Why can’t Trump make deals? No one trusts him anymore

While there are no “good guys”, the fact is there is a bipartisan spending bill right now that would pass with veto-proof majorities, and Mitch McConnell is holding it up.

More Americans agree with Pelosi than Trump, yet Trump and McConnell are gumming up the works.

So this would be over if certain Republican members in Congress remembered they were a separate and equal branch of government.

That "bipartisan spending bill" is just a tactic of the Dems. This all started when a spending bill that gave Trump his money was blocked by Schumer...because it needed only five Senate Dems to pass it. He said no.

Of course, that was when Republicans controlled the House. Now that the Dems control the House both Chuck AND Nancy are saying no. They won't even negotiate...just no.

Sorry, regardless what Trump said, this is on the Dems.
 
As well she should. Never negotiate with hostage takers. Reopen the government, then negotiate.

How about seal the border like democrats have been promising for forty #%$^ing years but never do. Govt should stay shut down until dems learn how to be Americans again.

This is not an answer to what I wrote in the slightest.

Bipartisan means bipartisan.

There is a spending bill that would get veto-proof majorities in both houses...that means enough Dem AND GOP votes to pass with at least 2/3 members in each house. You don’t get such support without NEGOTIATION and COMPROMISE.

Now...Mitch McConnell won’t let that bill come to the floor.

Border crossings have been going down for over a decade, and the Dems stand willing to discuss COMPREHENSIVE border security and immigration reform to continue to make that trend hold.

That includes fencing where it makese sense to add it...not a $25 B (and likely to grow) boondoggle.
 
Dems have been saying impeachment since before this guy was even elected. They have no intention for negotiating, they intend on blocking this guy succeeding even when it helps America. These democrats are filthy traitors. Filthy.

They are marching on our borders one caravan after another. Ive been hearing dems say your claim for forty years. You want that border as weak as possible in order to garner votes. It makes me sick that we have citizens helping another nation violate our laws and invade our nation. Guess you guys are ok with women being raped and beaten to death with hammers...cuz...according to you border crossings are down. Kavanaugh though...you guys were all for womens rights cuz he drank a budweiser. Why are you for allowing illegals into our country?

Those caravans have been coming for years. They end the same way every time...a bunch of claims for asylum...few granted.

The hard numbers don’t lie. Our metric for illegal entry..a million to a million and a half arrests per year for illegal crossings over a decade ago...350,000-500,000 today.

You're speaking to someone with lizard brain, there's nothing underneath, nothing at all. Like talking to a wall. He's right because he is full of fear, and FEELS right. He'll deny the terror, but that's just what lizard brain does. Theres no way to reason with such.

Full lizard brain fear mode. Might wanna check the depends there dude, prolly leakin!:lamo
 
Heres what the left fears. Losing voter base. They are so fearful of this that they ignore this with every cell in their bodies. Take your border crossing stats and explain them to the families of these people. I bet its ok to dems as long as its not their family member. Right?

Trouble, by your post it seems that you support ransom demands being used, is that correct?

The Democrats fear losing their voter base? Are you serious? Have you actually thought this out? Have you seen the polls? The Republicans and Trump are the ones that only have a 36% voter base and the Democrats have the rest (64%) and it is the Republicans that fear losing their voter base because they have so few. Why do you think that the Republican Senators don't stand up for what is right? Why doesn't McConnell put the Government shut down amendment up for a vote? They are scared that Trump will veto it and they will lose the few votes they still have.

"It is the right that is walking around fearful of this that they ignore this with every cell in their bodies"

Have you already forgotten that just 2 months ago there were the mid-term elections and the Democrats gained 40+seats in the House? They can easily afford to lose a few votes and still trounce the Republicans in the next election.

You should go out and get a "thinking cap" before you open your mouth again to say something as uninformed and ridiculous as your post
 
shrug...

Takes two to tango.

Trump has been in Washington almost the whole shutdown open to negotiating. Where has Nancy been? Hawaii, trying to skate out to various countries...etc. Oh...and she flat out said "No".

There is 1 reason Trump is staying in Washington and making damn sure everyone knows - it's his own personal pity party! Woe is me - "Poor poor me sitting here all alone waiting to make a deal"...it's all a freakin show aimed to fire up his base and make it look like he is making some YUGE sacrifice for them.

So shoot your right foot to spite your left, is that what you are saying? Punish everyone so that the guilty ones don't get away, right? My gawd, you deserve to live in a Dictatorship.

That's because Donald J Trump is one of the most SELFLESS hard working PATRIOTIC Americans TOILING away NOT taking a Salary and still being at least 5 greater in his achievements than any 10 other presidents. IN fact his polling number (the real non fake news ones) are higher than even George Washintgton's were.

No, Trump is the most patriotic and dedicated hero America has ever, or will ever see!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Slightly less virtous than CHrist, but ONLY slightly!

He's MAGA!:lamo:2rofll::lamo:2rofll:

lol this post isnt even cogent. Please explain who exactly a wall is punishing?
 
Bass ackwords - You can't make deals with ghosts and dems refuse to appear and negotiate.

IF your beloved Dems cared they'd make an effort to negotiate rather than try to escape the country on a junket at the people's expense.

Talk about refusing to appear, where is McConnell?

You really don't know?

This immigration and border problem/debate has been going on for 40 years and the problem has been that the Democrats and Republicans have not been able to come to an agreement. This problem has not been about either party being able to solve the problem as it requires that both parties agree.

Now, why don't you explain to me why the Republicans have not been able to solve this problem in the last 2 years, given that they controlled the House, the Senate and the Presidency?
