Yeah, I'll concede Trump learned a lesson. But it isn't one Chump Schumer is going to like. Either the Dems give the wall money, or they appear to hate America. Gov't (as in .gov) employees already know Dems really hate them, even though most voted Dem.
Use your heads for more than a hat rack, Trump just flipped the optics, now HE is the adult, reasonable one, AFTER the Dummy Rats already showed their real colors.
The Lamestream Media only controls if you watch them. Most don't. Besides, they just played his "caving" into his hands. Figure it out.
Lots of people will see this. Trump accepted opening the government to pay people, AFTER the left refused to negotiate. Besides, I'd wager we see some Dems (as in enough) "cross the aisle" to pass wall funding, even though Chump and Nutty Nancy won't support it. Get off CNN and get your news elsewhere, as I've seen this as likely, using the LEFTs own news sources (just not CNN).
And, by your terms, we've already lost, so you might as well beat the rush and just KYS.
