So, what would you ask for in return for more SFBW** money?

** Stupid Fucking Border Wall

Let's say we actually try to negotiate a deal for SFBW money. Not saying we should or will, but for this thread, let's say we do. What do we ask for?

DACA settlement ands irreversible protection for the Dreamers. Let's . . . . . what? . . . . . $5Bn?

Troops remain in Syria . . . . . $5Bn.

Medicare for all . . . . . $20Bn.

Funding for the arts . . . . . $1Bn.

Free addiction treatment . . . . . $2Bn

Poverty relief . . . . . $5Bn

Resignation . . . . . $50Bn





What's a deal worth?

That's our only offer...you run all three branches and you can't even whip your own party...now own it. Rs been taking hostages for ten years...screw that. The Dems control of the House actually starts now perversely enough in the Senate.
