FATCAT 60,909 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Trump Quietly Laying Groundwork for Massive Surrender on Border Wall For several days now, congressional negotiators have been working on a border-security appropriations deal. But there has been no public indication of whether the results will satisfy the president, who was rattling his saber on the subject as recently as the State of the Union address. Now there is growing evidence that he is inching up to the finish line for what may represent the mother of all surrenders, at least according to these signals from the New York Times: "On Capitol Hill, House and Senate conferees were nearing an agreement that could offer the president around $2 billion in funding for physical barriers, a number, still subject to change, that could result in a deal as early as Monday." http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/02/trump-quietly-lays-groundwork-for-surrender-on-border-fight.html This kitten over here (meow) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphine Prince 109,896 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 You have a week left to give up, dotard. Better to do it earlier and avoid a second political backlash from the general public. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

derpmonster 22,412 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Almost everyone wants border barriers as long as you don't kill the refugee program entirely and provide *some* path for refugees to seek refuge.

DeleteMyAccount 11,881 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 We shall see... if congress can get something passed before a new shutdown then it’ll all fall on Trump. And if he caves his base will be pissed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
