Trump to make announcement on partial government shutdown from Rose Garden
Fox News ^ | 01/25/2019 | Adam Shaw

Posted on 01/25/2019 11:04:42 AM PST by SeekAndFind

President Trump will speak in the Rose Garden about the partial government shutdown at 1:30 p.m ET on Friday -- an indication that a possible short-term deal may have been reached to end the stalemate, even as reports emerged that there is no funding for a border wall in the deal.

"The President will make remarks regarding the shutdown in the Rose Garden today at 1:30pm," Sanders tweeted. It was not immediately clear what Trump would say, but White House officials told Fox News that the situation was still in flux.

Meanwhile, another well-placed source told Fox News that negotiators were close on a continuing resolution to fund the government through February 15th with no funding for the wall. It would mark a significant win for House Democrats, despite Trump saying Republicans would not "cave" just a day earlier.

Trump got how much money? He is still talking on TV but words ring hollow, in 3 weeks will the wall be funded?

Of course..Dems NEVER cave because the Democrats have the media to construct the narrative so they will NEVER lose that..Trump has no one on his side, NO ONE.. maybe Rand Paul and thats it, there is no one around him that gives two sh*ts about him

“Trump got how much money? He is still talking on TV “

If he had gotten money, he would have lead with that. Instead he’s trying to put the best spin on what President Pelosi told him.

He said if after 3 weeks he did not get a deal on border security he would declare an emergency and do it.

Democrats won.

They may make minor concessions but the political reality is Trump will never get his wall.

He caved and they have no incentive to give him anything. They’re not afraid of another shutdown,

Whatever Trump is just a half-hearted effort to save face given the Democrats beat him like a rented mule.

Sad. The house has him on the ropes. pelosy’s goal is the election. If Trump doesn’t build, he will lose the election. Also Criminal Hillary is walking around.

He keeps telling us how nice walls are. This speech is repetitious of past speeches. If he doesn’t declare the emergency, he won’t get funding from the house. If he declares, the dems will tie him up in court and in two years the wall will not be built.

I don’t see a path to the wall before the election. Dem mission accomplished. UNLESS he declares and tells the judiciary to stand down as emergencies are not in their purview. But he has acquiesced to the courts for two years.

Good luck.

The picture on Trump’s book “The Art of the Deal” of him on the cover should be replaced by Pelosi.

This is what happened to W after he failed to privatize Social Security. That was his “Wall”, and after it failed he never was the same.

Why wouldn’t he do it now? Why wait? He’s never going to declare an emergency.

Its over. Trump is trying to put a brave face on a devastating defeat.

Trump has given. If the Dems don’t give now it is another shutdown.

It certainly led to a new direction. After the ss failure, he lurched toward amnesty, tarp, etc. Not a good omen.

All that happens over the next three weeks is the elites work on a veto proof CR and no wall.
Trump is brilliant and I hope he has something in his sleeve but this is his political naivete showing through. There is no reason for any democrat to work with him.
