If President Trump has postponed Speaker Pelosi's trip to a war zone, surely Secretary Mnuchin's delegation to the World Economic Forum won't leave for Davos. Right?

I mean it's obvious he's being petty and it's this par for the course for him.

I keep thinking about this point @maggieNYT made yesterday. Trump spent 24 hours searching for something he could take from Pelosi, and could only land on something she won’t bat an eye over losing.

She doesn’t need him. And that is the biggest position of strength anyone ever has with him. …

The CODEL to Afghanistan included a required stop in Brussels for pilot rest. In Brussels, the delegation was scheduled to meet with top NATO commanders, U.S. military leaders and key allies–to affirm the United States’ ironclad commitment to the NATO alliance. (1/4)

WH officials, including Mulvaney, began discussing canceling Pelosi’s trip this a.m., two people said. They felt caught off guard by her letter and POTUS has been frustrated by coverage, asking why it looked like Dems had upper hand. Aides agreed this was the perfect response.

That doesn't mean ISIS did it.

True. But you shouldn't also CLAIM that Isis has been defeated either. Especially after an attack like this. Pence is an idiot so doesn't surprise me.

One extra Dem in the House? Sounds good to me.
