Economy The [Wall / Government Shutdown] Megathread

[computer fogie]

He said he was ready to keep the government shut down for months or years, until he got his wall. What happened, Donald? What a fucking dope. The biggest dumbfuck in presidential history, by far.

 

[MikeMcMann]

It didn't take long for a Trump tard to rush in and defend their daddy. @Yorkist

So Trump was gonna be cool till Hannity and Coulter punked him into creating a fake emergency for a shutdown that he took credit for. Later he tried to blame it on the Dems. When Pelosi dominated him and he caves his cucks wanna spin it as a win?

And Trump did not get one single he demanded. He caved and gave Pelosi exactly what she demanded 3 weeks ago that he could have just caved and took then.

Someone needs to shoop Nancy in a dominatrix outfit with Donald as her gimp bitch.

 

[MeatheadMike]

Except they rejected his last proposal

So you're wrong

Who is they?

The last proposal was passed in the Senate unanimously on December 19th.
Trump rejected is the one who rejected that.

They now will be voting on essential the same bill again.

 

[panamaican]

Again and again, Trump demonstrates that he cannot negotiate except from a position of extreme leverage over his opponent. He had no superior leverage here and thus had to cave. Because when you spend your time bragging about winning, even ending up even is a loss.

Politics is fucking hard.

On the other side, no wonder business people don't go into politics. Politicians play the game at a much higher level. No criticism to DJT but he's out of his depth dealing with the Pelosi's and the McConnell's of Congress.

 

[Fedorable]

Do you remember when Jan Brewer decided to get tough on illegal immigration in Arizona and started citing "severed heads found in the desert"? Even a Fox News correspondent called her out on that bullshit. Before her it was Michelle Bachmann just repeating "what [she] heard."

i've seen two severed heads in the desert myself.

They already denied a "Watered down version" of the wall

LOL. They can deny whatever they want. What they cannot do is get a wall. That is what matters.

You sound poor and like a child

The one 4 days ago where he was giving into DACA and shit along with it and the Dems said it's a "non starter"

 

[JohnnySagebrush]

He said he was ready to keep the government shut down for months or years, until he got his wall. What happened, Donald? What a fucking dope. The biggest dumbfuck in presidential history, by far.

But @Farmer Br0wn told us that Democrats always cave first?

The one 4 days ago where he was giving into DACA and shit along with it and the Dems said it's a "non starter"

You mean the one where his proposal was to gut DACA? And Scotus took away all the leverage he had?

Yeah, no shit it was a nonstarter. He was offering to make DACA more restrictive in exchange for being given something else he wanted.

 

[Bamboozled]

Not that "fact checking" matters anymore. I just find this one amusing.

>WaPo

>fact checking

pick one

Yeah, no shit it was a nonstarter. He was offering to make DACA more restrictive in exchange for being given something else he wanted.

Which was better than his initial proposal.

Shocker, you're not arguing in good faith.

 

[MikeMcMann]

.."

And you sound stupid.
Oh wait. You are.

 

[Bamboozled]

And you sound stupid.
Oh wait. You are.

I can't be too stupid if I'm more affluent than you, poor boy.

 

[MikeMcMann]

But @Farmer Br0wn told us that Democrats always cave first?

Don't worry. They will spin this as the Dem's caving and Trump winning soon enough.
Oh wait, some of them already are.

 

[Quipling]

Which was better than his initial proposal.

So? Following a garbage offer with a slightly less garbage offer doesn't make the second offer worth taking. And the Dems have pretty conclusively established that they didn't have to take it.

Shocker, you're not arguing in good faith.

You don't know what that means and are just talking shit because you're mad, lol.

 

[MikeMcMann]

I can't be too stupid if I'm more affluent than you, poor boy.

Oh such a burn.

It takes a special level of stupid to try and get dick measuring contests with online people you don't know. Lol.

 

[spin]

But @Farmer Br0wn told us that Democrats always cave first?

in fairness, that's been pretty much true
