Watched all 7 minutes of that and it was delightful. The body language is priceless. Frantic gesturing by Pelosi - slouching, squirming Chucky Schumer and rigid as a post, Pence.
/Trumpzilla wins again!
I just watched the whole thing....lets see the actual data!! I want to see the real results because they ALL agree that if the results are good, they would all agree with the Wall. LOL!
What a spanking.
