Maybe if Trump wanted his wall, he probably should have not blackmailed the government to get his way.  Once he turned it into a hostage situation, all negotiations were off the table.  Now if he wants to come to the table, he has to let the hostage free first because why would anyone negotiate under those situations.  If you give in, then you have to go through it all over again for the next demand where he waits until its budget time again instead of working on a solution before we get to this point.  When has it ever been effective to give in when someone tries to force your hand.

The only reason you only see Trump negotiating is because that is all you want to see.  When Trump stated he will shutdown the government for his demand and he would not budge from his 5.6 Billion, he put himself into a corner.  He made a stupid comment trying to grandstand in front of the cameras not knowing how dumb it was to make that statement.  It was like a gift to the Dems and they will hold his feet to the fire for being an idiot.

Have you been paying attention.  Its not the Reps helping to hold things up, its just McConnell.  You know, that guy who will not put any bills on the Senate floor because he is afraid to anger Trump base and put any GOP who might be coming up for reelection in 2020 in jeopardy.  You have one person scared for his political life doing nothing because he doesn't want to see a 2/3rd vote send Trump veto to hell.

We know the entire story about the 25 Billion dreamer package and we also remember when right wing media denounced it when Trump was considering the offer. 

In a hostage situation you care about the hostages but does that mean you give in to the demands.  Why do you believe we have a policy to not negotiate with Terrorist in such situations.  If you give in to one demand, then they will continue to repeat the same thing.  The first step is for Trump to realize that waiting until budget time to make demands without giving anything in return is over.  The Dems will not play that game and he will have to do his job if he wants anything.  He played this scenario 3 times, at some point people stop falling for it.  You can continue to absolve Trump of anything but as he stated he will own this shutdown and its up to him to end it.

This is not uncommon though. Past Presidents have used their veto to shutdown the government to get their way.

They refuse to negociate with a gun against their heads.
Basically Trump has to start the government back up, before their even willing to meet and try talk about tit for tat.

If trump wanted the wall, he would start things back up, and be ready to concede alot, to get his wall.
Instead of trying to force the issue, which the other said have already said, they wont bend to.

And doesnt this backfire more often that not?
its not really a solid strategy.

Trump tested the waters, hes now had the longest goverment shutdown ever in US history, and he is no closer to getting his wall.

Dont take my word for it?  Here is a Harvard professor in public policy:

“Shutdowns don’t work. I mean, they work to the extent that cutting off your arm helps you lose weight if you’re on a diet,” says Linda Bilmes, a public policy professor at Harvard’s Kennedy School and a leading expert on budgetary issues. “Shutdowns create far more problems than they solve for both sides, regardless of who is the short-term winner.”

She does point out that it has worked before, but it usally doesnt.
This is not a winner's tactics, this is a "im desperate" move, that will likely fail. 

He does not communicate like a president should but i dont think he is such a bad person and the almost religious left or right wing hyperbole will not likely change that,this thread is full of it.

No, this strategy worked during the Obama and Clinton admin because Republicans were willing to work to cut a deal.

The last 3 Presidents have approved of a border barrier on the southern border and it has led to less people coming but when Trump wan't it he is xenophobic.

How many Presidents have 3 in just 2 years.  Yes, presidents do use their veto but at some point, doing it every single time will lose its net effect and then you get nothing.  As with any power move, timing is everything.  So now in our third shutdown, the game is changed.  No one is dealing until that option is off the table.  We never should have gotten to this point with a made up crisis at the border when this whole thing could have been negotiated properly.  If the border was so important, he should have been dealing when he came into office with majority rule not wait until Dems get the house before we find ourselves in this garbage. Trump wanted a shutdown, he has stated it many times and now he has his shutdown.  

Good people don’t accumulate 1500 independently confirmed reports of corruption in three years.  Even Batman villains have difficulty doing that.

But Beloved Leader is just getting started.

You quoted two comments and manipulated those same two comments.

If that says anything about how you deal with information then i might be tempted to distrust whatever "facts" you bring to the table and most good people are not getting caught up as president in a masshysteria of this magnitude.

There have been countless reports of corruption from previous presidents administrations too but you will most likely label that as right wing propaganda and maybe put some Russia in it .
