Mulvaney: Trump's "willing to do whatever it takes" to get his wall, including another shutdown
White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney told CBS’ “Face the Nation” that Trump’s goal is to work with Congress.
“What he wants to do is fix this the way that things are supposed to get fixed with our government which is through legislation,” Mulvaney said.
Mulvaney said the president didn’t want another shutdown, but he would do it if necessary.
“Keep in mind he’s willing to do whatever it takes to secure the border,” he said.

I mean, does he really think that if this plays out again in three weeks, the results will be any different?
And his opening gambit, once again, is "I'll be proud to own this shutdown"?
Dems have got to be shaking in their boots.
After a resounding victory by Speaker Pelosi and Senator Schumer, I have to believe that the Democrats in the House and Senate are feeling MUCH better about their position, as well as the support that has grown for them over the lock-out.
This can only give them even more backbone to stand up to the hollow BS that IQ45 will try to throw out there in the coming weeks leading up the the next deadline.
This is the REAL BASE speaking:
BE STRONG - YOU ARE RIGHT - WE SUPPORT YOU!!!!!!!
