Trump two years in: The dealmaker who can’t seem to make a deal

[Denizen]

The greatest deal-maker in the world is displaying himself as a failure. Donald Trump can't make a deal to save his life as the shutdown drags on causing much misery and causing a loss of personnel as government workers find paying jobs and leave their current jobs.

Donald Trump is a loser who acquired wealth from his father and nearly lost it all.

Even when Donald Trump had a GOP House and Senate majority he couldn't get his agenda through the legislative branch of government.

The demise of Donald Trump. The greatest deal-maker has turned into the biggest loser.

Is $5.7 billion a lot of money? Not in terms of federal spending.

Donald Trump was elected president partly by assuring the American people that “I alone can fix it.”
But precisely two years into his presidency, the government is not simply broken — it is in crisis, and Trump is grappling with the reality that he cannot fix it alone.

Trump’s management of the partial government shutdown — his first foray in divided government — has exposed as never before his shortcomings as a dealmaker. The president has been adamant about securing $5.7 billion in public money to construct his long-promised border wall, but he has not won over congressional Democrats, who call the wall immoral and have refused to negotiate over border security until the government reopens.

The 30-day shutdown — the impacts of which have begun rippling beyond the federal workforce into the everyday lives of millions of Americans — is defining the second half of Trump’s term and has set a foundation for the nascent 2020 presidential campaign. ...

 

[easyt65]

Remember that photo of Trump sitting between 2 empty chairs because Pelosi and Schumer refused to talk to Trump?

They are doing a repeat.

Snowflakes are trying to blame Trump for not being able to negotiate a deal with a woman / Speaker who just tried to flee the country during her shutdown then walked away from DACA while declaring once again she refuses to negotiate / compromise.


BWUHAHAHAHAHA....

Going to be a lot of federal pensions that will drop out. This will save billions in long term obligations.

Trump is not a deal maker; Trump is a con artist.

Trump took money from his daddy & went bankrupt a few times.

After that Trump could not obtain loans from legitimate US sources so, Trump had to resort to obtaining financing from European, Saudi, and Russian sources.

If Trump ever did actually make a 'deal' he made it with Satan & with Putin.

Trump has no interest in making any deal while in The White House as Trump is already 'set.'

Trump is bad at putting togather deals - True or False?

The lone deal he got done, just barely, with Republican majorities no less - is tax cuts.

Healthcare? Fail.
Infrastructure? Fail.
Immigration reform and border security? Failing bad.

Trump and his supporters are learning a hard lesson: what might work in the private sector as ‘deal making’ doesn’t work in the public; successful deal making in politics requires consensus and compromise – concepts completely alien to the authoritarian Trump.

Not only has Trump failed to ‘fix’ anything, he’s only made matters worse – Trump’s government shutdown being the most recent example.

What works in the private sector absolutely works in the political sector. Trump just forced a poison pill down democrat throats. It was well done too.

I think at this point the reason why average Joe republican still likes Trump is because his level of stupidity finally makes it easy for him to understand everything he is saying and that is refreshing for him. Sure, Bush was stupid, but he still spoke with a level of eloquence and nuance from time to time so of course average Joe just tuned him out after about 5 minutes or so. All average Joe republican needs to hear these days is that a wall will be built on the southern border and all of his problems will be solved because of it. America will become a Utopia somehow. Easy solutions just feel good. Feeling is what they are best at.

What is especially hilarious about Adolf Trump's retarded negotiating style is that he's trying to bargain by offering to give back things - that he previously took away.
