Don't forget....Trump is not the problem getting wall money...It's the dear, dumb, Dems.
It’s just 9-D Quantum Chess.
Is there another $1.6B in there for the wall?
I remember him publicly musing whether to have the shutdown before or after the midterms and ultimately decided that it come after. It wasn’t that he was deciding when or the politics of having one but just the timing. Once you reject the left’s premise, you’ve already won half the battle.
OTOH, this bill is only through December 7, which I think is kind of strategically dumb if you’re planning a shutdown, but many government workers would probably enjoy the extra time off around Christmas and New Years if it lasts that long. If the GOP loses the congress, he really has nothing to lose and might as well get the shutdown started in the lame duck session. Just go play golf until they send him wall funding.

FLASHBACK 6 months ago: “I will never sign another bill like this again.”

Yep. I remember it well.
Very disappointed, for a change, in our President.
and
I believe he won’t
Haven’t several departmental funding bills been acted on?
He needed to get it off the table.
So, a promise and a Never Again mea culpa ignored.
I’m fine with this.
I would rather see Kavanaugh get through and clean up in the midterms. 52 more days isn’t going to kill us at this point.
Our system pretty much requires 2 elections to get something done that the people want.
Especially when the international news media oppose.
Well, we are playing a long game.
If we do well midterm we will get the money out of the new congress....
Nothing ever changes. 2 years after the voters gave them a Repub president and both chambers, including the rep from my district, it is the same old “stuff.” I am fed up to the ears.
I think even Trump is finally getting it — there will be no wall. Campaign fodder to be recycled in 2020.
Not blaming Trump necessarily but he has not been able to persuade anyone in Congress to climb aboard. He is all on his own on this wall deal.
Well, here we are. No, it isn't smart. It isn't chess. He is listening to lawyers and consultants instead of doing what he should.
Sure... Like I’ve said before..…republicans are saps..
WOW! SO MUCH WINNING! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL WALL WE HAVE!
Boooooooo this is not what was promised. Where’s the wall?
Does anyone know what sort of heinous parts are contained within this continuing resolution? What I most want to know is does it contain any increases in immigration or dreamers.
