When Mexico writes us a check for $5 billion, then reopen the government. Until then, keep it shutdown.
They are saying that this should be a separate negotiation, just like the GOP said when the Dems held things up for DACA. So the Dems are saying that we should open the government, then negotiate a deal on the border.
They said they would on nat TV. Now it appears we have partisan stories coming out of yesterday's planned circus. Maybe they should televise the next "negotiation". That sure was fun last time.Except they said they wouldn't.
What exactly were they asked. I heard it was if they would give him money for the wall within 30 days. That was a no. The guy is supposed to be a deal maker. Making deals doesn't amount to making a demand, then walking out when it isn't met. If he's going to back out of deals that he sends Pence to make, then he needs to spend the time to work on them himself, work being the operative word. Has the DACA trade been offered up this round?Except they said they wouldn't.
Not on the table. It's $5.7 bn for the wall in exchange with nothing. The Dems and moderte Rs agreed to more wall money last year in exchange for DACA, but the WH and House Rs blew it up. What's the incentive to negotiate with such a flip flopper (Trump)?
Plus moderate Rs are going to side with the Dems shortly.
:joy::joy::joy:And a bigger caravan has reportedly begun to form south of Mexico..
He's giving them every chance. He said he's going to do it regardless. Might as well get something out of it.
Dems are just playing the game like Trump is but I think it's advantage Dems right now.
