Schumer Shutdown was successful, McConnell blinked. Sickening that amnesty is now queued up in a few weeks. Will Republicans ever grow a pair?!
Anyone got a different interpretation?

I guess they will have to vote on it in order to know what it is.

We don’t know what the deal is yet - any Senate bill has to be approved by House, then Conference. Any Bill without the Pillars (Border Security, End to Chain Migration) won’t be approved by Trump ... so don’t sweat it at this time ...

Jeff Kuhner ( 680am WRKO Boston listen online and via IHeart ) is talking about it now....
Love me Lindsey and McConnell shafted us by giving Smuckey a life line. We had them on the ropes and they shafted PDJT even more than us.

Not that I’ve been paying close attention, been a busy day at work, but all I’ve seen is that they’re having a vote. Didn’t see what on.

Do they have enough votes to override veto ?

Ryan agreed to bring the Goodlatte Bill to the floor by the end of Feb, to get the House votes last week.

They kicked it down the road.

>>>Schumer Shutdown was successful, McConnell blinked.
I don't think so. I think it's the other way around and if anything, it's just kicking the can down the road. Schumer blinked. We will revisit all of this on the 8th. I doubt they can get DACA written in 3 weeks and thus, we are facing the exact same thing in 3 weeks.

What do you mean “gives up”? That’s the definition of the GOP-e, to act like they are different from the Dems (in word only) but be transparently exactly like them.

Exactly. I think they did it because "Schumer shutdown" was starting to stick. This gives them three weeks to figure a way to blame Trump and McTurtle on going back on the deal that opened the government back up today. Bank on it.

I’ll wait for the Trump tweet for clarification. It’s about the only place we get the truth theses days.
