      I haven't written on the shutdown because in the years I spent negotiating on a daily basis as a defense lawyer, one thing I learned was you can't analyze a negotiation strategy effectively if your negotiating partner is irrational. Trump's shutdown can't be competently analyzed.

      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.

          I really want to know what Trump and the Russians have on McConnell. He's got to know that Trump isn't someone to tie his wagon to.

          A given. The real question is how is McConnel's covert deceit tied to Trump (and the Russians, for that matter).

          When will folks figure out this whole thing is a distraction from Mueller closing in on Trump & his rallying his base with a non-existent problem? Trump will burn down the country if he feels it will provide him with some kind of cover. Just read his "How can you impeach" tweets.

          *This* is chilling and confirms my fears that Trump could weasel his way into declaring martial law. He said he's contemplated using emergency powers to build the wall. How much more of a leap is it to martial law?https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-shutdown-wall-idUSKCN1OY1VK …

          Give him time. Trust that he is both a patriot and the consummate professional. If he needs additional time to tie up loose ends....or reel in slippery co-conspirators with confession statements or plea-agreements, then he needs that time.

          There are only a handful of people on the planet who do as much harm to humanity as Putin, Trump & McConnell. Perhaps Dutarte & KJ Un belong there too. OH and MbS and Bolsonaro. My point is that this small cluster of MEN, including McConnell, are hurting MILLIONS of people.
