So Pence is probably shitting bricks, he's got Mexicans in the WH and Donald

probably said, "Get with them, make a deal, get them to do SOMETHING to curb migrants coming through! DO IT MIKE, Do it before I get back ! "

Meanwhile, it all touched a nerve....the money nerve only Republicans have. Senators have their Dior panties in a wad. Their phones have been ringing off the hook from rich donors with serious supply chain issues,leaving voice mail messages, "WTF ? Trump leaves town and we have to deal with Pence? WTF !".

How will this play out ???

My husband is is commercial lender...he says even his small clients in the middle of nowhere are exasperated. One day, Trump will threaten tariffs and the price on something they need goes up. The next week, he reneges, and prices go down - leaving them with an overpriced inventory. Then, he threatens again...on and on.

Donnie Two Scoops will reject.

This mess with Mexico will cost the Republicans some real money.

Is this where they will take a stand?

Wish was there was a good Mexican who will spill their guts and say "Hey, we agreed to nothing."

somehow, can't imagine trump praising pence for handling - unless he makes most of it about how HE was busy on very important international business.
