This is perfect.

Trump will get the wall funding through declaring a national emergency through executive order, and the Dems get Nothing in exchange.

She had a chance to get at least Daca out of this,now she'll get not a single thing.

Trump truly is the Geotus

Big beautiful metal slats. Have you not heard? Not surprising. You are ignorant on most subjects.

One end of her mouth she says we are working in a bipartisan way...

SHE only wants certain things at the border to line their pockets.

But NO WALL.

How did she lie? The Dems said they would negotiate border security. Where did she say they would negotiate for a wall during or after the shutdown?

Nowhere.

If the Dems are offering increase funding for more border patrol, more technology, more judges for asylum seekers, etc., then they are keeping their promise.

FTR, I am no fan of Nancy Pelosi. She and Trump are different sides of the same coin.

What about barriers?

Dems have said multiple times in the past they supported them

It was in the party platform at both 2008 and 2012 conventions

The Democratic offer Wednesday was just a starting point in House-Senate talks on border security funding that kicked off in a basement room in the Capitol. Then, a top Democrat, House Appropriations Committee Chairwoman Nita Lowey, D-N.Y., acknowledged that "everything is on the table," including the border barriers demanded by Trump. Lawmakers on both sides in the talks signaled flexibility in hopes of resolving the standoff with Trump that sparked the 35-day partial government shutdown.
