How about - Never.

What do you suppose will be the next move?

Um, no.

Just talk, he's wasting his time while the crisis gets exponentially worse.

The DEMON RATS have absolutely ZERO interest in securing the border. They will never make a "deal" that would ruin their ongoing plan of permanently replacing American CITIZENS with a new voter base composed of lawless, criminal, illegal aliens who will vote for DEMON RATS and "free stuff" at our taxpayers expense in perpetuity.

Trump, if the RINOs don't make him back down, has the support of the majority and a deal can be made in 45 minutes. That was meant to say that it's NOT complicated.

But if the RATS don't cooperate, then the gubermint stays partially shut down.

No more Global Warming catastrophe lies.

No more Demonrats hired to screw us in other ways.

Leave it partially shut down for months if it takes that long and watch the RATS squirm. Then they can all sit down together and in 45 minutes or less, it will all happen.

Dems are still checking with focus groups and overnight polls to see how they and how POTUS did last evening.

Once the results are in they will develop their political stand accordingly.

Trump is meeting with the Republicans now. At about 3:00 PM Eastern time, he will be meeting with the DemonRATs.

What i want to know is, supposedly there has already been $25 billion dollars allocated for the wall in previous administrations- so where the hell has the money gone to? Certainly not to the wall! Where is it?! What was it spent on?! There should be an investigation into where the money went! Get Mueller on this issue immediately- put him to work on something with actual substance to it instead of this sham investigation he’s running now!

This isn't going to end until there is serious damage. It took Lincoln four years to break Democrat rebellion. This rebellion is just getting started. When the SNAP benefits end, people start getting hungry, and rioting starts in large cities, that might bring the Democrats to the table.

Trump has a wall - his veto pen and the Freedom Caucus in the House. This fight literally is over the survival of the Republican Party. Democrats know that, they sense blood. They are hoping enough Quisling Pubbies turn to over ride Trump - if that happens, there is NO LEGISLATION they will not push.

This is the most serious political war of our lifetime ...

He said that he would ask for a meeting. That’s it.

Now if it doesn’t work out, they don’t do it or send a staffer, he needs to declare an emergency, preferable on the Friday before MLK weekend. I think he should televise the meeting.

Maybe Chuck and Nancy went out last night to celebrate their wonderful performances and are still too hung over to make it to the White House.

With only 12 percent of the voting public agreeing with Chuck and Nancy that there’s no problem at our southern border, you’d think they’d be eager to end this brouhaha as soon as possible. But apparently not.

What are they waiting for? Are they planning to keep the shutdown going indefinitely so that they can bring an endless stream of bedraggled out-of-work government employees before the cameras to blame Donald Trump for starving them to death?

The White House’s next move should be to convene a White House meeting of Washington,DC churches, synagogues, social-service agencies, etc., to prepare for meeting the needs of Chuck and Nancy’s made-to-order flocks of poverty-stricken sheep.

The opposition leaders he is meeting with today initially are all Republicans. After that he is scheduled to meet top political leaders of both parties (again opposition).

Then Thursday he is set to go to the border to do some photo-ops on the need for the wall.

This is full court press time.

If you can’t get a deal done in 30-45 minutes, it’s just not going to happen on that day. Trump has done what he can, and should walk away. A bad deal is far worse than no deal. Eventually Pelosi and Schumer will have to go crawling back to Trump and give him what he wants.

When that time comes, Trump will be able to get the full $25 billion.

Pelosi and Schumer wouldn't budge so the 45 minute meeting was over in just a couple of minutes.

Trump walked out on them because they didn't want to negotiate.

Aa always, negotiating with the democRATS is impossible because they are disingenuous.

Partisanship to them is, "Agree to what we want to do or we won't talk."
