The Country Be Damned !
If it never was exactly personal it is now without a doubt.. Today Trump called Pelosi a third rate politician right to her face...
The toxic exchange was the latest sign of the dramatically deteriorating relations between Trump and Pelosi since she launched an impeachment investigation against him last month.
"He was insulting, particularly to the Speaker... He called her a third-rate politician," cried Schumer after they abruptly left the White House meeting on Trump's controversial troop pullout from northern Syria. Incidentally other lawmakers from both parties remained inside.
Of course both parties are claiming that the other has "lost it"... Having a meltdown is their favorite expression. But trump is far from having a meltdown as he hurled his well planted barbs at Pelosi without so much as a quiver.
He is the Rocky Marciano of Presidents. There is no other man that I can think of who could endure this kind of pressure and punch so hard. For him failing is not an option. He doesn't just say it. the man lives it. It must be mystifying to the left ; this man who won against stacked odds and has never relented since he walked through the door of the White House as President.
"Dem 'leadership' chose to storm out & whine to camera," Grisham tweeted. "Everyone else stayed to work on behalf of our country."
“Goodbye, we’ll see you at the polls,” Trump shot out as they exited the room. But Trump kept firing long after the meeting had concluded.
“Nancy Pelosi needs help fast! There is either something wrong with her ‘upstairs,’ or she just plain doesn’t like our great Country,” “Pray for her, she is a very sick person!” Trump wrote on Twitter.At breakneck speed Pelosi and Schumer find a mic and camera.
"I pray for the president all the time, and I tell him that -- I pray for his safety and that of his family. Now, we have to pray for his health -- because this was a very serious meltdown on the part of the president."As Americans how much of this manure do we swallow before we barf. Do you really think anybody in this White House or government prays for anything but the annihilation of their enemies? I think not ! I wish they would just save it . Sometimes I would like to put them in a Roman colosseum and let them go at it until one person was victorious...Well maybe we can't do that but the knives are out in Washington like never before. It will be a fight to the death as sure as in the colosseum..
And the people, citizens, fellow Americans, common Joes are entertained, maybe sickened, some are afraid, a few are infuriated but each one is lost in an uncertain future which is just around the corner. The people have been the supreme sacrifice in this while the titans have their day.. As much as we are winning under trump we are losing.. Losing our way, our faith and our certainty in the future of our nation..
Trump remains our only hope if we can muster "hope" at all. But for today I took no pleasure in this meeting or any part of it that we are privy to. I will pray also. for my family, for my country and for all of the souls of men and women lost defending our great nation.I somehow can't find the spark to include Washington...
