"The Democrats hate Trump so much that they don't want him to succeed, even if working with him would be good for the country."
MSNBC is playing the clip.
Says that if there is no group hug in the next 11 days, Trump is screwed (no, that's not an exact quote, just the gist).
Somehow, I do not see Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer huddling to find ways to make Trump look good in the next 11 days.

Please pull your head outta your arse and wipe the poo from your eyes so you can see. Because you clearly are living in your master's reality not the reality that is REAL.

(35 posts)The ONLY way I see Democrats even entertaining giving funding for this wall is if trump and his ilk agree to give some SERIOUS concessions. Like universal basic income, DACA, and single payer healthcare, and blanket amnesty for all existing undocumented persons all wrapped into one bill in exchange for 2 Bn in funding for a modest fence instead of a wall.
Short of that, no chance. Since the Dems have more leverage now, trump potentially offering DACA in exchange for full funding for the wall would be majorly inadequate IMO.

2. Fuck you, McConnell, Graham, and all of you other complicit mother fuckers for having the absolute gall to even think that Democrats need to console a Russian operative President.
3. Heres crow, Figure out how to eat it.
