Trump worried he'll 'look foolish' by accepting Democrats' proposal to reopen government

President Trump has rejected Democrats' offer to at least temporarily fund agencies including the Department of Homeland Security because he claims he would look silly, according to a new report.

Trump — who has been embroiled in a dispute with Democrats over border security — met with a bipartisan group of lawmakers on Wednesday and claimed he "would look foolish” if he accepted Democrats’ proposal to end the partial shutdown, CNN reports. Democrats are planning to introduce two spending bills this week, one of which would allow Homeland Security to operate at 2018 levels until Feb. 8.

According to CNN, Trump’s comment came after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., repeatedly pressed Trump on why he refused to accept the plan. In total, nine federal government departments have been closed since last month as a result of the partial shutdown.

I think that Trump is probably responding to the reaction by Republicans to the constant reports from his own administration he is negotiating the wall away.

CNN reports this today:

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.

I like to see articles from a lot of different sources. Even the leftist propaganda sites.  I will point out articles from "Think Progress" as bullshit.

What matters is this is what's being fed to the liberal leftist mental midgets who believe all this crap...they are foaming at the mouths waiting now for the impeachment process to begin.  The wall never getting built, amnesty, DACA and will do ANYTHING to ensure that Trump is a one term president.

IF the Senate doesn't support this President and he caves on the wall, he will be a one term president and the GOP will lose even more seats in 2020.

Yes, not only would he look foolish if he caves on the wall, but he will have given all of the Trumpers the middle finger.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Remember the ‘fake news’ about Trump saying ‘shithole’ countries? Later on, we found it was actually ’shithouse’ countries. So, you can believe he said something equivalent to ‘It would make me look foolish.’
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.
