There are two prominent opinions on why Pelosi is attempting to stop the state of the union address:

1. Ruth Bader Ginsburg is dead and they don't want to show an empty seat. Instead, they want to make her one of those fake Democrat voters, who votes at the Supreme Court, rather than at the polls.

I gotta say, the precedent for that has without question been set.

2. Pelosi is doing a power play, to see if she can out-power POTUS. If she does, she's going to turn into a velociraptor and attempt to eat him alive. Trump had better not back down from this, and instead do the state of the union from the senate or oval office.

Trump's twitter is again locked up from where I sit, so I can't see if he made any responses. Certainly any response from Trump won't show up anywhere other than Twitter unless a flake somewhere figured out how to turn it against him.

State of the Union postponed? NOT HARDLY.

Pelosi is demanding Trump postpone the state of the union until after the shut down, citing "security concerns". What Pelosi is STUPID about is the fact that Trump has his own security forces available. He does not need the secret service. Pelosi can, however, block Trump from access to the podium from where it is normally delivered. However, that won't stop Trump from delivering it from a different location.

Pelosi can be treated like a yapping toy poodle with this one. Hopefully Trump will do exactly that.
