[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey, Dems that are furloughed......are you happy with Pelosi's intransience?  [/quote]
I don't believe she is being intransigent.  I believe Trump is throwing a temper tantrum.  As with any 3-year old, you can't give in, you can only wait it out.[/quote]

And, if your toddler is throwing a temper tantrum on the airplane, what do you do?  Do you not try to fix the situation?  There is a time and a place to stick to your guns, but securing our border is important.  The barrier is only part of the ask.  And, she has voted for it before.  [/quote]
I've been in that situation.  I move my kid as far away from others as possible and keep her there until she calms down.  What I don't do is give in to her demands based on a tantrum.  I'm very patient and calmk and I stare down all dirty looks.  My kid can't outlast me, she can't make feel embarassed and, she can never ever get what she wants during a tantrum.

This IS the time and place to stick to your guns because if you give in, even once, he will use the shutdown tactic again to get whatever else he wants.  It's very predictable.  It's difficult, but unyielding patience is the only way.

You can see that Pelosi has done this before either with children and with narcissists.  I have also done this with narcissists.  I did make a mistake with a narcissist by backing off when I should not have.  It's a mistake because they view it as a sign of weakness.  I learned to stop making that mistake and then I won.  But it was painful right up until my victory.

Nancy, is that you? Would be thrilled if you lurked here![/quote]
Oh brother.  If you have kids, they must be little angels.  And you certainly never dealt with a narcissist.  Thank your lucky stars and leave dealing Trump to people who get it.[/quote]
