[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All Trump had to do was get the votes, in the Republican majority House and Senate before Christmas, to pass the same bill with billions for the wall without the DACA compromise. The Congress was controlled by Republicans, folks, this should have been possible.

But no, he turned down the compromise and did nothing but tweet until the republican Congress left town for the holidays. It was only a few weeks ago.

Now he's saying Democrats were responsible? When they just took over, only the House, January 3?

Trump could have had his wall. But he chose to waste time and blame others. And then act like he doesn't have any sense at all. [/quote]

Did you look at the vote tallys?

95% of GOP voted for it.

5% voted against it.

Not enough to pass without democratic support.[/quote]

And Trump could have tried to compromise to get that 5% of republicans to vote for the wall OR sign into law the compromise that was sent to him before Christmas. It wasn't rocket science, either Trump had the votes or did not have the votes.

If he worked to get the votes, then he could have had his way. Instead, nothing happened and the republicans all left for the holiday. [/quote]
