2/ In other words, the only analysis of the shutdown worth a damn is an analysis that says Trump's mental and emotional pathologies are dangerous and mean the shutdown could last a few more hours or many months. That's been my perspective from the moment the government shut down.

3/ Trump's shutdown will therefore end whenever his dangerous mental and emotional pathologies permit it to—an unknowable in the equation—or Democrats decide to cave to Trump's instability, which would be just as dangerous a precedent as that instability is in the first instance.

4/ A third possibility, but one not worth discussing because Mitch McConnell is ultimately not a functioning human soul, would be the House and Senate bypassing Trump to strike a deal that's veto-proof. I think we're many weeks away from McConnell being willing to go that route.

@senatemajldr has been compromised by millions linked to Putin and his wife is on Trump's cabinet (conflict of interest and affront to the separation of powers). Both he and Trump seem determined to destroy America; together they have the power to do it by keeping gov't closed.Thanks. Twitter will use this info to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

I have a compromise. We'll fund the 5 billion for the wall if
@realDonaldTrump,@VP,@senatemajldr, and#Kavanaugh all turn in their resignations, effective immediately. -
They think the wall is a national emergency. I think they are traitors. So, it's a good compromise. They get their wall, and to be heroes to their base for their 'sacrifice'. We get them out of office and let President Pelosi start to fix the rest of the country. Win/win.

Someone needs to figure out an 'out' for Trump to save face. Until then nothing will happen.

He tries every day. On Twitter. By talking up..... himself. I highly doubt PR is on the list of things the administration itself suddenly is going to be able to cover up. Watergate they at least covered it up well. They aren't even trying anymore with this douchecanoe, Donald

Well Seth, as my Grandma Matra would say...(Trump) Is" about as useful as a steering wheel on a mule".
-
Fabulous but I'd amend that to say McConnell is the useless steering wheel on Trump as the mule.
-
and i would amend your amendment by suggesting that mcconnell is more like a second steering wheel located on the ass end of the trump mule.

That works!
