Allies of President Trump are growing increasingly concerned about the political impact of the partial government shutdown, which has now entered its fifth week.
Trump evinces confidence that he will prevail in the battle to secure funding for the southern border wall he promised at almost every opportunity during his 2016 campaign.
But even some veterans of his own White House arent sure he fully grasps the odds he faces.
The president jumped without looking first, said one former White House official. And can you imagine the humiliation the president would bring on himself if he caved and got little or nothing in return?

(36,836 posts)According to Donald, he does not need democrat votes to get the money.
He does not need to negotiate in good faith.
He can just declare his 'national emergency'.
