After meeting w/Trump.

Trump responded he will NOT open the government, and will keep it closed for Months or years if needed.

These are their words.

EDIT: Trump about to speak from Rose Garden.

The more the dems hold pressers that come out and say they will not work with Trump on a wall funding and open the gov.. The worse it looks for Dems look for not wanting work with Trump..

I don't think that squares up with the Art of the Deal methodology.

I can’t believe this is the hill Dems want to die on. If they were smart they would have given him his wall right from the beginning. The cost is a drop in the bucket and they could have gotten DACA out of it and started to work on infrastructure. It’s insane that they are drawing a line in the sand and calling walls “immoral”. They are just painting themselves in to a corner.

They already said no way on the wall. I would tell them to pound sand.

It worked on Reagan, I'm guessing they think Trump wants to repeat it.

They are paying for their rhetoric. They call walls racist and immoral, and that plays well to a room of fricktarded Dems, but doesn’t make any real sense in the real world. They have labeled it as something that’s non-negotiable, and they have to stand by it. They are very bad politicians.

I just want to reiterate how asinine it is Trump/Congress waited until 2019 to get this done.

Doesn't make Dems any less idiotic now, but Christ that was stupid to wait.

Only problem with that is they won't give him what he wants though.

I give absolutely zero trust to those two.

They sure didn’t seem too salty. Pelosi was shaky.
