GOP looks to jam Democrats in shutdown fight - Page 5

But where are the good news that we will get something fixed for us?


I said this before you guys prefer the Trump government to go up in flames and have Dreamers like me deported rather than have a quick solution done between the two parties because many of you expire after 2018.

I-601As are done administratively by some bored lifetime employee in a cubicle somewhere in depressing town of Lincoln, Nebraska. Honestly who runs USCIS matters very little. Also one more thing to consider, USCIS is DHS, not DOJ. Also surprisingly the waivers nobody has touched or even mentioned thus far. The office I currently work at is doing them and so far we have a 100% approval rate, even during the Trump admin.

Unlawful presence waivers aren't trivial, but they aren't hard.

Honestly it was going to get ugly one way or another. The difference is that insults came before the meeting and not after, the Pelosi and Schumer took their ball and went home. So right now it's really a question of when Republicans break. Not if, lets be honest how long can you keep a shutdown going before you concede and before people will start calling for your public execution.

Only thing DNC needs are spambots saying "Dotard can't keep government open with both houses of congress. #SAD"

the democrats have the leverage and they're not budging as of now. thats the good news.

Dreamers like me? wtf does that even mean, we are all Dreamers here.

what quick solution do u want bro?

In general Republican leadership has not been trying to work with the democrats on this. You can give whatever articles you want, but when the Republican leadership doesn’t bring to vote bills with bipartisan support, or flat out says DA if off the table for the omnibus bill, you can’t honestly say the Democrats are the reason to blame if nothing is passed.

I am blaming the democrats because of the way they walked out on POTUS yesterday because of a tweet. That is not how you get things done.

You know how republicans are, they are not going to give in and go crying to Democrats.

**Facepalm**

Bruh that was the best possible decision taken at the moment.

I still dont see how. The article OP posted tells me that the Republicans will just move on.

Supposedly you only need 6 votes from democrats to get this bill rolling.

6 Votes that is nothing, 6 democrats can flip and that is it.


So tell me how is this the best possible action taken? Just man the fuck up, ignore the tweet and face POTUS.

And I blame Donny and his impaired reasoning. So much for a great negotiator.

They don’t have the votes. Why do you ignore that? They don’t have them in the House nor the Senate. The damn article is mentioning a scenario. Highly unlikely.
