Trump offers compromise to end government shutdown; Dems reject deal
NY Post ^ | January 19, 2019 | Post Staff Report

However, Democrats in Congress had issued statements rejecting the deal as details of it leaked before Trump’s speech.

“Unfortunately, initial reports make clear that his proposal is a compilation of several previously rejected initiatives, each of which is unacceptable and in total, do not represent a good faith effort to restore certainty to people’s lives,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a statement.

President Trump was practically begging. He offered so much that there’s almost nothing left to give. If they reject this, he better do the EO. Like he should’ve done when Nancy first refused to let anyone sit down and discuss all issue.

Amend the DACA EO to include a wall.

Nice picture of Nancy, it should be titled State of the Union Address, “dead on arrival.” She looks at peace with her eyes closed.

He should now rescind all offers, terminate everybody he can, and declare a national emergency to build the Sal with the military.

Nancy will lose support before Trump. The best part is Trump doesn’t need support except to prevent a veto override.

Trump turned up the heat on Nancy and Chuck today. He still holds the national emergency card and the reduction in force RIF card is still in the hip pocket.

Nancy will never get an government plane to use going forward either.

”… House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a statement."

I suspect that Pelosi’s opinion on Trump’s offer is the only one that counted.

The Dems have offered nothing, no negotiating! Open the Government and we will talk is not negotiating! So we should demand to hear the Dems’ offer. Government stays closed until they sit down and negotiate a solution. Our side has offered multiple times, the Dems nothing, always NO. So now we need to take the position, if you want the Governmental open the Dems have to sit down and negotiate a solution because our side has done everything to meet the Dems half way. Ask the Dems why Government is closed, it’s their fault!

President Pelosi looks ready for a nap as she’s out of coke at the moment.

Seriously, they actually didn’t listen and per their plan, no matter how demented Pelozi’s statement was well-written, and it wouldn’t have mattered what PDJT said. They have placed their best, and I believe they have underestimated PDJT to their demise.
