So....POTUS showing everyone that he is the one willing to be accomodating, unlike the Speaker.
Alternatively, something is happening behind the scenes and the shutdown will soon be over?

With his letter stating there was no security problem, he forced her to show that it had nothing to do with security. Stripped the fig leaf off. Forced her to actually choose to be reasonable or obstinate. She showed her true face.
Going to any other venue would be a loss for POTUS. Pubbie Leader is going to make a privileged motion which if I understood it correctly will force a vote on whether the house approves or not. He said most DEMS are not happy with what Foul Fran has done.
I’m not good at chess, so that’s as far as I can get for now. I think POTUS was smart to wait for the appropriate venue-he was able to establish her real motives.
What Trump is doing is playing strictly by the rules. Those rules will hurt the Dims in the long run, nobody should believe the polls. The rules also state he can declare and red castle.
It’ll be interesting to see how all this plays out. I’m patient, I trust the plan.

had to look it up:
Privileged motion. A privileged motion is a motion that is granted precedence over ordinary business because it concerns matters of great importance or urgency. Such motions are not debatable, although in case of questions of privilege, the chair may feel the need to elicit relevant facts from members.
