If you actually had negotiated anything, you wouldn’t be so ready to ignore the leverage in hand. OR, you take the first crumb your counterparty drops and walk away happy while the counterparty laughs their a$$ off.

To what "leverage" are you referring? It doesn't do much good to have 50 "Republicans" when both we and the Democrats know there are enough who will cross to approve Ukraine aid.

I no point in handing them a political victory to crow about by fighting a very public battle we know we will lose ahead of time.

I mean, think logically for a second. If there were enough GOP votes/will to hold legislative items hostage for the wall, don't you think we would have done it at some point during Trump's term??
