Of course it is, why offer the same deal when they come crawling back? It's going to get lower and lower each time they have to go back to the Dems because they failed to get Trump.

CNN: Trump lashed out at Whitaker after explosive Cohen revelations
Washington (CNN) - President Donald Trump has at least twice in the past few weeks vented to his acting attorney general, angered by federal prosecutors who referenced the President's actions in crimes his former lawyer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.
Trump was frustrated, the sources said, that prosecutors Matt Whitaker oversees filed charges that made Trump look bad. None of the sources suggested that the President directed Whitaker to stop the investigation, but rather lashed out at what he felt was an unfair situation.
The first known instance took place when Trump made his displeasure clear to acting attorney general Matt Whitaker after Cohen pleaded guilty November 29 to lying to Congress about a proposed Trump Tower project in Moscow. Whitaker had only been on the job a few weeks following Trump's firing of Jeff Sessions.
Over a week later, Trump again voiced his anger at Whitaker after prosecutors in Manhattan officially implicated the President in a hush-money scheme to buy the silence of women around the 2016 campaign -- something Trump fiercely maintains isn't an illegal campaign contribution. Pointing to articles he said supported his position, Trump pressed Whitaker on why more wasn't being done to control prosecutors in New York who brought the charges in the first place, suggesting they were going rogue.

The prerequisite assumption here is that Trump knows how to read
Politico is being sloppy. The 1.3 (and 1.6) is for non wall or existing fencing. To be fair they referenced it earlier in the article.
All fucking smiles and "suck it libs" after the Kavanaugh hearings - but oh what a surprise that this scorpion just stung me!

Today, I sent a letter to @TheJusticeDept demanding that Acting Attorney General Whitaker come before the House Judiciary Committee so that the American people can finally get some answers. This is not our first time asking politely, but we will not accept 'No' for an answer.

I hope this turns out as well as the last one. I'd love to see Trump ended up looking like a wimp again and giving the democrats what they want.
Luckily Trump didn't say it was his shutdown 27 times on live TV last week.
I find it amusing that one Republican tried to do the SCHUMER SHUTDOWN when Republicans don't seem to even know who he is most of the time.

Q: Any update?
Ernst: "There's been no update, we'll be notified when there are votes."
Q: So the shutdown will happen.
Ernst: "I don't know that, I don't know that, don't know that...."
Q: Well, you have adjourned...
Ernst: "Don't know that..."

That's right, Mitch, we're offering 1.3 billion. You heard me correctly, 1.1 billion. So let's move ahead on this vote for a CR with 800 million in border money. Let's go, 650 million in the bill, time to vote.
Chuck Todd: "Gosh golly, why didn't the Democrats do more to help out?!"
CNN: "Will this shutdown merely hurt the Democrats? Or will it destroy them?! These are the only two outcomes."
Not particularly. Trump has his taking the blame all over the airwaves for the last week, and a new congress comes in two weeks anyway.
The art of the deal in action. Marvel at the Orange shitholes master plan.
Nooooooooooooooo NOT AGAIN
I was joking about the media reaction folks :D
I think the biggest factor is everyone knows what it's about. The wall. So who you'll blame for the shutdown will probably depend on how you feel about that.
When the GOP controls both chambers of congress and the presidency, no less lol
It's actually the third shutdown this year lmao
1st one Jan 20 for 3 days over DACA
2nd one Feb 9 for 1 day, again over DACA
So as Trump said, a shutdown makes you a weak leader, so, he's already 3 X as weak as Obama! And we still have two more year!
Renaming fucking post offices! I didn't expect it to be that stupid but somehow it was! I don't know why I haven't learned yet.
