It'll have to be Senate pukes that decide to override him.

Eventually he'll probably declare national emergency and let the courts deal with it. But he won't cave. This is the last stand of a desperate man.

And every time the House blocks Trump's latest attack on America, he will declare another fake national emergency and just rule as a dictator.

The MSM will provide ample cover and whataboutisms for him, count on it!

And have ruined any chances of keeping the Senate or the Presidency. They are destroying the Republican party for decades with what they are all doing now. Add charges against trump and the party, and republicans in Congress they have a recipe for complete failure. They screwed up not opening up the government now, and its catching up to them.

He will end the shutdown soon as McTurtle says OK but will sign an Emergency Order to build the wall. This is known to be ineffective and will not get the wall built anytime soon at all, but he's pretending to do that to keep up the fiction to his idiotic base. So government gets opened and he continues his fiction but Russia doesn't get the wall built with Deripaska steel, and US economy isn't ruined, and what will PUtin do about that? Don't think he'll be pleased with Hair Furors' deceptions.
