Said Trump: “I can get Nancy Pelosi as many votes as she wants in order for her to be Speaker of the House. She deserves this victory, she has earned it — but there are those in her party who are trying to take it away. She will win!”

failing yet again. Trump continues his losing streak.

[Fiendish Thingy]

4. Impotent Narcissist says what? Nt

[hlthe2b]

5. Any Dems taking anything Trump says seriously in his attempts to manipulate...

seriously need to rethink.

If he thinks this is going to all of a sudden make Dems NOT want to support Pelosi, he's got another thing coming. F off, Trump.

6. Fuck you Drumpf, you Nazi. n/t

[underpants]

7. Yeah Trump, yo just great at that. The irony of "Orange" county

[workinclasszero]

9. There's that Trump magic in action!

[groundloop]

12. That is a most beautiful map !!!!!!

[Botany]

8. Good God in butter the man is barking at the moon fucking nuts.

Nancy Pelosi being Speaker of the House is a fait accompli.

But on second thought yes Donny you did help Nancy get back her speakership
because millions and millions of people turned out to vote because they don't
like you.

10. Proves it again.................

Mark Twain put it well .. “it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to talk and remove all doubt.”

11. Fuck you trump!

This motherfucker is always trying to make something about himself.

[Maeve]

13. Troll-in-Chief eom

[groundloop]

14. I'm not sure if Tiny is attempting to divide Democrats or if this is just another insane rant

In any case we won't let these distractions deter us.

[rurallib]

16. Can members of the Duma vote for Speaker now?

figured Trump is talking about the country he owes allegiance to

[onlyadream]

17. He already did it.

On November 6th. Suck it, Trump!

[Nitram]

18. The truth is, Don's not a Republican. But I wouldn't trust him under any circumstances. He even

breaks deals he's made with the GOP.

[Leith]

19. His Tiny Little Brain Thinks That

Pelosi would then find herself indebted to him.

[mastermind]

20. a guy who has been a con artist all of his life

has mastered that art but to all thinking Americans he is just a grifter.

[sueh]

21. He's delusional. I can't wait for Democrats to begin their investigations.

[hexola]

22. "Trust Pelosi"

[hexola]

23. Trump likes being on the winning side

Apologies to Mitch McConnell...

Winners make policy, losers go home

[Downtown Hound]

24. LOL. Whatever.

Just another way for him to take credit for something that would have happened anyways.

[marble falls]

25. He thinks he's using reverse psychology. He needs to get back in his own lane.

[FakeNoose]

28. He wants to repay her the favor

Remember when Nancy did all the campaigning for Trump in 2016?
Neither do I.

[Johnyawl]

26. He needs Pelosi to be the Speaker...

...so that he has a female foe to bash. Hillary isn't in a position of power, and not running, so she's wearing thin as a target. Pelosi is the perfect target in their mind, female, from San Francisco, he needs her as the enemy to gin up his mostly male, rural, southern base.

The republicans ran tons of ads against Pelosi during the election, trying to tie all the Dem candidates to her. They thought that was a winning strategy. lol They got their asses kicked. And they're stupid enough to think it'll work this time. Good luck with that. She's gonna spank his butt and send the man-baby to his room without his dinner.

27. Yet again another attempt to steal the thunder from someone else and make it all about him

[Arazi]

29. This rang my alarm bells. Does Trump also have kompromat on Dems?

How can he be so confident he can persuade Dems to vote for her?

Anyone else get an ominous shiver, especially since Trump just had a meeting with Putin in Paris?

[Hekate]

31. Meh. He means no such thing. He sows Chaos. nt

[Hekate]

30. The Mad King throws poison in the well....
