    After 2018, where Democrats in the House earned 9.8 million more votes than Republicans in the House, are you really going to keep tossing out that tired argument that polling is "oversampling" democrats?

    There are just more left leaning individuals in America these days. Deal with it.

    I'm surprised by such a pointless reply.

    There's more ballot harvesting taking place today by Democrats.

    The Democrats crossed the line in California when they hired illegal aliens to harvest ballots.

    Shameless Nancy Pelosi Lied About the Secret Service and Doesn’t Even Care.....

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi lied about the Secret Service yesterday in an effort to score political points against President Trump.

    Pelosi asserted the State of the Union Address, which she invited President Trump to give on January 29, should be postponed due to the Secret Service being unable to provide adequate protection due to the government shutdown.

    After the statement, the Secret Service pushed back on Pelosi's comments and said agents are completely prepared to deliver the required security for the SOTU. They've also been preparing for the event for months and long before the government shutdown started in December.

    It turns out Pelosi, whose shameless political antics have been on full display since retaking the Speaker's gavel earlier this month, didn't even check with the Secret Service before making her bogus statements about their current capabilities. Further, when called out for lying about the agency, she said she "doesn't care."

    Meanwhile, Pelosi continues to say President Trump's calls for border security are "immoral." The second highest ranking Democrat in the House, Steny Hoyer, disagrees......snip~

    Every time fact are presented to the public support for the wall goes up.

    That's why Pelosi was the 1st SoH partisan enough to even contemplate stopping a SoU address. Because facts aren't her ally.

    They BOTH will go into the historical record. You do know it has no force in law. He doesn't even have to submit a written form it is done out of courtesy. He could call up the leaders on the phone and say, everything looks good see ya later, and that would be it. And I have reason to believe that every President has at some point varied from the teleprompter text to add or extend a remark.

    Pelosi getting caught lying and not negotiating.....feel free to check out those reports. Oh and Independents are increasing in support too.

    Wouldn't want you to forget that part.

    Another couple of weeks and the lefts fairweather voters will break to Trump side on this issue.

    Oh and btw Pops I don't have reading comprehension problem. Unlike most leftists I didn't get a public education.

    Trump almost fell for Schumer's scam. It was a good thing that there were seasoned politicians around to save him from the humiliation.

    Why do Dems talk about who got more total votes in the House...do you all not realize how the House is elected and why that is such a meaningless point? Most people in American ID as conservative.

    The numbers are still trending against Trump and the Republicans. Your poor reading comprehension notwithstanding.

    Yes, because the last four weeks have gone so well for you. I am sure that once federal workers miss another pay check, national parks get shut down due to irreperable damage, food inspections stop, TSA workers go on strike, and tens of thousands more are forced to work for free, that the numbers will definitely reverse for you and trump.

    Sure. By demonstrating a total unwillingness to negotiate, they are showing that there is no bargain that they will accept.
