When Schumer caves in to stop the government shutdown....

...don't be surprised if the Republicans (via President Trump's wishes) add another amendment to the bill which the Dems violently oppose.
Like maybe, approval for paying for The Great Wall of America.
If Trump sees public opinion going against the Dems, which will be evidenced by Schumer begging for a vote to stop the government shutdown, the President may pull one of his negotiating tactics out of his bag and make voting for ending the shutdown even more distasteful for the Dems.
Teach the rat bastards a lesson!
Of course, the bill will have to go back to the HoR but that's not a problem.

Not to mention the longer Schumer holds out for the more damage is done to democrats in the midterms!

I don't know.
I mean, I like sticking it to the bastards as much as the next guy. But there is such a thing as overplaying your hand.

Ds have just moved into a horrible position. They very well might be forced into excepting whatever the President offers. Hell, Trump should hold a press conference and say that the new offer is the FY18 Presidential Budget that was released over the summer, take it or leave it.

The ways in which Trump can exploit this are endless.

He needs to stick it to the democrats and not let them get out of this easy.

He can’t negotiate until the Democrats give a counter offer. At this point their answer to funding CHIPS is no. They added nothing new to the bill. You walk away when there is no counter. You hear the counter offer. You don’t have to agree to it. You can still counter.
The Republicans have been bidding against themselves for 20 years.
Trump set the terms and the narrative. He needs to hold firm until they counter.

What if Schumer agrees to $1M for the wall? Trump refuses because that only builds 5 miles of wall. Schumer gets on TV "We offered him funding for the wall and he turned it down."

Offer amnesty to DACA but they and any others that have received amnesty in the past can never vote and never receive welfare of any kind.
