I’m not a big fan of Trump and his shenanigans. But Trump knows how to push the Democrats buttons and push them into a feeding frenzy of themselves.
Rep Emanuel Clever (D) Missouri decides to abandon the House Chair and walk out!

Pelosi on the flr: There is no place anywhere for the president’s words which are not only divisive but dangerous and have legitimized and increased fear and hatred of new Americans and people of color

Pelosi appears to have left the floor..which is a violation of House Rules themselves when someone’s words are taken down. That’s partly could be why this is taking so long. This is not just a rank and file member. This is the House Speaker.

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) just abandoned the House chair: “I dare anybody to look at any of the footage and see if there was any unfairness. But unfairness is not enough because we want to just fight. I abandon the chair.” https://t.co/D985ZGwKuS

Things have gotten really weird on the Hse flr. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-MO) was presiding over the House. And then he told the House he was trying to make a fair ruling aboubt Pelosi but people weren’t cooperating. So Cleaver then just said “I abandon the chair” and LEFT!

Correction: The House of Representatives is Speakerless, @SpeakerPelosi is nowhere to be found and @repcleaver basically just said, f**k this s**t and stormed out.

Cleaver as he left the flr, refusing to preside any more: I came in here trying to do this in a fair way. We could be in here on another motion to take down words of a friend of min.

Dems continue to scour through the rule book to get out of the mud…they can’t seem to find one that will work. https://t.co/wpTxVnQeqE

Brilliant @RepDougCollins is having everyone go on the record to vote against their own protocol, Democrats are hell bent on making sure “racist” makes it on Congressional Record, next level identity politics right here. https://t.co/U2Idi2lFWE

A) Here’s what went down on the Hse flr regarding Pelosi’s language. GOP GA Rep Collins accused Pelosi of breaking Hse rules. So he demanded her words “be taken down.” This is the Congressional equivalent of being pulled over for speeding.
