WaPo: Trump announces deal for government to reopen for three weeks, ending longest shutdown; no money for his border wall
- Thread starter WedgeX
- Start date
I think she's supposed to be on Bill Maher tonight. Should be entertaining. And by entertaining I mean nauseating.
Democrats should give him nothing. Just the original amount, the 1 billion for border security. Fuck him and his never-to-exist monument to racism.
After all the angst over a blue wave and shit it's so nice to see the Democrats successfully wrecking Trump's shit with the power they have.
On one hand. People will get paid, agent orange takes a humiliating L.
On the other, were going to be in the same situation in a month, and the GOP might have more luck blaming Dems with the "the shutdown began when the GOP controlled everything " narrative gone.

It's breathtaking how effortlessly she and Pelosi batted his balls around the court.
And what exactly does he think a three week reprieve is going to get him when we were already heading for week 6 of a full-blown shutdown that got him nothing?
I usually think this way, but hopefully the wall/shutdown thing has been drilled so deeply into the public's consciousness that they won't forget that soon.
Makes me think of this song, which is doubly appropriate considering she represents San Francisco:
Nah, she'll offer him the 5.7 billion for border security with no wall stipulation and he'll either take it and keep the government open till at least oct or he'll refuse it and make the Democrats seem reasonable on border security.
I will never understand why Trump listens to Coulter and Rush so much, he seems like the type of guy who doesn't listen to anyone and thinks he's the best at everything, and then there's these two that he would fucking jump off a cliff for.
The saddest part of this mess is that Trump is dictating how senators vote. Almost every GOP senator voted against this bill yesterday. Now they'll probably vote it through unanimously.
That's not how it's supposed to work, assholes. Trump should've had to veto these bills.

Coulter and Rush (along with Hannity) are the backbone of the far right that makes up a solid portion of Trump's base. If he betrays them, they will say he has sold out to Washington, and they'll latch onto another messiah. That 35-40% approval rating he hovers around is only because of them singing his praises non-stop, if they leave he drops into the 20s.
Because they are the personification of his base in the media. He's also extremely unintelligent, so the idea that he has an original thought as to what to do is simply laughable. He's only ever said he's the best at this or that without actually knowing anything. If he was never born into money, he wouldn't be able to run a gas station effectively. He needs these people on his side, and suggesting what he does next. Lord knows he's not paying attention to intelligence briefings and advisers that could steer him much more effectively.
