This is not complicated.

If he veto’s the CR by tomorrow, he did not cave.

If he signs it, he caved.

Can he resurrect his reputation in February? Maybe. By either getting border wall money (not likely - not with Pelosi in charge) or shutting down the lousy 25% of the government not funded for the year.

Will he? Doubt it. Has blinked twice now.

Should do two things by tomorrow:
1. Veto the CR
2. Release the un-redacted 20 pages or so of the FISA Application.

Optional #3 - fire the head of the FED!

Get the momentum back.

Shame on the Democrats and RINOS for refusing to fund this wall.

"This is not complicated. If he veto’s the CR by tomorrow, he did not cave. If he signs it, he caved."

Simply put, and accurate.

Here is the exact tweet:

The Democrats, who know Steel Slats (Wall) are necessary for Border Security, are putting politics over Country. What they are just beginning to realize is that I will not sign any of their legislation, including infrastructure, unless it has perfect Border Security. U.S.A. WINS!

Weasel words, this is not democrat legislation now. It’s republican legislation. And he will sign it.

The left is a highly deceptive lot that thrives on dividing society, muzzling it, and dumbing it down thru PC and importaton of unassimilated third world masses.

There is an intent at eventually controlling and eliminating democracies just as did the most vile gun grabbing, human exterminating, authoritarians throughout world history.

It starts by eliminating free speech and all published opinions that differ from their own. Be afraid but oppose their every attempt at taking our security and freedoms.

"Love ya, Donald. But I’m from Missouri."

do not for a second think Missouri is safe, in just a few generations we will be outbred. Unlike americans , the SA/mexicans breed like cats, they all have six kids and those six have six and on it goes over 200 a day pouring in , it is a tragedy of epic proportions brewing

My guess would be that most Americans don’t know that 75% of the gov is funded. I don’t watch the MSM but I would further guess that they don’t advertise this.

><><

You’re right. Most have no idea.

The MSM is very good at “Censorship By Omission”.

Add this Trump tweet:

With so much talk about the Wall, people are losing sight of the great job being done on our Southern Border by Border Patrol, ICE and our great Military. Remember the Caravans? Well, they didn’t get through and none are forming or on their way. Border is tight. Fake News silent!

Will Trump shut down the government? IMO, Yes. The House is considering the Senate continuing resolution. What amendments will be made and what bill could emerge from the conference committee, if the House passes its version? The burden on passage will go back to the Senate. Flake, Murkowski, and Collins will have much to say about it.

Trump is obviously exploring other sources of funding that can circumvent Congress. It is not a coincidence that Trump is ordering the removal of the US military presence in Syria within 30 days. There will be a cost savings from this move. How much is anyone's guess. Trump could raise funds from the visa process or taxing remittances.

Trump has been fighting alone on the border wall save the Freedom Caucus. He has done more to expose what is happening on the border and the costs of illegal immigration, over $200 billion a year, and the American victims of criminal alien crime. Immigration has become a high profile issue, something that was buried by previous administrations including Bush 43 and Obama. No matter what happens, my strong support of Trump remains unchanged.

I agree

and the cynical/sarcastic side of me is nauseated to think and hate to say it ; that maybe we deserve to be bred out of existence for allowing abortion to stand, it would "serve us right.

how did it ever come to pass that we were defeated by socialism and systemic evil

Trump seems like a last gasp, a representative of righteousness clutching at straws

It is not cowardice to doubt your leader and no need to keep calling people cowards.

Good news is that if it's not obvious to us, it's likely not obvious to the uniparty, either 😄

There's got to be a pony in there somewhere!

They are NON ESSENTIAL PERSONNEL some paper pushers and gofers no one important.

Essential personnel have their pay delayed too.

If there's a shutdown the media story will be about Trump chilling at Mar a Lago while the SS agents protecting him and the border patrol agents standing guard go with out paychecks - over the holidays.

I think Trump's biggest problem is not enopugh Republican votes in the House to get more wall funding.

Especially since a lot of the Republicans who lost their elections aren't in DC to vote and probably have no plans to return.
