TRUMPY. HERE'S YOUR TRUMPY BEAR TRUMP CARD: The Trump Card is for Trump to NOT sign a budget Bill until the wall is fully COMPLETED, unless such budget funds the wall. 1. TRUMP Must USE THIS STRATEGY to Stave off the courts, who will lie in wait to jump in like a predator, if their cards are right. If Trump begins the wall with Military,and defense funds then if the Democrats sue, the courts will likely stay out of it because the result will still be a Government shut down no matter what the courts rule. The courts absolutely do not want to perpetuate the shutdown. 2. But if he starts the wall with military and defense funds, and then thinks its all going well and so he says well "who cares now so I'll so ill just sign the government funding bill" that does not include the wall. That's when the Courts will jump in and stop the wall. BY doing so the courts effect will only be the wall, and Trump will have lost his Trump card and the result will be no wall, and a signed government funding bill that has no wall, and illegal immigration continues to surge. TRUMP YOU MUST PLAY YOUR TRUMP CARD RIGHT ON THIS. If the Dems don't give you a bill with funding for the wall, declare an emergency, Build it and sign nothing until its done or they send you a bill allowing for completion in the mean time. Get this message to the White House. We the people are behind you on this.
He could have just used the 10 billion additional taxpayer dollars awarded to Mexico n central America for sending caravans of invaders.
Remember 1986, completed wall then deal.
The question is whether McConnell would support a veto override vote in the Senate to fund the government and instruct Republican Senators to support an override.
This is McConnell's historic pet peeve. I'm not totally convinced that Schumer can't turn McConnell against Trump on this matter.

No question this is a strategy to be mercilessly employed by the left/DNC.
It is likely we will see a half dozen cases, or more, where federal judges step in to halt the entire wall, indefinitely.
IF there is a budget/wall agreement, and therefore a budget is passed and signed into law, between the House, Senate, and President, this will be the reason - They know the “WALL” provision will be surgically extracted and blocked indefinitely by the courts. This will be done in such a way, as to eliminate any “Government Shut Down”, and leave President Trump without a way forward on the wall.
Yeah, at today’s news conference Trump told the reporters he could simply declare a national emergency and build the wall that way if he has to. It was priceless to watch the reporters as if he just released about 25lbs of air out of their tires!
Yes, there was shock in the air.
I recall when Mayor Daley the Younger wanted to get rid of Meigs Field in Chicago, he simply brought in the bulldozers and made a couple of Xes on the runaway in the dead of night. It was a fait accompli. Harder to do that with something you want to build as opposed to something you want to tear down, but it is a valid strategy.
Thanks. Somehow always a good speller but bad apostrophe user.
I think well be ok. Mitch is up for reelection in 2020. If he crosses trump he has a reelection fight in the same kentucky that elected anti establishment rand paul. Not to mention he owes his speakership a la 53 republicans to trump. Mitch only cares about mitch holding on to his power and he needs trump to do that.
All Trump has to do is ensure the bill he signs has a clause “Not Subject To Judicial Review”.
Like fish in a barrow weren’t they?
i like this argument, thanks for posting, and hopefully someone with connections to trump or trump himself reads this
