.@LeaderHoyer on meeting that just ended with Trump: "You're gonna hear the president say we walked out -- we were offended, deeply, by his treatment of the Speaker... I have served with 6 presidents... never have I seen a president treat so disrespectfully a coequal branch."

1. Trump didn't have the cameras there this time

Last time he did, he made a fool of himself and the video proved it.

[mitch96]

23. Next time wear body cameras!!!!!!!!!!! nt

[beachbumbob]

2. and what exactly was Pelosi and Schumer expecting?

They better understand they must take a war footing, this is not "normal" politics and they of all people should know that by now.

[orangecrush]

21. +1

[TwilightZone]

22. Based on prior experience, this is probably exactly what they expected.

And they handled it accordingly. They got another Trump meltdown into a news cycle.

[beachbumbob]

40. No doubt Pelosi has no problem with dealing with trump or his masters, its

time she takes off the gloves

[barbtries]

29. they probably expected what happened

but they have to keep making good faith efforts as long as he is president.

[MyOwnPeace]

36. Great point!!!!

Cannot give an ounce of "but they........" to the cons!

[Hortensis]

39. How on earth do you spin this into THEIR incompetence?

And unbelievable that anyone could imagine he knows ANYTHING about how to do their jobs, much less anything they do not.

Btw, they both have personal staffs of several dozen and committee staffs of dozens more professionals. Good luck qualifying for a job assisting an assistant's assistant taking phone messages and inputing data in any of them. Chain-watching MSNBC is not a qualification.

[lame54]

3. If Pelosi is 3rd rate - where does Trump rate

[malaise]

4. Word is that he was unbelievably rude to the Speaker

- he called her a third rate politician and much more.
She says he was having a meltdown

BREAKING: Sen. Schumer says he and other Democratic leaders walked out of meeting with President Trump at White House because the president was “insulting” to Speaker Pelosi during the meeting.

Rep. Hoyer says president was making “offensive” accusations during a “diatribe.”

NBC News ✔@NBCNews

Speaker Pelosi claims that President Trump was "shaken" during the meeting by the House vote today condemning his Syria military withdrawal -- a vote that included more than 120 Republicans voting in favor.

10. He can't tolerate face to face criticism.

It's for the same reason he can't fire people face to face. If you look him in the eye he melts.

[Dennis Donovan]

16. Apparently, it was in response to the House vote condemning Syria withdrawal.

If that flipped him out (*in front of everybody*), just wait for the Impeachment vote!!!

[machoneman]

33. Moreover, it was in front of a lot of men, regardless if they were Democrats or republiscums!

Nothing like having a real tough lady read you the riot act, embarrass you and make you look like the spinless, no-balls fool you are!

[True Blue American]

20. Trump should be shaken if 120 Republicans voted

Against him. That is what, 359 votes against him.

[DENVERPOPS]

26. It's the f***ing

It's the f***ing Republicans in the House and the Senate that are allowing this and condoning this behavior. TRUMP HAS NO POWER WITHOUT COLLUDING WITH THEM..........PERIOD.
Trump is just the symptom, The Repub House members and Republican Senators are the cause that this has happened for years!

It is up to people in their states to put IMMENSE pressure on their state's Repub congress members to stop this insanity..............Esp on the Republican Senators..............

[spanone]

6. K&R...

trump=lowlife MF

[malaise]

9. The complete live unraveling is coming sooner than we thought

I do not intend to miss it

[Mike 03]

12. This does sound like he crossed a new line.

I just wish it was on camera. He needs to do this in public.

[spanone]

14. I hope it's carried live on TV. I'm so sick of this fucker and the lack of spine from republicons

[mitch96]

25. I'll bring the popcorn....

[malaise]

27. Hahahahahahaha

I switched to pistachios - after these years of madness popcorn became too fattening .

[H2O Man]

7. Recommended.

Gosh. Wouldn't expect that from a stable genius.

[Mike 03]

8. We can't allow him to speak that abusively to Pelosi.

Abusive people will say things to you in private and deny it later. Even though Schumer was there, just wait for him to deny he said it.

Am I overreacting? Sounds like he behaved shockingly, even for him. He can't speak to our leaders like that.

[MyOwnPeace]

37. NOT surprised (and I'm sure they weren't either)

IQ45 is on a downward spiral and it is going faster by the day.

There truly could be a super-explosion in the near future, especially the way the closed-door committee interviews are going.

[Gothmog]

11. trump has been showing signs of senility for a long time

[Mike 03]

13. We must have interviews with every single person who witnessed this.

We need to triangulate all the descriptions and see what is actually going on with this insane person.

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

15. Tangeranus doesn't think that Congress is coequal.

He thinks he's fucking god emperor of the country.

He praises dictators.
He lashes out at democratically elected leaders.
He's been "joking" for almost a year that he "deserves" at least two extra years in office. (You seriously think he's kidding about that? Tangeranus never laughs. He never really laughs, nor does he know how to tell a joke that doesn't punch down at someone.)

He's been calling Speaker Pelosi a traitor to this country. He wants someone to take her out. Just like he wanted someone to take Secretary Clinton out when he commented about those "2nd Amendment People". Just like he wants someone to kill Rep. Schiff.

This is, in my opinion, only the beginning of his 'meltdown'.

It's going to get worse.

[3catwoman3]

31. He thinks the whole country exists to serve him, not the...

...other way around.

His fatal stroke or heart attack is waaaaaaaaaay over due.

[UTUSN]

17. What a pile of excrement SHITLER is.

[yaesu]

18. youtube should be renamed buffertube. nt

[yaesu]

19. tRump will just run to twitter, send out his emails to his dummy supporters crying about

how he was treated and they will empty out their bank accounts to support him.

[AllyCat]

24. Toddler. He is a toddler. We keep forgetting that since a minority of US voters

But him in the WH.

[Cousin Dupree]

28. They're obviously getting waaaay under his skin. Keep it up!

[CanonRay]

30. So, Steny, wanna reconsider that no on inherent comtempt?

[yaesu]

32. tRump claims some Dems stayed at the meeting, I wonder who they were and, if true,

why they didn't back the House speaker.

[ffr]

34. All roads lead from tRump to Putin.
