Trump would consider short-term funding bill only with 'down payment' on wall: White House
The Hill ^

Posted on 01/24/2019 1:59:09 PM PST by Truth29

President Trump will only accept a stopgap spending bill to reopen the government if it contains a “down payment” for his long-desired border wall, the White House said Thursday, shortly after the Senate rejected two separate funding bills.

“The president would consider a CR only if it includes a down payment on the wall,” White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement to The Hill.

So what is the number, genius? Oh? You don’t know? You just trusted The Hill of trash again? Do you know what he’s talking about with a CR?

Nope. You don’t.

You just wanted to spew your “Concern” here.

Why don’t you look at the exact quote, plus Trump’s own words being played over and over on the TV.

The guy is continuing to “negotiate” with himself. Talk about WEAK, its pathetic. Pretty soon he will be offering to pay the DEMON RATS to come to the negotiations.

Folks, it’s really time to stop thinking Border Wall and go with a new better plan. A plan that has been tried and tested. A plan that works. A plan that does not need a Border Wall or 25 Billion Bucks to build it. A Plan that will cost us NOTHING yet save Billions.

Self Deportation. Arizona did it. And a million illegals left the state.

Implement this on a national level and watch our problems head south.

“You don’t understand a damn thing he does.”

I live in the world of results, not fairy tales.

“Or if you’ve negotiated billion dollar deals’ please elaborate.”

Ah yes, the I’m not qualified to speak unless I’ve negotiated a billion dollar deal “argument.” I’m not a world class cook, but I know when I’m being served under-cooked chicken.

Yeah that argument blows. Sorts and Bloomberg both are worth way more than djt. Therefore they should be pres according to that argument.

Why is Trump continually removing every leverage he has? Seriously, I don’t get it, he’s constantly mitigating the pain of the shutdown for the Democrats like signing off on them getting backpay.

“$7+ billion for the border wall.”

That would fund an aggressive wall building program over the next two years before the election (He got 1.7 over the first two years).

It would essentially button up the Rio Grande Valley and the border cities - which would transform the existing situation, and drive traffic out to more rural, open areas.

Ah ha ha..now you are just making crao up.
I have been critical of Trump but until he actually fails ..what is your point?
Trump has accomplished more than any modern President has accomplish in 2 years.
Not to mention Trump didn’t create this mess with illegal occupiers.
So, I am willing to give him some slack.

Trump is ouuta options

What the hell ever happened to his option of Declaring An Emergency, and funding it with Defense Department funds?

It's threads like this that bring out the personality cult types that just don't care that the centerpiece of his 16' campaign was a lie.

BREAKING: CNN reports that the Trump administration is preparing a draft proclamation to declare a national emergency on the southern border that identifies $7+ billion for the border wall.
