@realDonaldTrump
I am all alone (poor me) in the White House waiting for the Democrats to come back and make a deal on desperately needed Border Security.
At some point the Democrats not wanting to make a deal will cost our Country more money than the Border Wall we are all talking about. Crazy!

11:32 AM - Dec 24, 2018

Aw. You poor Bobo Doll. You can end this shutdown at any time you know. Just sign today what you agreed to sign last Tuesday.

You should have taken the bipartisan DACA deal in March 2018. Your precious wall would already be funded.

This is your shutdown. You own it fat boy.....

Donald J. Trump on 11 December 2018 said:
“I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down. I’m not going to blame you (Democrats) for it.”

This was so predictable. Trump shuts down the gov't so he can tweet all day long and try to make us feel sorry for him.

The Dems shot down the DACA deal. Trump offered more than twice the number of people they requested.

Do you have a reasonably MSM cite for that assertion?

As I remember it, DACA was another deal Trump agreed to then backed out of due to pressure from the media wingnuts.

Dems wanted 700,000 and Trump came back with 1.8 million if I recall. That caught them off guard so they had to find other reasons to kill the deal.


Earlier this year, Trump extended Democrats a remarkable offer: Instead of simply granting legal status to current DACA recipients, he would agree to a path to citizenship for nearly 2 million “dreamers” — those who were brought to the United States as children through no fault of their own — if Democrats would agree to fund his border wall, limit chain migration and get rid of the visa lottery system. It was a bold move, one that earned him scorn from many in his own base. Democrats should have seized this opportunity. Instead, they rejected it and refused to make a serious counter*offer. Their actions showed they care more about mobilizing voters in 2018 with faux outrage than they do about helping actual dreamers become American citizens.

A timeline of DACA offers Trump has rejected
 
Why should we have this conversation? Because are you embarrassed about our history of the United States? Are you trying to elect more democrats because you have more pawns who will usually look at the democrats party as a hand even though you are against economic growth in America but of course you want more people in American
 
They want everyone to come in

Of course. That is as plain as day. Why don't they just admit that they have no interest in border security and consider border security somehow racist and unfair? At least be honest about that.

Oh, yes. The Stephen Miller demand list. Not even the GOP liked that.

What does "agree to fund his border wall" actually mean? That Thiessen opinion piece doesn't explain.

To be clear, I think Trump would give anything for his Great Wall. Would Limbaugh, Ingrahm...?
 
This rehash doesn't change the fact that Trump stepped up and made a very generous offer. The Dems made the clearest possible statement that they do not want the wall under ANY conditions. Why agree to a wall when not having one can help bring in millions more of your future supporters?

That is about the vaguest post I have ever seen in these pages.


In red: What offer was that?

In blue: No kidding. Nobody wants the concrete wall. Nobody even wants a physical barrier spanning the entire Southern Border other than Donald's base. We can no longer even be sure what Donald wants as he has been ALL OVER THE MAP!

In rose: What? You appear to have bitten hard on the BS that Trump himself does not believe. Are you aiming for the Carl Sagan standard. "Billions and Billions of stars." ...."Millions and Millions of Illegals"

Honesty is not the best policy in politics. Best to remain solidly for, or at present carefully considering, all three sides of a given "issue" and yet somewhat against it under certain circumstances. When asked for a specific policy position simply reply that several detailed solutions are currently under careful consideration and that which, among those viable, cost effective and detailed solutions, has been settled on will likely be announced very soon.

God, TDS much? Trump throws a little sarcasm into a dig on the Dems and you go off the deep end.

Look, it's easy. We have 12-20 million illegals here now. Whatever we've done to this point has failed. It's just past time for Democrats and the corporatists to admit that they want open borders and couldn't care less about either the fiscal or security concerns of the American taxpayer. Just admit the truth. You will all feel better.

LOL, he reeled you in like a 70lb tuna. Do you seriously think this is an appeal for sympathy? Reads more like putting a more pressure on Dems :lamo

Don't worry, Trump will build his wall without Congressional money.

Dems will be pissed.

Try googling "Trump daca deal". All kinds of hits. Most saying Trump offered something like 1.2million Dreamers and Dems said no.

Try to find a precise definition of "dreamer" in any of those "DACA deal" hits. Obviously, it had to differ from the current definition since it was said to apply to at least twice as many folks. Many of the ideas (policy positions or bills) that Trump babbles about (using many disjointed sentence fragments) or promises to support simply do not exist in any detailed form.

If so, then why doesn't Trump build the wall WITHOUT congressional money? Thank you for verifying then that this TRULY is Trump's SHUTDOWN. :lamo
