Citing security concerns during the shutdown, Nancy Pelosi has asked Donald Trump to*give his State of the Union address in writing.
Trump’s*response?
Canceling her trip*to Brussels Thursday night right before takeoff.
TRUMP DENIES PELOSI AIRCRAFT FOR FOREIGN TRIP, AFTER CALL FOR STATE OF THE UNION DELAY
In the letter he said, he was "sorry to inform her," that he's canceling the trip.

Point to Trump for epic trolling.

Minus one million points to the US for hitting an evil lower point.

I would prefer she stay in the US till there is a budget and the government is fully open. Pelosi is after all the speaker of the House. Guess she must figure what is another 7-10 days.
She should read the impact the partial shutdown is starting to have on the economy. While the federal workers are going to get paid. That is not the case for contractors who are currently shut down.

Trump did say she was free to fly commercial. lol.

Okay, I think Trump did a very stupid thing here and I don't agree with much of the crap coming out of either side here.

That said, PLEASE explain to me what office Melania was elected or appointed to that is relevant to ending the shutdown? Can you show me where she requires a special level of security similar to a gathering of all major government officials? Maybe you can tell me how just about anything is impacted by her getting on a plane.

He's still pouting...obviously. Negotiate my a$$. There's no negotiation Mr. President. He expects American Taxpayers to pay for a wall that he claimed Mexico would pay for. The longer this drags on, the worse it is for him.

Why would President Trump authorize the military to fly Pelosi out of the country on a PR campaign trip? She should use her own Congressional budget to fly commercial to campaign. Why should the military fly her anywhere?

Pelosi is one of the richest members of Congress of course, worth as much as $200 million dollars.

What's even funnier is that it's in writing and not just rhetoric. His campaign clearly outlined it on his website, so all of the side stepping and creative math the administration is doing now is even funnier.

He isnt trolling. He is concerned for her safety

I think it's great that these people care about each other so much that Pelosi is worried about Trump's safety at SOTU and Trump, in return, is worried about Nancy's safety.

Its a shame that conservatives treat the real world like a junior high school football game. And you were literally (and obediently) cheering about something as if Nancy going to Afghanistan was some sort of pleasure cruise. Anyhoo, using your childish standard, trump caving like a junior high school punk had to sting for you right?

Protect Trump with a roll of bubble-wrap. Good enough.
