He says he will be making a big reveal about the government shutdown and border security at 3pm EDT at the White House

Trump says he will make a 'major announcement' on the month-long shutdown and border security in a White House speech he says he'll deliver on Saturday afternoon

“[Turtle] has pledged to bring it to the Senate this week ... this solves the immediate crisis ... the humanitarian crisis like we rarely see .. delivers relief .. and border security .. and reopens the government ... “

[Pravious]

I’m waiting to hear Trump say what he’s going to do when the RATS refuse to deal.

[goodnesswins]

Ha...I’m on a phone with one finger...

[mewzilla]

The ‘Rats shouldn’t turn this down. But I really hope they are nuts enough to do it. Then DACA and TPS can go bye-bye.

[bigbob]

And Mitch will bring it to a vote - which will put the onus on the House. They will own DACA.

[Jane Long]

Says this is a compassionate compromise to solve this crisis that provides the three areas he’s covered.

McConnell has promised to put the bill on the Senate floor.

Government will re-open.

[Mikemurphy]

This is so reasonable. We GET THE WALL!! We win we win!! President is the adult in the room. Democrats running like rats!!! Great leadership by POTUS!!

[Deo volente]

Why the hell would the Democrats not jump at this offer?!

Oh yeah, there’s a wall involved.

[newfreep]

If POTUS is offering DACA relief, why not seek $20B to do the ENTIRE wall?

[StAnDeliver]

“Weekly bi-partisan meetings to [craft] final product ... My promise: I will never forget that my first duty and ulimately loyalty is to you the American people”

[Widget Jr]

Trump is making it clear. He will work with Democrats who will work with him. This bypasses Pelosi's and Schumer's "leadership" entirely.

This is the reality of how to get anything done. Trump gives the Democrats some of what they want, Republicans get some of what they want.

[caww]

Pelosi and Shulmer will not agree.....

[goodnesswins]

Yes...an ADULT SPEAKS...so refreshing

[Karoo]

I agree! We need to face and deal with the drug problem.

[Jane Long]

Congress has never wanted to fix DACA.

[lodi90]

Punting DACA until after 2020 has McConnell’s finger prints all over it.

[relee]

This is so reasonable.

and that's why the dimms will reject it.

[dennisw]

Well done! Well spoken!

[Political Junkie Too]

Pelosi is of an era when anything that helps Republicans as much as Democrats is a lose-win to them.
