Nancy Pelosi then scheduled the trip through commercial aircraft. Drew Hammill who is Nancy Pelosi's spokesman stated that diplomatic security services were alerted to increased threats since President Trump announced the trip. A person off the street knows that you never announce that anyone is going into a battle zone. No one announced his trip to Afghanistan. That is done only if you hope the enemy will take care of them.
The morning of the trip it was learned the administration leaked news of the change of flight. In the interest of safety for participants, flight crew, and the plane, Nancy Pelosi cancelled the flight. This is behavior which should be beneath the dignity of the White House. This is behavior common to grade school yard bullies.
Inglorious President Trump needs to remember that he is supposed to be a leader of a country. It is not about him. His personal wishes and desires do not belong in the White House. Trying to get rid of Nancy Pelosi in a war zone has ramifications he probably has not thought of. Besides, it would not get him a border wall. Our inglorious leader needs to stop being a school yard bully.
