The House speaker sent a letter to her congressional colleagues Wednesday night to comment on the president’s Rose Garden meltdown.

By Rebecca Shapiro

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D) sent a letter to her Congressional colleagues Wednesday night saying President Donald Trump “had a temper tantrum” earlier in the day after he walked out of infrastructure talks with party leaders and held an impromptu press conference in the White House Rose Garden.

“Sadly, the only job the president seems to be concerned with is his own,” Pelosi wrote. “He threatened to stop working with Democrats on all legislation unless we end oversight of his administration and he had a temper tantrum for us all to see.”

During the press conference, Trump stood before a sign reading “no collusion, no obstruction” as he told reporters he was “the most transparent president in history” and called on Democrats to “get these phony investigations over with.”

Trump thinks he can turn his presidency into "reality" TV. Even some of his base that still adore him can tell it is all staged bullshit.

Listening to Schumer talking about how Trump was supposed to bring an infrastucture plan he didn't have and used the tantrum to "wiggle out of it".

President Joke.
