He did not have the votes at that time or they would have voted then. When the vote was meaningless after the Senate passed only a CR, people who otherwise would have made the hard choice did not have to and passed what was nothing but a political vote.
I posted the transcript of this exchange. But I challenged moneill to provide proof of left wing, main stream media outlets calling Pelosi out for this after the fact (now that the House has voted to fund the wall).
Do you want them to call her out or just report she said Trump doesn't have the votes?
Are you asking news journalists to editorialize? https://www.cnbc.com/2018/12/20/hous...hutdown.htmlIt is unclear if Republicans will abandon that goal in an effort to keep the government running past Friday. During a televised Oval Office fracas last week, Pelosi challenged Trump by saying he did not have the votes for wall money in the House. It turns out he did.
Why did they wait until Thursday? if they had the votes last week -- why not vote last week and then have a week to work on the Democrats on the Senate to try and get them to support the bill? Not sure why they would bother leaving it to the last minute -- knowing that it is highly unlikely -- if not impossible -- that it will pass in the Senate as it stands now.
Some believe that they passed it because they know it won't pass the Senate.
......when in fact he easily had the votes in the House 217-185.
That shows you how hard life is for leading Democrats in the Trump era.
They've never before faced a challenge anything like Trump.
Only 6 more years.

What do you think Trump will be able to get through the House then?
Trump accepted responsibility for the upcoming shutdown in his meeting a week ago. It is rightfully on him. TRUMP SHUTDOWN.
