44 percent American voters trust Democrats in Congress more than Trump on the issue of border security.

President Trump's TV address to the nation last week was "mostly misleading," 49 percent of American voters say, while 32 percent say it was "mostly accurate."

Voters are divided on the response by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer as 38 percent found it "mostly accurate" and 39 percent found it "mostly misleading."

American voters believed Pelosi/Schumer more than Trump 46 - 36 percent, including 48 - 33 percent among independent voters.

Ted Cruz is a spineless jellyfish for defending a man that talked the worst kind of trash in the primaries. Seriously, how the hell can he just forgive all that shit when Trump has never made a move to apologize?

The same way Christ forgave the romans nailing Him to the cross when they made no effort to apologize. Not forgiving those who hurt us creates bitterness and pain in ourselves regardless of how the other person acts. It’s only by forgiving others that the pains inflicted upon ourselves can be completely healed.

And the President is right in this issue. We need to secure the border. A wall is an important tool for national security

Voters disagree with you.

 

[busybee01]

We donl't need a 30' concrete wall. When the fuck are you assfucks going to admit it.

When you admit the entire plot by the Democrats is to keep illegals flowing in for political advantage and screw the Americans who are raped, robbed or killed by these people. Just say it--Democrats don't care about Americans.

Americans do not support Trump, they support Democrats. You want dead Americans so you can use them to play politics.

Exactly. In 2017 republicans tried to make the Virginia election about immigration and lost the State House for the first time in decades

In 2018 they made the mid terms about "the caravans" and lost 40 seats in the House and overall got NINE MILLION less votes...

When you admit the entire plot by the Democrats is to keep illegals flowing in for political advantage and screw the Americans who are raped, robbed or killed by these people. Just say it--Democrats don't care about Americans.

Actually, shit for brains, Democrats would rather sped 5.7 billion on actions that actually would stop illegals and not some fat assed orange POS's dream of a God damn wall.

Sure they will. They will spend money on anything they can get rid of if they ever get the presidency again. That's the reason they don't want a wall.

That's another reason I want more of the wall..........Would be hard for them to justify tearing it down.......They will not let the loopholes get closed.....so it makes the CBP do their job more efficiently...........

Most of the money is for areas where there is a problem of them coming across.........biggest area is the Rio Grande areas............Where they have better infrastructure arrests have gone down.........because it's more difficult to get across there. With the sensors and security measures added in.......they know when illegals are climbing the walls.

You know how the sheep are. The party tells them they want border security when they really want just the opposite. So if we build a wall and they end up tearing it down, there can't be anymore evidence than that what their goals really are which is open borders.

What we want to spend the money on is more than just walls, it's technology that assist those walls in stopping illegals. So their puppet masters tell them technology alone will solve the problem.

But you know how liberals are. They don't think for themselves. If they did, they would ask themselves "Wait a minute! If they say the walls and technology won't work, HTF will technology alone work with no walls?"

It's why I've always said, if I were ever to try and sell somebody a bridge, I would make sure to sell it to a liberal, because they'll believe anything they're told.

You are a typical Trump supporter clueless. Americans do not support a wall. The problems are at our POEs. That is where drugs and weapons are smuggled into. Trump supporters are the ones who cannot think for themselves. All they can do is repeat Trump's lies.

If you believe that then I want to sell you the Brooklyn Bridge. More Americans are becoming disgusted with Trump because of the shutdown.

Two years ago, Jeff Daudert was fed up with politics. He wanted to shake up the status quo. He didn’t mind sending a message to the establishment — and, frankly, he liked the idea of a disruptive president.


But the 49-year-old retired Navy reservist has had some second thoughts.

“What the [expletive] were we thinking?” he asked the other night inside a Walmart here, in an area of blue-collar suburban Detroit that helped deliver Trump the presidency.

"While Trump’s relationship with much of his base remains strong, two years after his inauguration his ties are fraying with voters like Daudert, the kind who voted in droves for Trump in 2016 in key pockets throughout the industrial Midwest and flipped previously Democratic states to him. The shutdown fight, as it has played out over the past month, is further eroding his support among voters who like the idea of beefing up border security, but not enough to close the government. Many here, even those who still support Trump, say they hold him most responsible. They recite his comment from the Oval Office that he would be “proud to shut down the government.” When he said it, they listened."

