Did Trump say he only was looking for around 5 million for the wall right now? Thats seems like that would not do very much. I might have heard wrong though.
Who, Mexico? Seems silly to do something as politically stupid as saying "I will shut the government down" if he has moneys
Okay real talk Tenny. How much beyond the 1.6 billion in the spending package back in the spring has been approved?
Politically stupid? You're either kidding or haven't been paying attention to the one thing that has singlehandedly sustained Trump's base and withstood all assaults / self-inflicted wounds. You wanna make a gentlemen's wager that he gets funding before re-opening the government - and that it'll be the Dems who pay the political tab for the trouble, before caving?
Seems hard to measure but if you can quantify it, I'm your Huckleberry. No Trump avatars. And he needs more than the base. Like a lot more. So yeah, it's not endearing him to much outside said base. Maybe it's not "stupid" but it's definitely not "smart"
