and trump wont sign them and they do not have the votes to override a presidential veto.
you don't seem to understand how bills work.
again the dems do not have the power. they want the government open they are going to have to compromise.
Donald J. Trump on 11 December 2018 said:“I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down.”

The Senate earlier voted to advance a House-passed spending bill, if only to keep talks going between Republicans and Democrats over Trump’s demand for $5 billion in new money for his wall.
"The Senate has voted to proceed to the legislation before us in order to preserve maximum flexibility for productive conversations to continue between the White House and our Democratic colleagues. I hope Senate Democrats will work with the White House," said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on the floor following one of the longest votes in the chamber's history. McConnell was wearing a button on his suit reading "Cranky Coalition" as he made his announcement.
But Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), a key player in the budget fight, countered that Trump was never going to get that much money — or any money — for his wall and floated several other plans to break the logjam. Those offers were quickly rejected by the White House.
there you go dems own the shut down. schumer filibustered any bill that would have been able to fund the government can keep it going.
Six different polls in the past two weeks (including Rasmussen) all state the same....
Trumps approval rating is falling
Trumps disapproval rating is increasing
Americans blame Trump for the govt. shutdown
Americans do not want a wall
Americans do not want Trump to declare a national emergency
Americans want the government reopened
Trump painted himself into a political corner with no off-ramp and the fool then doubled down.
Heard a better deal. They'll add one more contingency. Release your tax returns.
Regardless of what Trump offers, the fact remains that Democrats are resisting Trump in order to protect illegal aliens. IOW, elected American officials are putting foreigners who came here illegally before our own citizens. Of course, seeing what some of these states do, it is hardly surprising.
Laughably the TV Trumpets want us all to forget how we got here in anticipation of Trump's 4:00PM announce. Sorry, not interested in any deals with Government still closed. Open government, then negotiate.
They actually probably do but even if not have enough GOP votes that Trump would look bad vetoing them.
Hence why McConnell is blocking them.
History is not going to look kindly on McConnell for his behavior the last several years.
dems have no power if trump offers on the DACA thing. if they reject it then well they are screwed. this was the play that i was waiting on for a while now.
Trump put them in a corner if he is offering this deal to them.
They have been crying for months about DACA and now he is giving it to them.
No he isn't going to sign anything that doesn't include what he wants because he knows for a fact that if he signs something without it in there he will never get it.
a more stupid politician would do what you suggest but trump is a business man and he is playing by business rules not politics.
He is not more going to sign anything without what he wants in it then he would otherwise.
however now with offering them the DACA deal he has put them on the defense.
There is no DACA thing offered, the "Bridge act" is meaningless because the courts have already enacted it. Trump needs to offer a permanent solution including pathway to citizenship if he wants to negotiate after the Govt. reopens. The bill he announced today can't pass the House or the Senate. it is a f'n joke.
I swear to God I don't have any earthly idea what DonDon thinks he is doing and I don't think either he or the 4th rate actors he has left in the WH have any idea either. What was that mess today?
Is he offering this now as yet another CR bootstrap. Is he offering it as a Bill because if he is offering an actual Bill that is going through Appropriations and there is no way to keep the government closed that long.
Trump literally has no idea what he is doing. None and I am not kidding. He has no clue and his "people" don't either.
He claimed it was a bill that McConnell promised to bring to the floor tomorrow. It has no chance of passing. No bill that has 5.7 Billion for the mythical wall does.
yes dem's should be ashamed of themselves for having the longest government shut down in history.
CNN host Don Lemon on Thursday shared a 2013 video of President Trump saying then-President Obama should be fired over a government shutdown.
"If you say, 'Who gets fired?' it always has to be the top," Trump said on Fox News in 2013.
"The problems start from the top and they have to get solved from the top. The president is the leader, he has to get everyone in a room and lead," Trump added at the time.

During Obama's term Don said it was always the Presidents fault for a shutdown and the President should be fired. For once I wish we would take his own advice.

Since trump didn't cause the shut down why should he own it?
Schumer is 100% responsible for this thing and he should take credit for it
and continues to keep the government shut down.
He was offered a compromised plan that he has supported before so why is he now so against it?
The strong delusions Trump supporters have that they can so easily detach themselves from reality even when it's staring them right in the face is astonishing.

Nope The DACA thing is a real deal and part of the compromise. if dem's were interested in DACA then they would deal with that and maybe put it out further.
The government doesn't need to re-open for dems to get off their rear end and do their job.
Nope it is a good bill and if dem's reject it then we know where they stand on the shutdown they started.
What you fail to realize is that trump doesn't give a crap if the government is shut down for the next 2 years.
