Don’t think he cares one way or another. He likes the drama.

He is just trying to help you out, giving you the benefit of his superior knowledge of US legal procedures.

I mean... there's only a couple of options and none are good ones to be left with.

In colorful terms, Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii) summed up the party’s stance toward Trump: “If a kid is screaming for an ice cream cone, you can't give him an ice cream cone. Because if you give in, he’ll never eat his vegetables again.”

I'm impressed. That is a lot more insightful and sophisticated political analysis than I would have thought the Democrats capable of.

Democrats give in like nobody else on the planet. They're bound to cave sooner or later. So Ely when is this going to end now? You had one swing and a miss I'm curious when the next swing is

I would assume tomorrow...

The longer this goes on the more Trump suffers. I get you think its hilarious I got the ending of this wrong but I thought the President would at least be smart enough to know he's lost this battle.

I was wrong on that front. He's dumber than I thought. You win.

He can put it off for a short time and try to make it look like the Dems are forcing him into it. One possibility that seems likely is that Trump will put something for the Dems on the table in exchange for the money he wants for the wall, and offer to sit down with them for further negotiations.

The Dem position is that Trump needs to open the government and then we will sit down for negotiations. They aren't likely to change that. Trump can then blame the lack of negotiations on the Dems and declare a National Emergency.
