White House slams Dem ‘pettiness’ as Pelosi, Schumer pull out of meeting
2017-11-29
[FOXNEWS] The White House on Tuesday shot back at the top congressional Democrats -- Sen. Chuck Schumer
Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower. Senate minority leader as of 2017.
and Rep. Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. Formerly Speaker of the House, but it's not her fault they lost. Really. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace...
-- for pulling out of a White House meeting with President Trump, saying the president wants them to "put aside their pettiness" and "get to work."

Schumer, the Senate minority leader, and Pelosi, the House minority leader, cancelled their meeting with Trump and top congressional Republicans after the president hinted that any attempt to reach a bipartisan deal to avoid a government shutdown would be thwarted by Democrats’ desire to include immigration reform and tax increases.

"It’s disappointing that Senator Schumer and Leader Pelosi are refusing to come to the table and discuss urgent issues," said White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders. "The president’s invitation to the Democrat leaders still stands and he encourages them to put aside their pettiness, stop the political grandstanding, show up and get to work. These issues are too important."

#1  They don't want compromise only surrender. Follows the pattern of every one of their special interest groups.
