Wow-- more details on the White House meeting, via a senior Democratic aide:

Wow-- more details on the White House meeting, via a senior Democratic aide:

Pelosi directly to Trump: Russia has always wanted a "foothold in the Middle East" and now it has one.

"All roads with you lead to Putin."

It sounds like quite the back and forth with Trump and Pelosi.

Trump to Pelosi: "I hate ISIS more than you do."

Pelosi to Trump: "You don't know that."


At one point Schumer said, "Is your plan to rely on the Syrians and the Turks?"

Trump: "Our plan is to keep the American people safe"

Pelosi: "That's not a plan. That's a goal."


As Pelosi and Hoyer walked out of the meeting, Trump said to them, "I'll see you at the polls."

(He will probably be seeing them before Nov. 2020.)


Imagine how different things would be right now if Republicans still controlled the House and Paul Ryan was still speaker.

His secret is that he can't stand direct confrontation. If you look him in the eye he collapses. That's why his strategy revolves around isolating himself and relying on twitter and subordinates to do his dirty work. Has he ever fired a person to his/her face?

That's about second grade level taunting on par with "My dad can beat up your dad!" I just wouldn't even engage in that kind of garbage. Just call it what it is and move on.

I have a feeling the Speaker has seen proof to validate making such a claim.

The vote against him by Repubs as well as Dems freaked him out.

Narcissistic rage.

I wish Pelosi replied, “I’ll see you at the arraignment. “
