Please indicate where he is willing to negotiate. TIA! |
He has said he is willing to negotiate many times ($2.5 billion instead of $5 billion, Steel slats, willing to open the govt and get the wall funding in 30 days). Nancy said no, no, no. This will help her base, but not flyover country who is more moderate. |

Are you joking? Pence is a miserable negotiater because he has no power. Anything he proposes, Trump contradicts. |
She will NOT negotiate border security until the government is re-opened. She won’t let him get away with using the US gov as a negotiation tool. How many times do we have to tell you that? She can’t let him set that precedent. She can’t let him think he can do this every time he wants his way. Her message is simple - open the government and then we will talk. His response is that he can’t do that because he will no longer have leverage. If you think it’s ok to let the potus use 800,000 families as leverage then there is something seriously wrong with you. |
None of this is true. You are an idiot. He had the house two weeks ago. Why didn't the bill get passed then? |
Our country is being held hostage by the President and McConnell and GOP senators are complicit when he is acting asa terrorist. There is no negotiation, this is extortion. America must not succumb to presidential extortion. |
This is flatly incorrect. They have taken the position that they will not negotiate. And he is not willing to accept any border security money without the wall. It's all or nothing. That is not negotiating. |
Only in the minds of Trump supporters |
This proves that the left loves to attack the messenger (Pence) when you can't attack the message (negotiations). The left is used to getting their way and never met a Potus who pushes back. |
See my above post about attacking the messenger. Fun Fact: You need 60 votes in the Senate (only 52 GOP Senators two weeks ago) to approve closure of an Appropriations Bill. |
Do Trump supporters still hate our FBI? It’s hard to keep track of whom they hate these days.

The FBI has run out of money to pay informants. Guess who could be happy about that? |
Also, gov secure website certificates have expired because there's nobody there to renew them. The shutdown has rendered multiple government websites insecure or inaccessible.

Trump attacked his own messenger. While Pence was trying to negotiate the compromise, Trump said he wouldn't do it. After that, Democrats said they would only talk to Trump directly. When speaking directly to Trump, he offered nothing in exchange for the wall. So of course they said no. How many people give something for nothing? Especially with someone who has reneged on deals before. |
