Trump on the Democrats - Trump Era

Telegraph: Reports on President Trump's reaction to the Democratic Shutdown, " Over the weekend Mr Trump had goaded Democrats from the sidelines, accusing them of shutting down the government to win concessions on immigration, in service of "their far left base."  "

Lets Get Real:

Thus the Washington D.C shutdown was a win for the Republicans, moderate Democrats caved and forced the Party to go along.   As stated in previous post the liberal base will be up in arms, they see that the Shutdown did not last long enough to hurt the Republicans and Trump.  Also as stated that running for the 2020 nomination voted no to re- opening the government, thus any moderates or right wingers have no chance in the Democratic Party.  As for DACA, the Democrats are fickle friends, the Democrats only got agreement for their to be a discussion, no promise on the result or if the House would go along.  In essence a pointless two days. 

The LIBERAL base of the Democratic Party - Trump Era

Guardian: Reports " “It’s official: Chuck Schumer is the worst negotiator in Washington – even worse than Trump,” said Murshed Zaheed, political director at progressive advocacy group Credo. “Any plan to protect Dreamers that relies on the word of serial liars like Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan or Donald Trump is doomed to fail.”  "

Lets Get Real:

The LIBERAL base of the Democratic Party will not be happy, Senator Schumer will have been seen to blink when faced with polls showing that the Democrats were being blamed by the US voters when it came to the shutdown, it never looks good when you support giving something to illegal immigrants at the cost of those born and bread in the US.  As CNN noticed those who are thinking of running in 2020 did not vote for the Bill, they know how important the base is when coming to running for the nomination.   It can be said that Trump was a great deal maker, he knew when to walk away and let the Congressional leaders solve the problem without promising anything in return. 

The Democrats and the SHUTDOWN - Trump Era

Daily Mail: Reports " Democrats moved quickly to frame Monday's result as a victory despite the widespread perception that they had caved.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Democrats caved, they closed the government down for nothing, the Republican Senate leadership did not promise that the DACA bill would pass and it has no say on what the Republicans say in the HOUSE.  One can assume that Speaker Ryan will come under pressure from the Conservatives in the Republican Party not to take up any bill on DACA from the Senate, it depends on what President Trump says about the issue.   Will the Trump Oval give cover to House Republicans to vote for DACA, it is seen as amnesty by the more Conservative element, and Trump won the Republican nomination and the Presidency based on his anti immigration views.  The next few weeks will be interesting.

Democrats BLINK over SHUTDOWN - Trump Era

BBC News: Reports " The US government partial shutdown is set to end after Senate Republicans and Democrats voted to approve a temporary funding bill.  "

Lets Get Real:

The moderate Democrats on the HILL just blinked, those Senators from RED STATES who are up for re-election were not willing to tie their political futures to the fate of the Dreamers.   Whatever the Senate decides to about DACA; this blog support granting amnesty to those Dreamers; the House is more Conservative, it will take the Oval to give political cover should House Republicans want to deal on DACA.   The Democrats lost the political message WAR, they were playing to their base, very liberal, very pro illegal immigration, the rest of the US might support DACA but not as the cost of closing down the Government.
