The Shutdown Could End Tomorrow But Dealing With Trump Is Like Negotiating With a Criminal
Before taking office President Donald Trump shouted from the rafters about his ability to get deals done. He truly sold white America on his business acumen and ability to seal the deal. Now we all realize that his business methods are equivalent to a goon holding a debtors kids in a seedy basement until he gets his money.
With the tact of a rhinoceros in a bong shop, president Trump seems to have totally forgotten that he has complete control of Congress until January rolls around. He doesnt need Democrats to push anything through, including funding for his dumb-ass wall that no one wants.

Which is why it hasn't passed in the first two years of his term.
Besides, Mexico is supposed to pay for it.

Accurate if frightening analysis of Trump's attitude in all this.
