The GOPee STILL doesn’t want a Wall, much less border control, Visa overstay enforcement, an end to Chain Migration, nor an end to the low IQ immigration lottery.

Pressure is going to build up on Nanzi’s side . It’s RATs who are hurt most by the shutdown. Cher may not be the brightest of bulbs but she understands what is at stake if Nanzi chooses this hill to die on .

I’m going to visit a Chevy dealership this afternoon and I’m going to demand that they hand over the keys of a new Corvette.

When they ask me to pay, I’m going to tell them that I negotiate like a democrat, and I will be reaching out to them within the next month to work out some ideas, but we can’t negotiate until I get my car first.

Democrats, who call the wall immoral and have refused to negotiate over border security until the government reopens.

Do these people really think we are so stupid as to not understand that if the government reopens, there will be nothing to negotiate !

Yup. Same scenario I see democrats spouting on tv all day.

Open the government and THEN we will negotiate.
Ask Reagan how that worked out.

McConnell can now make the fight very public and criticize Democrats not willing to vote to end debate on the motion to proceed as he takes the plan to the floor this week.

“Open the government and THEN we will negotiate.”

~~~

You don’t have to be a game theorist or political strategist to recognize that this isn’t negotiating. It’s common sense to anyone that it’s just stonewalling.

Expecting concessions while offering nothing in return is not a negotiation.

If the parties were reversed, the media would be slaughtering the republicans for acting like petulant babies.

If Democrats don’t cooperate to end debate on motion to proceed to bill to re-open gov’t,:

McConnell will need to file cloture Tuesday to cut off debate on the motion to proceed which would not ripen for a vote until Thursday.

Democrats are out there blasting President Trump for "using the government as hostages" for his own negotiating.

The truth is that it's the Democrats who strapped the bomb onto the government last December when they stalled on voting on the Ryan funding bill, knowing that the shutdown would hit in January when Pelosi takes over.

It's the Democrats who took the government hostage since December, and are trying to blame Trump now for not agreeing to their terms to free the hostage.

The GOPee [and Ditch] had two years to get the job done.

They did not, on purpose.

Ditch is putting on a scene from one of his favorite Kabuki shows.

True, but Trump is still slapping them down at every turn so it’s a win.

A deal just requires that you understand what is important to the other side--then offer the necessary carrots and sticks as needed.

Carrots are preferable, but sticks should always be in the tool kit.
