Since she has to stand up in an attempt to project power or assert dominance, she loses and confirms that Trump is living rent free in her and every other Progressheviks' head.

So many people live in Dump's head, there's no room for anything else. He regularly gets in twitter fights with the likes of Chrissy Teigen. The guy has the mentality of a 13 year old girl.

Trump made it clear from the beginning that he didn't want this stinking meeting & proceeded to lay waste to the whole thing, then claim victory-

“They said you wanted this meeting,” Mr. Trump told the congressional leaders. “I didn’t want this meeting, but I’m doing it.”

You guys are reading too much into a still image which captures peoples' posture and facial expressions in one moment in time over the course of a meeting which probably lasted at least 30 minutes. Two seconds later, it may have been Pelosi sitting down, her head turned downwards. Don't waste your time analyzing this kind of photo.

As to who is telling the truth about what actually transpired, Pelosi is. Trump lies about virtually everything. He almost literally never tells the truth. Pro tip: If there is ever a dispute between Trump and someone else about anything, the other person is telling the truth. The odds of it being otherwise are less than 1%.

This is what brandonbullshitter is defending...
Pelosi mentioned the House vote and Sen. Chuck Schumer, the Democratic leader, started to read the president a quote from former Defense Secretary James Mattis on the need to keep U.S. troops in Syria to prevent a resurgent of Islamic State fighters.

But Trump cut Schumer off, complaining that Mattis was “the world’s most overrated general. You know why? He wasn’t tough enough.” Trump went on, “I captured ISIS.”

Pelosi explained to Trump that Russia has always wanted a “foothold in the Middle East,” and now it has one with the U.S. withdrawal, according to a senior Democratic aide who was also granted anonymity.

“All roads with you lead to Putin,” the speaker said.

Then it began.

Trump said to Pelosi, “I hate ISIS more than you do.”

Pelosi responded, “You don’t know that.”

Schumer intervened at one point and said, “Is your plan to rely on the Syrians and the Turks?”

Trump replied, “Our plan is to keep the American people safe.”

Pelosi said: “That’s not a plan. That’s a goal.”

Trump turned to Pelosi and complained about former President Barack Obama’s “red line” over Syria. According to Schumer, he then called her “a third-rate politician.”

At that point, the genteel Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, the House Majority Leader, interjected, “This is not useful.”

I find the "I hate ISIS more than you do!" quote to be the funniest thing of this whole exchange. Like what the fuck does that even mean and why does that fucking matter AT ALL? He just sounds like my 4 year old son saying "no YOU!"

Meh. I feel quite often single photos can contain details and subtle context that matter. Especially in this case, where we already have similar corroborating examples of people's expressions and body language after being subjected to Trump's particular brand of bullshit and ignorance.

Nixon getting off the plane in Beijing. Reagan in a suit greeting a homely Gorbachev on the steps of the White House. Hell the Kim Jong Un pic of him on a white horse that a coworker of mine was joking about yesterday. "How'd they even get him up there? "That poor horse." He went for the disregard, thought it was just another 'stud shoot' for a pudgy dictator wanting to look manly. After a quick rundown on the significance of Paekju and grandpa's horse, he wasn't amused anymore. Not exactly the same thing, but having a single pic prompt a self-admitted Trump voter to learn more about a foreign country didn't feel like a waste of time to me. Just saying.

Absolutely correct, well said. Trump is a pathological liar. Passed the 13,000 mark recently I heard.

trump would be a joke if he wasn't a head of state. With access to the nukes he's scary and I wouldn't put it past him to launch a strike if he loses the election.
I don't believe he will be permitted to launch a nuclear strike just because he's having a tantrum. It doesn't work like that. I don't know the underpinnings but I've asked the question here in this forum and the answer was no, he can't.

I'm glad you remember the Progresshevik's Revolution and what happened to the Tsar and his family and their followers!

It was just like before he was president in a debate with Clinton, she said that Trump was Putin's puppet and his base retort was "no, you're the puppet!". Like come on, have some originality with your comebacks!

Yeah, the same way Al Capone was living rent free in Elliot Ness’s head.

She's the House Majority Leader. The House voted to condemn Trump's Syrian coin-toss, with dozens of Republicans joining Pelosi's party.

And she's a "third-rate politician" according to the Traitor-in-Chief?

I'm running out of pity for those who still believe Trump's drivel, because they require so much pity.

He's not a witty person, to say the least.

You are mistaken. The exact quote is, "she's a third grade politician".

I shit you not!

Yes -- I'd heard it both ways, and either way -- he's throwing a pre-school tantrum beneath the dignity of a 3rd-grader..

But -- again -- the body language of those sitting around the table pretty much confirms Pelosi's narrative as to what transpired.

I'm very interested in myths related to our politics and our news-feeds. I've always attempted to apply certain tests to a determination as to who's dissembling and who's telling the truth. After a certain point where you've made enough tests and cross-verifications that keep coming up with consistent results, you might conclude that you don't need to investigate further about the accounts given by various actors. Obviously, I accept Pelosi's (and Schumer's) account of what happened during the meeting.

And if you ask me? About Pelosi? The congresswoman that Repubs love to hate? I admire that tough old broad. History will prove her to be a hero-ine.

I tend to believe that but I wouldn't put it past him trying even if he's lead out in a straitjacket afterwards.

People seem to think tghese people who are responsible for turning the keys or pressing the bottoms for a nuclear strike are robots who will act without question when told to do something!
I can tell you that just is not true and I would be willing to bet that they would listen your a General ot somebody else before they would act with just the president ordering a nuclear strike!!
