    Thanks for proving this had nothing to do with protecting the people but just power politics.

    Robert Mueller has been schooling us on how to handle Trump for nearly two years.

    Trump's bluster and strutting have been met with stone silence.

    Trump owns the airwaves, but Mueller looms invisibly over his shoulder. Never more so than yesterday.

    So Trump should like Pelosi just refuse to negotiate, this is about politically winning that is what is most important to you.

    Thanks for proving that none of this is about matters of importance but petty retributions.

    Oh, really?

    Who promised on day 1 of his campaign that he would build the Wall?

    Guaranteed, 100%!

    Trump had 2 years and control of the Senate and the House to get 5.3 billion for his Wall.

    He was unable to do so. And you still call him a "deal maker" ?

    He torpedoed himself by making unsustainable promises to a base that was drinking his xenophobic comments.

    You voted for Trump because you were convinced that he would make everyone fold, that he would be the chief matamore.

    Well, no, sorry.

    In a democracy, compromises have to be made, especially when only 38% of people approve of your work.

    Perhaps he should have surrounded himself with honest people rather than criminals and incompetents in his campain and position as President... even though he himself is the least honest President in the history of this country.

    Correct, it's really entertaining to see and hear the spin of the right as they see their great negotiator get owned time and time again. Nancy is and will continue to play Trump like a cheap fiddle.
    ROTFLMAO.

    Some people just can't give credit where credit is due. Sad really.

    What type of third party would you envision?

    If you play with numbers, it's easy to say the shutdown cost the US 1.2B a week or about 6 billion. That's more that what Trump was asking. Trump said he would take blame for the shutdown from the onset.

    In the next 3 weeks, Pelosi needs to go on a long trip, preferably to a warzone (by herself). That could be Afghanistan or about anywhere in Sinaloa. Maybe she should join a caravan that's headed back where they came from.

    "Nancy Pelosi teaches us how to perfectly own narcissists like Donald Trump"

    indeed she has, course the narcissist in Trump is fuming mad right now, and he will Punish America for that in some way, watch and see, trump feels better when he is making others suffer, he loved this shutdown until it started to make him look bad, only then did he decide to open the government back up

    I'd really like to see a party that represents that vast swath in the middle - socially leaning liberal and economically leaning conservative. People who don't freak out about a gay couple getting married or a a person buying a gun.

    Sounds like the leader of such a party would need to be a cross between John Kennedy and Ronald Reagan. Out of 330,000,000 citizens, a person like that probably exists. Getting the needed political backing and money would be the biggest hurdle. I would like to see more moderation from both parties. The divide is caused by poor leaders. If I were King I would fire them all!

    Psst I think the 'play' works in this country. I think it works regardless of political ideology. Margaret Thatcher won her elections with many of the same personality traits that media smacked Hillary around for on this side of the pond. 'Cold', 'ruthless', 'power hungry'. In comparable men we see the same traits as serious, ambitious and tough. Its sexism. Hillary simply could not be warm or charming enough to win sufficient voters to gain national office. A congresswoman fortunately does not need to be, so Feinstein, Sen. Clinton and Pelosi can survive.

    lol...nice try at trying to defend the moron racist asshat infesting the White House. If you think trump is going to have any power to shut down the government in 3 weeks, I have a wall to sell you that Mexico is gonna pay for.

    It wasn't just Nancy though. All the Dems in the House deserve credit. They stood together...they owned the narrative on every credible network...they projected a unified message...and they stood together. They're actually acting like a party for the people. I'm very proud to be a Liberal Democrat these days. They're clearly showing the difference between what the Democrats are and what they stand for vs the racist, anti-worker, anti-humanity, anti-Democracy, anti-truth party that is the other side.

    Thank you Democratic House...for listening to your constituents and doing the right thing for the country. Well done!!!

    That not part of a spending bill and requires specific legislation and Pelosi didn even ask for it. Quote where she said she would fund the wall if he passed a DACA bill.He offered 3 year protection while Pelosi comes up with a bill. He also offered the additional judges, the electronic monitoring she wanted. What has she offered and wht will she offer now that the government is back open.

    Trump has to offer it, if Trump wants the bill as is just sign it

    if he wants more then that he needs to make an offer that dems will accept, so far he has failed at that

    Trump already was given a bi-partisan bill to sign

    Trump doesn't know how to deal or to write a book, sure someone else wrote the art of the deal for him
