brilliant negotiator donnie has created a win-win for democrats to deny him a deal.
first, donnie has made it clear that he wants something, and one thing in particular, a wall.
that means that democrats basically lose by giving donnie what he wants.
in and of itself, that's not an impossible negotiating position, because deals are quite typically made with both side giving up something and getting something.
problem is, he has nothing real to give democrats other than by hostage-taking tactics of taking it away in the first place.
worse, he's created a political position for the democrats where democrats win simply by opposing him. we're standing up the the guy the majority of americans and the vast majority of democrats hate, and have been waiting two plus years for someone to stand up for him.
so we win simply by saying no, period.
so we win (no wall) by saying no and we win (standing up to donnie) by saying no.
meanwhile, donnie is desperate for something from democrats (funding for his stupid wall).
he's put himself in a terrible, terrible negotiating position.
horrible negotiator.
completely inept.
