I think Trump’s move to be the adult in the room and open up the govt. was actually a brilliant move the way he structured it.
My guess is he will start building the wally Feb. 15 no matter what.It will take a court order to stop it.
I agree. Trump positioned himself as being the most reasonable and willing to negotiate. He realizes the odds are slim that Pelosi will agree to fund any new physical barriers. He will use plan B and come up with funding within the Executive Branch without even declaring a national emergency, which could trigger a long court fight.
It is ironic that the Dems are fighting to limit the power of the President and assert the rights of the Legislative Branch. Obama used a pen and a phone and the Reps let him get away with it, Pelosi and Schumer may be setting some legal precedents that will come to bite a Dem President in the ass down the road.
