    Dang. My nature is to compromise.
    I keep hoping for a middle-ground concession on his physical border barrier funding but it seems any legislation that might come across Trump's desk will be devoid of an aliquot of wall money.

    He will have 3 choices. All three pretty bad.

    1. Sign it and get ridiculed by his base for re-caving.
    2. Don't sign it and get massive backlash from middle America for again shuttering the US.
    3. Declare a national emergency which most voters think is not real and see it languish is infinite court battles.

    Any body have a viable option #4?

    Don't even let legislation reach his desk if it does not have some degree of funding. Then blame Pelosi and Schumer for not being reasonable and shutting down the government.

    Nope, no viable option.

    You can't have negotiations when only one side is willing to negotiate, and Pelosi and Schumer have made it more than clear they are not willing to negotiate.

    The only bright side is, against my former belief that Trump would retain blame for another shutdown, Pelosi's comment that she'd rather see the government shutdown forever will very likely force the dems to take blame for another shutdown.

    To All,

    President Trump as COMMANDER IN CHIEF of the Armed Foreces should ORDER the Corps of Engineers and/or the Navy's SEA BEES to build the wall with his "discretionary funds".

    yours, satx

    A lot of border wall/fence/barrier exists that needs to be improved, bolstered and renovated.

    My wife is constantly watching Home and Garden TV home restoration shows.
    Maybe get HGTV to sponsor a show and renovate the border barriers?

    These guys could do it. HGTV has deep pockets and has lots of experience.

    1. declare gun deaths a national emergency.

    2. declare all federal judges except SCOTUS non-essential so any legal action can’t be judge shopped.

    3. confiscate all firearms from law abiding citizens who are not law enforcement or armed forces.

    4. await supporting SCOTUS opinion from liberal justices installed by democrat presidents.

    The Left is not waiting for the Right for any direction. If in the right position, the Left will do all of the above and more regardless of what the Right has done prior.
