Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump said in impromptu remarks Wednesday that he told Democrats at the White House he couldn't work with them while they were pursuing investigations into him and his administration.

The Rose Garden speech came after an abbreviated meeting with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer who were there to discuss a bipartisan infrastructure spending package.

He said during the meeting with Democrats that he couldn't work with them until their investigations are over.

Earlier Wednesday, Pelosi had told reporters Trump was engaged in a "cover-up."

31. ALL governments work on massive mushroom farming to various degrees...

You DO understand the philosophical concept of government mushroom farming, don't you?
KEEP THEM IN THE DARK AND THROW SHIT ON THEM!
Agreeably, it is a neo-Machiavellian concept.

4. And then

He sat in a corner sucking his thumb and wishing for his mommy to appear.

5. King kong ain't got nothing on me....

[BeyondGeography]

6. Good, so we can focus on impeachment now

No point in legislating, not that there was one anyway. What are McConnell’s plans for the Equality Act?

7. lolol

I could be equally angry, but I CHOOSE to recognize his fear and desperation and instead,

[Generic Other]

8. When did he work with Democrats?

I am trying to recall. I'm drawing a blank.

12. +1

[Hugin]

9. But, investigations are a big part of their job as the House.

Y'know, oversight.

If he couldn't stand the scrutiny he should've stayed out of the kitchen.

RESIGN! Save yourself.

[gratuitous]

14. It's been barely four months since Democrats have had the power to oversee things

Donald doesn't seem to be doing very well with that.

10. Fuck off, asshole

[ooky]

11. What a surprise.

We have the mental equivalency of a 12 year brat squatting in the White House, doing nothing. What a joke of a presidency.

[Pantagruel]

13. He's now the "Extortionist in Chief"

That boy is getting very scared.

[TheBlackAdder]

15. Well, release your taxes and allow folks to testify. That'll speed things up.

23. The worst (or maybe best?) Tammy Faye impersonation ever!

A nice touch with the teary eye shadow.

17. Walls crumbling around you there, big guy?

Judge Mehta's ruling on Mazar, Justice backpedals and agrees to release redacted portions of SC Report to Congress, Micheal Cohen's phone search warrant shows records of over a thousand contacts with principal Russians dated after election day.

[smirkymonkey]

18. Whaaaaaaaaaaa!

[Zambero]

19. Yet another coverup tactic

Since it's all about ME and not the good of the country, you guys had better stop investigating ME, or you can forget about less-important stuff like governance and legislation to address critical infrastructure needs.

[GusBob]

20. If there's no time needed for legislation isnt there more time for investigation?

and aint this more obstruction?

[Takket]

21. Fine with me

I don’t know why we were even thinking of giving him a bipartisan win on anything. Better this way.

[Wounded Bear]

24. Because Nancy and Chuck knew Trump had nothing...

and that he would find a way and an excuse not to do anything.

This does two things.

1. It proves that the Dems are willing to work on this and they have an actual plan.

2. It proves that Trump and the Repubs got nothing and are just obstructing.

Now it's up to the media to show this in the proper light.

[Takket]

25. Media: "BOTH SIDES!!!"

[Gothmog]

22. the poor baby is having a temper tantrum

[Renew Deal]

26. This sounds like a good deal

[mitch96]

27. Are we in a constitutional crisis yet? nt

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

30. Then he should resign
