As if dealing with a child throwing a tantrum, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi once again told Russian asset and bigot Donald "Rump" Trump that there will be no money for a wall in the House-Senate negotiations regarding border security:
Speaker Nancy Pelosi tells @jparkABC she will “of course” allow a floor vote on any bipartisan border security proposal crafted by appropriators, but adds, "there's not going to be any wall money in the legislation." https://t.co/jXTO08zNnB pic.twitter.com/k3mWStCUpM— ABC News (@ABC) January 31, 2019
Rump is now back to calling his vanity, manhood project a wall -- which Mexico was supposed to pay for -- after apparently being chastised by the extreme right for waffling on "barriers," "fencing," "steel slats," etc. While his Rethuglican enablers in the Senate outnumber the "dissidents," there seems to be little appetite among them for another Rump Government shutdown that tanked theirs and Rump's approval numbers. As for an "emergency" on the southern border, the intelligence community begs to differ, so his threat to declare a "national emergency" is hollow and foolish, much like its promoter.
