What exactly is there to negotiate. Trump has not given anything to the Dems to make them budge. He has blamed them for everything even when he is the one who stated he wanted the shutdown. If you remember the Dems tried to work with Trump and was willing to give him his 25 billion for the wall. I guess you forgot what happened then as well. Right wing media blew it up just like they did now and he backed out. After that point and another back out by Trump, why would the Dems go through that again. Right wing media is what controls Trump and so if the Dems want to negotiate they should go to them first and not Trump.
Everyone knows this isn't about the wall. It's definitely not about boarder security because there really isn't a real plan from the WH. 5.6 Billion isn't building anything. It's definitely not putting into place any real security with that wall and exactly what will it cover. It's a 15 year project that will cost probably 50 Billion or more. It's just another stunt from Trump to say he did something but we are footing the bill or for his ego.
This can all end if McConnell put the vote on the bills that passed the house on the Senate floor and they can push it through without the President. This is about politics on both sides and the GOP and the President have given nothing for the Dems to change their minds. When the GOP had the majority in Congress and the White House, they didn't even try to pass a bill for this wall. The GOP didn't want it and Trump really didn't care. Now that the Dems control the house we are all to believe that the wall is so important now, after 2 years not caring. This is the reason con men thrive in the US. The polls will be what make any movement on this issue and when the GOP see favor slipping for their future 2020 bid, then McConnell will put those bills on the Senate floor and we will move on.
