President Trump teased another spending bill battle Sunday, warning that he would be willing to "shut down" the government over border security.

"I would be willing to 'shut down' government if the Democrats do not give us the votes for Border Security, which includes the Wall! Must get rid of Lottery, Catch & Release etc. and finally go to system of Immigration based on MERIT! We need great people coming into our Country!" Trump tweeted.

Haven’t we seen this already?

Empty words, Mitch and Ryan are daring him to shut it down.

I sincerely wish he would but doubt he will.

...hmm... I'm still waiting for a showdown!
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

I sense that Mr. Trump could actually pull this off and come out ahead...

I agree. The previous shutdowns were all bark and no bite. The electorate even started questioning the concept of nonessential government employees.

Then it could be a win-win.

Yes, nothing burger until it actually happens.  Fool me once, shame on you.  Fool me twice, shame on me.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

"The Art of War" by Sun Tzu includes a writing, whereby the best outcome of a battle or war, is by winning without actual battle-violence etc.

"For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill."

"God must love the common man, he made so many of them.�  Abe Lincoln

Sun Tzu never tipped his hand on Twitter, either.

But he damned sure would have used it to his advantage if it had been around when he was.
