Trump wins because he isn't screwing anyone over
Today's earworm: "And The Donald was Sun Tzu fighting..."
Democrats have 19 days to decide if they want to be relevant. Either they fund the next section of the wall, or The Donald uses his emergency powers and builds it all.
He is not playing around.
It is a done deal.
Sadly many of our friends do not get this.
At Instapundit, Sarah Hoyt was beside herself on Saturday: "THERE IS NO GOOD FAITH WITH THE LEFT. I’VE NEVER SEEN ANYONE NEGOTIATE WITH SOCIALISTS OR COMMUNISTS AND GET ANYTHING BUT DESTROYED. AH WELL. I WAS AFRAID OF THIS WHEN THEY TOOK THE HOUSE: Trump Backs A Continuing Resolution, Temporarily Opens Government.
"Now the only likely outcomes are bad."
Earlier, Glenn Reynolds wrote, "SO IS THIS A CAVE? IT KIND OF FEELS LIKE A CAVE TO ME: Trump announces temporary end to partial government shutdown; vows to build wall despite no funding deal."
That is loser talk.
That is the result of watching politicians try to beat the devil on his own terms. Republicans always let the Democrats write the rules and umpire the game.
President Trump is not a politician. He is a wheeler dealer.
The president is having the time of his life. This is what he lives for. He loves negotiating, and he loves making a deal.
Unlike the politicians in Washington, he is not trying to vanquish his enemies. He just wants to get a deal done.
Oh, he plays elbows out, but his goal is peace. He let Kim Jong Un save face. He will do the same with Chairman Xi. Nancy, too.
Nancy spent Friday afternoon strutting her stuff and pushing the spin that he caved. This is what she does when President Trump beats her.
Fakes like Ann Coulter fall for it.
President Trump has the authority to build the wall. All he needs is the money. Congress thinks it has the power of the purses, but money is fungible, isn't it?
Congress passed a law in 1976 that allows the president to declare a national emergency and get this done. The law was passed by a Democrat Congress and signed into law by an Establishment Republican president.
In 2006, Congress passed a law that authorized the wall.
Meanwhile, in Central America, 12,000 illegal aliens are gathering to try to swarm our border again, which creates the emergency needed to get this going.
Democrats think they can sue and stop President Trump. How? It is an emergency and the law says there should be a wall.
Besides, who cares if they sue? They sue all the time. They will lose. In the end, the president will prevail.
Establishment Republicans say this will establish a dangerous precedent. They always say that. Again, who cares? Democrat presidents do whatever they like anyway.
President Trump tried working with these fools but they do not want to cut a deal. They want him to fail, die slowly, and be buried upside down facing away from the sun.
He is not trying to screw over anyone. He is willing to give them something in return for the wall.
No. They would rather starve then let him eat.
