Fine. If it's the semantics, then how about the Dems agree to $7B for "border security" and allow DHS/CBP to spend it as they see fit?

Um no. The conservatives blames Obama for the shutdown on his watch so therefore this is all on Trump.

if Chucky and Nancy's response was 'sign this and we'll take about what you want later' they are lucky they didn't get punched in the face.

$5B, and no new wall or new "fence" or whatever crap you want to call it. Maintain the existing, and spend on manpower, resources, judges to process the backlog, whatever.


Negotiations are easy.

Trump was the one who walked out. Why is this confusing to you?

Just get some strontium and irradiate it. It kills the bacteria.
Won't harm you.

Wait a minute...
Is DOE open? If not, time to go snag some spent fuel rods and get to working on a molten salt reactor

So I told my spouse I wanted to spend $5 million on villa in Lake Como. I had promised myself and the kids that we would someday live next to George Clooney in Italy and that for the sake of my mental health as well as the promise I made to our kids, I wanted him to write the check.

He said I was out of my ever-loving mind. We were already in debt up to our eyeballs and overdrawn at the bank as it was.

I said, "Well, fine. If that's the way you are going to be, then I'm going to shut this place down. No cooking. No cleaning. Nothing. "

What exactly would the compromise be here, pray tell?

I'm not going to satisfied with a week at an Airbnb at the beach. He's not going to borrow $5 million to buy an Italian villa?

If they want him to give up the wall, they need to give him something in return. Just as if he wants the wall, he needs to give them something in return. Its not solely up to him to acquiesce. Its really not a hard concept.
