We haven’t missed it. And what’s the political upside for Trump giving in?

There’s none and how to keep the government open is now the Rats’ problem.

“What’s the political upside for Trump giving in?

That’s why the media is out there working overtime framing the issue as gubmint shutdown, not about illegal immigration. If this article is true, it appears that the democraps have negotiated entirely with themselves and are acting like the President doesn’t matter...they think the old rules are in place and they are going to push him around. Good luck with that. They are in for a long 2 years. The GOPe hopefully realize that their future is tied to the President’s and the Senate never comes close an override, let alone even allowing the House plan to even come up for a vote - hoping McConnell is telling them it is a non-starter - just like Harry Reid bottled up GOP House legislation. I am for deadlocked government, wish it would happen more often, especially when any democrap legislation is offered.

If a bill comes to Trump with no wall funding, in my dreams Trump would do it publicly and before he signs it, play 3 times a montage of democraps stating their past positions on against illegal immigration... Bill Clinton, the WV Senator snake Monchan-BS-er, and end it with Schumer’s illegal aliens / wall speech. Veto it and send it back.

The Democrats need government to advance their agenda. They will cave when the shutdown starts hurting them.
