Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 2.34pm post the following, " Trump agrees to reopen government "
Lets Get Real:
Thus this a 2nd win for the Democrats in Congress, Speaker Pelosi denied the President the House for the State of the Union and NOW the Oval Office has agreed to open the Government without any payment for the Trump Wall. The Trump base must have worked out NOW that Trump can be rolled and does not keep to his WORD. It can be postulated that the Trump White House saw the POLLS and were worried about 2020 and the Russia probe. The Democrats will now think they can run the domestic agenda and just threaten to close the Government if they do not get what they want. One doubts that the Trump Oval will want to close the Government again, also one presumes that Trump wants to do the State of the Union on the 29th, will the Speaker allow that without more concessions. The above has shown that Trump is WEAK, Reagan sacked the Air Traffic Controllers when they went on strike, he was a leader, POTUS has shown that he is not great at the deal and will NOT stand firm. The Republicans, well the Cabinet and VP should consider suspending POTUS and stating this is due to the Russia investigation, the Trump Presidency with this defeat and the Russia probe has become a RISK to Republicans in 2020. Of course it would take the VP to stand up to POTUS.
