....But they really want a do-over! You can’t investigate and legislate simultaneously - it just doesn’t work that way. You can’t go down two tracks at the same time. Let Chuck, Nancy, Jerry, Adam and all of the rest finish playing their games.... — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 22, 2019

Trump abruptly ended an infrastructure meeting at the White House after Pelosi accused him of a "cover up" earlier Wednesday morning, pointing to his administration's handling of various congressional probes.

The president said he would not continue to work with Democrats until they stopped their investigations into his administration.

After ending the meeting, Trump appeared in the White House Rose Garden where he urged Democrats to “get these phony investigations over with.”

“I’ve said from the beginning that you probably can’t go down two tracks,” Trump said. “You can go down the investigation track or you can go down the investment track … We’re going to go down one track at a time,” he said.

Schumer and Pelosi condemned the president's move.

“To watch what happened in the White House would make your jaw drop,” Schumer told reporters. “We came here very seriously.”

“I was prepared to give him a 35-page plan detailing this in all the areas I mentioned and more that had the broad support of Senate and House Democrats,” Schumer added.

Pelosi told reporters after blasting Trump's behavior: “In any event, I pray for the president of the United States and I pray for the United States of America."

The Democratic leader has previously said that she has prayed for Trump. Recounting her first meeting with him after he took office, Pelosi said he was "insecure" about election vote totals.

"I prayed for him,” she said in 2017. “But more importantly, I prayed for the United States of America.”
