    This is a good distillation of Trump's negotiating style -- and why it so consistently failed.https://twitter.com/MattGlassman312/status/1343389894639558657 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Matt Glassman @MattGlassman312
    Step 1: refuse to engage publicly for months. Step 2: watch a supermajority pass a bill. Step 3: forcefully threaten to veto it unless demands met. Step 4: back down and sign it; look weak. As a bonus, you enrage your party and hang your SecTreas out to dry. What a world.

        Trump’s nonchalance towards public policy is his most reassuring quality among a large portion of his wealthy electorate. it’s a class war.

        He has actually vetoed the NDAA, not just threatened to veto it. And it passed with well over 2/3 of both Houses. This is an obedience test; he's working the phones trying to flip enough GOP Senators so Congress doesn't over-ride the veto.

        I mean it’s the military budget, I don’t think there’s an audience for that in the GOP

        Fun fact: If you sign a deal, you are unlikely to be successful renegotiating the deal you already closed.

        if this really was about $2,000 checks (which it wasn’t), why not wait to sign the omnibus/stimulus package until after the House passed the CASH Act, then tell McConnell you won’t sign it unless he passes the CASH Act first?
