Doubt it. McConnel has pretty much given all power to Trump. He would be happy to have a dictatorship.


Why? Why doesn’t he have a spine? Or a brain?

Because the Russians have something on both McConnell and his dear wife.

Trump doesn’t accept compromise. He only accepts deals where he gets everything and they get nothing. He’s had deals before and he rejected them. He does t want compromise. Trump sucks at deal making.


No. He did not get a deal on this before.


Last year, 25 billion for the wall.


What the heck did he do with the 25 billion last year?


He turned it down.


What strings were attached?


Dreamer protections. We don’t live in a dictatorship. Do you know how government w/2 parties works?


Oh please. Sadly, both parties pull this kind of crap all the time. ACA case in point.


Uh....the GOP had the house and the senate for 2 years - why not push it then? Because it's all just a drama he's manufacturing to stir up his stupid base.


+1 I'm so tired of hearing from Republican's acting like the Democrats need to give Trump what he wants and get nothing in return. He didn't get it while the Republican's were running both houses of Congress. Why didn't he shut down the government for the wall last year?

+2 Trump could throw this all back on the Democrats simply by offering something the Democratic base wants and his own base doesn't mind. Infrastructure package or middle class tax cut come to mind, among many others. It's really a pretty simple negotiating tactic. Add a sweetener, and you win. How can Trump not know this?


Because he’s the great deal breaker.

Obama actually made deals with the Republicans despite their best efforts to avoid them and block everything he did. There was a deal on avoiding a shutdown right before Trump scuttled it and said he would take the blame for the shutdown. Per his word, this is his shutdown.

ACA was debated in Congress for over a year. Hearings upon hearings upon hearings. In the end, the Republicans decided to vote unanimously against it. That was a choice, but it doesn't mean that Dems didn't try to work with them or just ram the bill through. No matter what BS FauxNews has fed you about this.

It just so happens that a Russian oligarch has purchased the two largest mid western steel mills in Portland and Colorado Springs. Crickets from U.S. MSM about it as it pertains to the wall: https://www.reuters.com/article/russia-evraz-rails/russian-steelmaker-evraz-weighs-up-new-u-s-rail-mill-capex-soars-idUSL8N1WZ54E

I have little doubt this is why Trump is digging his heels in. He must please Putin at all costs.


Wow.
