Trump stuns Pelosi and Schumer in contentious debate over the border wall
Trump had a meeting with Pelosi and Chuck Schumer in front of the press the other day and Trump said he would close down government if they did not fund his border wall
That's right everyone! Trump said he will take the blame!
What great news for the Dims. In fact, I suggest they do this as soon as possible.
These strong arm tactics may have worked in Trumps business but he is playing a different game now. His lawyer/fixer just got put away for 3 years and he is now playing with the paychecks of thousands of Americans because he is unable to achieve results through diplomacy. The great uniter... yeah right!
well it's not as if IT WILL BE YOUR FAULT isn't a strong arm tactic to him. he's just saying "so".
in a sense, he's simply taking the power of the "insult" away from them.
it's like a child screaming YOU'RE A VERY MEAN PERSON THAT HATES KIDS!!! and the other person going "and"? the left has been packing bags for others guilt trips for quite some time with these "you're racist if you see it this way" or "you hate women if you don't whatever..." - and people would fold because they didn't want to be the defined "bad guy".
trump took that away. that's psychology more than strong arm tactics. pelosi continuing to say "let's not talk in front of the press" didn't help their "transparency" either.
many people are tired of the "bad guy tag" carrying weight and they applaud what trump did. that's all.
