totally appropriate. it was just three weeks ago the president of the united states went to a war zone, iraq, during a shutdown to visit troops. the goal to obtain intelligence from the front lines. did the president consider that to be a public relations event? i don't think so. and then this line. obviously if you'd like to make your journey by flying commercial that would certainly be your prerogative. t it is absurd to say the speaker should travel that way, but if this president believes pelosi should travel commercial to afghanistan, then why is his wife flying on a government plane tonight to mar-a-lago? i'm not making this up. melania trump just flew on the plane you see there to palm beach. you see the tail. it's not commercial. we're in the middle of a shutdown. she's not going to a war zone. she's going to mar-a-lago. and this entire later is also a breach of national security.
