Somebody added a caption to one of the pictures taken of Speaker to be Pelosi and Sen. Schumer leaving the infamous meeting before Christmas. Schumer appears to be looking down at Pelosi’s shoes:

Schumer: Nancy, is that blood on your shoes?

Pelosi: Shut up and keep walking.

Schumer and trumpp have only one thing in common: they’re both from NY albeit different boroughs and they dislike each other intensely and are not “old buddies”. Worrying before the fact, IMO, isn’t going to change anything.

Should note this meeting is taking place in the situation room so the media can’t record Trump getting schooled by Pelosi and Schumer again.

Place your bets now on how long it will be before Senator Schumer reminds moron of what he said to him a couple of weeks ago:

“I will be the one to shut it down. I’m not going to blame you for it.”

Lordy, I hope there are tapes.

Or at least that the scene is immortalized in somebody’s tell-all book.

Better keep your hand on your wallet, Donnie.

Yes, yes and more yes. Jen Rubin says it better than I can.

One wondrous result of the 2018 election, we will discover, is the near-total irrelevance of Trump’s tweets. He can say whatever wacky thing he wants, throw out whatever insults he pleases, but Pelosi (D-Calif.), the incoming House speaker, is not going to be thrown off track or even alarmed. She takes his tweets as confirmation he is clueless and unstable.

Do a deal with Trump. Refuse to even begin debating “the trade agreement formerly known as “Prince”” until he ends the shut down and agrees to whole scale immigration reform. Hold CUSMA (USMCA) hostage.

Nothing will result from this “meeting.” You can’t “meet” with a disinterested ball of shit. He just wants an excuse to lie on Twitter for another day. Mitch is the one with s decision to make. Individual1 doesn’t have the spine to veto anything. They need to prove this and move on.

OT. The Dem presidential race for 2020 “heats up.”

IT is difficult to imagine how you could be more wrong.

Trump is not disinterested—because that word means “impartial.”

Trump is uninterested, because he doesn’t give a rat’s round rear about anything except himself.

Huh, If Mexico is paying for the wall with the new NAFTA agreement, there is no need for an extra 5.6 billion. And he apparently forgot that Congress approves all trade treaties.
