President Trump just pulled out the trump card on Nancy Pelosi after she asked for him to postpone the State of the Union address because of the shutdown and security concerns; he postponed her 7 day trip overseas for the exact same reason, Gillette is getting backlash for charging women more for similar razors to mens, and more.
Government Shutdown:
President Trump just trumped Nancy Pelosi and “postponed” her trip to Brussels, Egypt & Afghanistan after she asked him to “postpone” the State of the Union because of the shutdown. He did say she was more than welcome to fly commercial on the trip if she would like. hahahahahaha

The media and left are attacking Trump for this move- saying that he himself went to visit the troops during the shutdown. The difference is he is the Commander in Chief and she is not.

They are also attacking the President for sending the first lady on a vacation to Florida just hours after he grounded Pelosi’s trip… but the first lady isn’t integral to opening back up the government.
It was noted even earlier this week that President Trump is being selective about trips taken during the shutdown.
