[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump is digging in on his unpopular shutdown and stewing alone in the Oval.  Hope he doesn’t decide to bomb some poor country as a distraction.

The television is on. The phone is never far away. And President Trump is repeatedly calling allies such as members of Congress and conservative radio hosts, telling them privately that he will not give in on his demand for funding for a border wall.

What the president who campaigned on his ability to cut deals has not done, nine days into a partial government shutdown over his signature campaign issue, is reach out to Democratic congressional leaders to strike one.

Virtually alone in the West Wing since the shutdown began, Mr. Trump has instead taken to Twitter to excoriate Democrats, and highlight that he canceled his own vacation to his private club in Florida while lawmakers left the city. He has lamented the negativity of the news media coverage, which has included repeated airings of Mr. Trump’s declaration in the Oval Office that he would not blame Democrats for a shutdown, according to people familiar with his thinking.[/quote][/quote]
They left him without any minders?

Scary isn't it? The shutdown reduces staffing on the adult daycare.[/quote]

You would think the adult daycare staff would be classified as as essential.[/quote]