"
Recent polling indicates that the government shutdown has caused skittishness among parts of Trump’s base, which has been one of the most enduring strengths of his presidency. A new NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll, conducted Jan. 10 to Jan. 13, found his net approval rating had dropped 7 points since December.

One of the biggest drops came from suburban men, whose approval rating of Trump fell a net change of 18 percentage points, while evangelicals and Republicans also dipped by smaller margins. Among men without a college degree, the downward change was 7 points.

As Jeremiah Wilburn, a 45-year-old operating engineer, browsed the aisles at Walmart for a new pair of coveralls, he reflected on some of those shifts. Like many voters here, after siding twice in the elections with former president Barack Obama, he decided to gamble with Trump in 2016. And for most of the past two years, he was pleased. The economy was humming, jobs were flowing and wages seemed stable.

Until now.

“I was doing fine with him up until this government shutdown,” he said. “It’s ridiculous. You’re not getting the wall built for $5 billion. And Mexico is not paying for it, we all know that, too. Meanwhile, it’s starting to turn people like me away.”

He worries about the impact the shutdown will have on the economy. He’s concerned about the impact on his brother, who works for the TSA in Florida.

To him, the shutdown standoff has also poked holes in Trump’s ability to say that he cares for the working class, given that 800,000 federal employees and additional contractors going without a paycheck.

“You can’t expect people to come to work without getting paid,” Wilburn said. “If I were them, I certainly wouldn’t come to work.”

Macomb County, in the suburbs north of Detroit, has been a perennial political battleground, and a place where the broad sweeps of American politics can be seen. It was the most Democratic suburb in the country when John F. Kennedy was elected president in 1960, and then it helped usher in the phrase “Reagan Democrats” when Ronald Reagan won the White House two decades later.

Obama won the county twice, and then Trump defeated Hillary Clinton by 12 points. The county is filled with the white working-class voters whose flip to Trump has been the most heralded part of his coalition. Trump came here during his campaign, and again in the final days before the 2016 election. He returned last year for a rally meant to pointedly spurn the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner that same night. It’s an area he has continued to nurture.

But in the midterm elections, some of those voters started to peel away. Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) carried the county by 2 points, and Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) won by 4 points. Whitmer ran a campaign that barely mentioned Trump, and instead promoted basic bipartisan governance, with the slogan: “Fix the Damn Roads.”

Trump voters now blame him for the government shutdown

[busybee01]

Obama supported border security you God damn asshole.

You want to 3asdyytte 5.7 billion on a 200 mile wall that can be climbed over, dug undser & just plain gone around.

You watch too many cartoons. You can't just dig under or climb over a wall. Digging under a wall requires a lot of time, work, and costly construction equipment. As for climbing over, simple motion detectors could tell our agents when people are approaching the wall. Walk around a 200 mile wall. Do you have any idea how far 200 miles is?

You people on the left thing you are geniuses; that none of these possibilities have been considered by our agencies and engineers.

So why not just use the motion detectors?

Changing your route From Guatemala to avoid the part with Trump's magnificent wall is not a big deal.

The French built a wall to keep the Nazi;s out. How did that work out?

Because if you just use motion detectors, by the time anybody gets there the intruders will be gone and then they have to spend time hunting them down. If they are alerted before they approach the wall, they can get to the area. By the time they breach the wall, it's likely somebody will be there for the apprehension.

But that's actually irrelevant because the main function of the wall is to act as a deterrent. It won't stop everybody, but it will stop most.

So, you want a wall only because it adds time to an illegal border crossing?

As I said, the main purpose of the wall is to act as a deterrent. It's kind of liking having a house alarm. It will stop most people, but some people will ignore it and try to do a smash and grab. Because that does happen from time to time, it's no reason to not have your house alarmed.

This country has been a refuge for people in trouble. People are fleeing drug cartels that hold sway in Central America and large swaths of Mexico. The border is not a house and has nothing to do with houses. It is about people who fear for their lives. One girl said "There are police here, in case something happens to us,".
