You are so right on that score. I’m just saying I like to mull things over and get more information before I decide what the true situation is.

The media will be saying President Trump folds on the same day Roger Stone is arrested.

Time will tell if that is correct. However, things often appear one way when they are the other. President ztrump now get his State of the Union speech where he can make his case to the world. Plus will RGB show up? If not, then it’s time for a new Supreme Court Justice.

Sadly, he'll get his SOTU when Pelosi is good and ready, maybe months from now. She'll not let him speak until she sees advantage. Maybe the week after Mueller's report but definitely now while the wall is being discussed.

Pelosi's in the driver's seat at the moment, even Trump admitted it was her call. Guess McConnell ceded to her as well since she seems to be speaking for Congress.

I don’t like the initial optics, because I know Nancy and the Left will spin this for all it’s worth, and many will buy into their version.

I am willing to wait and see how this turns out.

I’m thinking Trump will wind up pleasing us in the end.

We’ll see.

Something to remember
The GOP and Trump had two years to do something, anything, and nothing happened.

Expecting the dems to do it is rather stupid.

Expecting the shutdown to work is rather mad.

Now, Trump is an excellent salesman, He can sell ice to to Alaska. The only question is what is he actually trying to sell?

Truthful? So, like Ann CULTWHORE you think Donald J. Trump is a clone of Jeb Bush?

I recognize hyperbole and you don't. Maybe you should read some of Anne's books on immigration and wise up.

I see you as an Alinskyite.

IMO < he has just given the Democrats he last chance to bargain in good faith. He reopened the government and took a hit for it. Now if Nancy and Chuck don’t bargain in good faith, he can say he’s done everything he can to work with them.

At that point he simply declares a national emergency and builds the wall.

Nancy and Chuck can then scream, yell, pout, toss a hissy fit, claim victory if they like, or whatever else they want.

The wall goes up.

They’ve just won a Pyrrhic Victory. It looks good in print, but the end result will be that Trump provides what he promised.

They will have absolutely no input regarding the wall. As for DACA, they may just lose their last bargaining chip on that as well.

Been listening to Levin's podcast. Makes sense, as he most often does. I can't give a lot of emotion to all this, age and all; but let's see how the three weeks play out.

Since his republican support has abandoned him, perhaps he should declare a national emergency and then appeal directly to the Supreme Court when they try to stop him. Let's just see.

Well, thought over your comment. Thinking done: your claim is bullsh#t. Try to win some votes and change some minds instead of being a world class ass. Your type of parlay and persona no doubt cost Trump votes.

I’ve been here longer than you newbie, and find JME_FAN refreshing.

He's lost it and needs a time out.

Maybe you do too.

Living in the rural Midwest, you know what I easily recognize?

Bullsh*t ...

And your “arguments” are stacked a country mile deep in the stuff.

The only individuals who “cost Trump votes” are the never satisfied, perpetually whining do-nothings, who - despite President Trump being the ONLY president to deliver NINETY effing percent of his campaign promises in two years, despite the constant bashing he receives from all sides, including his so-called “base,” - never miss an opportunity to help the left in the pile-on.

Your kind do little to “change minds” in a positive sense. Those of your ilk are like a bag of water-soaked rags tossed on a well-burning camp fire - you smother the flames and choke out all the air - then have the gaul to point fingers when the wolves enter the camp.

In fact, if the general color of this thread is any indication, it is those of your temperament - who constantly go out of their way to kill whatever forward motion there is, or could be - who do the most damage to President Trump’s re-election chances; because, like clockwork, you have a “conniption fit” over the slightest set back. You’re always ready to jump ship - but those like you are typically the first ones standing at the front of the liner to take credit from those who have been fighting it out in the trenches.

So, you want to get a good look at an “ass?” Go find a mirror to stare into for a few hours.
