The Pubs can pass spending and taxing bill for the next two years with the simple majorities they have in both houses.
Why the hell are they Pubs even talking with Dems, much less “negotiating” with them?
What’s there to “negotiate”?
Because a good portion of the Republican party establishment including Ryan, never wanted a wall and still don’t. They hate that they can’t blame the Democrats. That’s one reason they wanted Hillary to win.
