With a snowstorm for the mid-Atlantic region,
and the government in a partial shutdown, on Friday
more than 30 Democrats headed to Puerto Rico with 109 lobbyists and
corporate executives for the weekend to discuss their “shared
priorities” and to attend a performance of the play, "Hamilton".

Meanwhile, Trump sits in his office hoping for a phone call
responding to any of his numerous offers to end
the shutdown.

Too bad no one trusts Trump to make good on his promises when negotiating.



Unfortunately, there are no negotiations. He's made several offers.
The Dems have offered nothing in return. Too busy soaking up the rays
and hobnobbing with lobbyists at cocktail parties, I guess.


The Dems have nothing to lose, other than face, by accepting one of his offers. He opens gov back up, then they talk about the wall.

Democrats don't give a **** about the American public, they only care about themselves and being able to declare a "victory".



Actually, the goal is to prevent Trump from being able to declare victory.
