“Trump had 2 years with a republican congress and did what about his wall?”

Worked his 72 year old butt off during the midterms to get the required votes.

What have you ever done?

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Trump had 2 yrs of congress under rino ryan, no name, flake, turtle.

Give him a break, he’s accomplised more for this country in his 2 yrs (in spite of the money grubbing resistance, than any president in modern history.

IMO

In their rebuttal, the Democrats offered a new plan, Plan 9.

It's "giving it all away" because he put DACA and amnesty on the table without Witch Nancy putting the wall on the table. It's time for the EO. Otherwise, we get some benefits for DACA and no wall.

Isn't it clear? She and Chuckie are holding out for "no wall", because President Trump keeps putting more on the table.

Yes, he puts what they said they wanted, on the table, and like a spoiled brat, the Pig refused it. She only wanted it because she thought she wouldn’t get it, thereby making Trump look like the bad guy.

So, now she spits at it, and SHE looks like the bad girl she is. And Trump will now be jockied into position to do the whole thing his way.

Piglousy wants to rule over the President. She also wanted to rule over the house. Trump is letting her know who’s boss, and it aint she. He even mucked up her vacation, and took her toy airplanes away. She’s livid.

That lady doesn’t give two spits about Mexicans or Americans. What she does care about is her power to call the shots, and if she has to pretend to like Mexicans, she’ll use them for that.

Trump figured out her game a long time ago. He knows her weak spots. She however hasn’t figured out how to best him. Unfortunately, she gives away her hand. She likes power and the perks that go with a position of prestige. She couldn’t care less about the people of the US of A. Her game is to spit in her own hand, then throw it into any fan she can find to point it at Trump, and that’s ALL she cares about. Vindictive spoiled brat. In the mean time, the world can starve to death.

I’ve known people like her. She’s predictable. Just like the devil himself. Same stuff the same way since he committed his first sin.

I agree with you. I'm the one trying to get the tag Witch Nancy and her Coven to take hold. But where are we now? President Trump put it all on the table, everything that can be negotiated. Now they say they won't even talk unless it's NO wall (total cave) and PERMANENT status for DACA and refugees (total cave). Those are the only positions President Trump hasn't already ceded. The witch gets either of them and she can tell her supporters that President Trump totally backed down, that he does not know how to handle a woman who stands up to him. And it would be totally true.

McConnell says he'll put it up for a vote. What if the vote fails? Then we would be in a "no wall" situation. The 'pub establishment would love that, because they despise Deplorables. And we'd be gone.

Summary....Nancy and Chuckie said "no". So where's the Executive Order? What we need from President Trump is that EO. That's how he shows Witch Nancy and her Coven who's in charge!

Ummmm - DACA on the table requires them to put the wall on it...everything he put on the table is predicated upon the wall and other border security measures....and he also stated up front that the DACA/TPS moratorium would be used as part of a bigger deal...he’s ensuring he has leverage down the road because he knows without it, they won’t do diddly.

Originally it was the wall or Executive Order ( which PS is what he should’ve told Paul Ryan). Now, it’s I’ll give you stuff for the wall, which you voted for in the past.

An EO would be tied up for a long time with the lib judges - much better to have the Congress do its job.....now that we are in the time frame when RIFs can be applied to a lot of unessential workers, his leverage increases.

The longer they stall and bluster, the stronger his position becomes because they will be sacrificing a big chunk of their base by not playing ball.

It's not a political game. It's real lives of real people. What about victims of human traffickers while the wall isn't being built? What about small businesses that will close because they lose their revenue from government workers? What about those dying from illegal drugs or in the wrong place as the wrong time when invader criminals start shooting? What political leverage? President Trump should've demanded money for the Wall in any Republican-majority budget he signed.

No, he should sign the EO for the next two years of the wall. No other gifts to try to make a deal with people whose only goal is to make him look foolish. Then, they can sit down and talk about the other three years of the wall!
