Congress does not support Trump's Wall. And he can't shut the government for his Wall.
"‘It’s like a manhood thing for him’: Pelosi’s power play with Trump serves as message to opponents"
By Mike DeBonis December 11, 2018
"During a remarkable 17-minute televised standoff in the Oval Office, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi challenged President Trump face to face Tuesday, offering a glimpse at the coming division of federal power and sending an indelible message to her own Democratic Party that she is best equipped to battle the mercurial president."
Trump made it clear he will shut the government and not take responsibility, as usual. The man NEVER takes responsibility unless it is a good thing he did not do or accomplish. lol!
"“I [Donald Trump] am proud to shut down the government for border security,” Trump told Schumer in the midst of a sharp exchange — accepting the sort of political responsibility most presidents take extreme pains to dodge. “I will be the one to shut it down. I’m not going to blame you for it.”"
Trump put his "manhood," he has none, on the line . . .
"In a display of message discipline, she called it the “Trump shutdown.” She challenged Trump’s vote-counting skills by suggesting House Republicans could not pass wall funding without Democratic votes. And she repeatedly called on Trump to back up his claims.“If I needed the votes for the wall in the House, I would have them in one session; it would be done,” he said.
“Well, then go do it,” she countered. “Go do it.”"
The GOP will choose to NOT support Trump's Wall as part of an overall undermining of their least favorite Prez. Just sayin . . .
"Elsewhere in the meeting, Pelosi demonstrated a talent for needling Trump. When Pelosi first spoke of a “Trump shutdown,” the president interrupted her: “Did you say ‘Trump’?”
When Trump boasted about “the lowest unemployment that we’ve had in 50 years,” Pelosi pointed out that 60 Republican House members were losing their jobs following the midterm elections."
It's Trump's "manhood" on the line . . . lol!
"“It’s like a manhood thing for him,” she said of the wall, according to an aide who was present. “As if manhood could ever be associated with him. This wall thing.”"
lol! Trump can't beat Grandma!
