Read About Ivanka Trump's Plotting To Return To The White House On THE DAILY

Trump knew that he got owned by Pelosi and Schumer, which is why he stormed out of the Oval Office and threw his papers down after they left.

Eli Stokles of The LA Times reported on MSNBC’s Hardball:

I think afterward the president based on reporting I am getting out of the White House, the president was frustrated after the meeting. Aides briefed him going in, aides are aware, sometimes you brief a president, he doesn’t always follow the plan. This was supposed to be a short photo op, supposed to give a picture of the president working with the Democrats, incoming how the majority, trying to get a deal done. And then they’re supposed to leave. The president likes to sometimes keep cameras in the room. Pelosi was trying to help him say we’ll talk when the cameras left, but it sort of spiraled out of control.

When the president left the Oval after Pelosi and Schumer, the number of people saw him storm out of the oval, walked into a room just off the oval office and had in his hand a folder of briefing papers and scattered them out of frustration, threw them across the room and expressed frustration to people that were present, mainly with Chuck Schumer, his old New York sparring buddy he felt got the better of him, goaded him into a remark how Schumer wouldn’t make eye contact with the president, was actually looking back at cameras as he was making comments to the president, but directing comments to the camera. It frustrated the president more than what worried his aides which was comments he made, taking ownership of the shutdown.

Trump Can’t Handle Being Challenged

Donald Trump believes his self-created mythology, and he can’t handle being challenged. Trump had never been on the White House stage before with the opposition party, and he got owned by Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer. The Democrats are not winging it, as Trump likes to do. They have a clear strategy and plan, and Schumer was talking to the camera because he was sending a message to the American people.

Trump threw a fit because he is being told no.

There will be no money for the wall.

The meeting was a preview of Trump’s future. The free ride is over. The American people put Democrats in power to check this president, and reality check him is exactly what they did today.
