CNN's first words were "Trump caved in", but I think Trump is a wheeler dealer and a sharp con man salesman that is up to something knowing full well that he is dealing with a woman psychopath that hates Trump and loves power.
Pelosi said not one dollar for the wall and she means it ... Trump may very well call this a National emergency if the democrat's don't come up with a solution. He doesn't have to have the whole 5.7 billion dollars all at once. He has already said he hopes to work out a friendly solution of a yearly budget for the wall.
I still think Trump will win in 2020 no matter who runs against him and then turn the WH over to VP Mike Pence (why is yet to be determined)
PS Glad Platapus and the other gov employees are going to finally get paid ... Maybe they will learn to keep a couple of paychecks in the savings account from now on.
