BORDER WALL BOMBSHELL! Trump Just SENT Chuck Schumer PACKING After WHAT HE BLAMED
the Senate scrambling as the clock takes to avoid a partial government shutdown
at midnight tonight a live look at the Senate floor where Republicans are
attempting to move forward on a procedural vote but it's unclear if they
have the numbers to go forward over at the White House the president trying to
place the potential blame at Democrats feet it's really up to the Democrats
totally up to the Democrats as to whether or not we have a shutdown I hope
we don't but we're totally prepared for a very long shutdown and this is our
only chance that we'll ever have in our opinion because of the world and the way
it breaks out to get great water security Senate Minority Leader Chuck
Schumer saying Trump would be at fault and Democrats will not be budging on any
extra funding for the border wall President Trump you will not get your
wall abandon your shutdown strategy you're not getting the wall today next
week or on January 3rd when Democrats take control of the house
Jessie everybody is kind of figure out what's the endgame here how does the
president play out the strategy what do you think I don't see the endgame wand I
really don't I mean if he has a bill that gets to his desk and it doesn't
have wall funding he vetoes it or he signs it and he says I tried but if he
vetoes it it just goes back and then everything gets shut down and then maybe
it shut down for a week at most and then the Democrats come in and take over and
they never send him anything with any wall funding and you're back to square
one so I don't see the endgame I guess maybe he's just trying to signal to the
people that he's gonna fight but he has to find more creative ways in the budget
to build this wall the wall has to be built and that's his signature promise
and he wasted the first time with it and McConnell didn't deliver the first
opportunity and it's a shame but if they get rid of the filibuster which they
won't you could get a wall you get a lot of stuff the other side we get stuff
this side we get but the way that the system is designed
in the Senate 60 votes for these spending bills you're never going to get
what you want and you're just going to use the shutdown as leverage time and
time again and then we have to talk about how boring it is let's not talk
about it's boring because in fact it's a hot issue in public opinion Quinnipiac
has a poll out 54-43 no need for a while 62% of Americans opposed to a shutdown
but among Republicans 59 to 33 say yes to the wall right but also have it
imagine that 60% of Democrats say well it's more than I mean it's like it's the
same so it's quite partisan I thought that the language that Ted Cruz used
earlier today was interesting I think you'll hear more that coming from
Republicans that the Democrats are extreme and their partisan and that the
president is the one who is middle-of-the-road on this and
commonsensical some of them pointing back to February there remember the
President had the cameras in and it was in the Cabinet Room and was that most
amazing meeting that anyone ever seen that deal at the time would have given
like 25 billion dollars plus it had the daca fix so it's like you keep going
back like gosh maybe that was the deal that they should have had and taken back
then but the Democrats are so dug in on saying no that I just read that Brian
Schatz the senator from Hawaii he had left it's 11 hour flight to Hawaii he
flew back 11 hours just to vote no so everyone is quite Duggan you know Greg I
know that your position is you know things happen right yeah but it's not
making it's a lot making a lot of people and conservative talk radio the Ann
Coulter's the Rush Limbaugh's right they're like what are you doing you
can't allow the Democrats to rape what would Greg Gutfeld
advise President Trump to do oh that's a great question I would say that he's
watching I know you know what okay here's when I look when I listen to this
I find this to be very foolish it reminds me and I hate to use this the
yani or Laurel thing remember that yeah so it was blue Trump Trump is managed
to get Democrats to agree that having a strong border is important because
whenever they get in the conversation all the Democrats including you want
have said it I want a strong border everybody say that so he gets everybody
said then he goes okay a wall they go whoo-hoo-hoo not a wall so it's actually
they actually both sides agree but the Democrats are hung up on language they
are hung up on language because it's the word it's the word wall so might I quote
somebody hmm Scott yes God Adam why not adjust the length adjust the language if
it's a wall or if it's a fence who cares call it a wince right that's a that's a
Scott Adams president Trump one's gonna call it steals lat well oh this is
amazing to me steel slats sounds fantastic to me that sounds like
something pretty cool you can move it around but you know Democrats will say
that this is the wrong way to cut immigration right because most of the
illegal immigration is overstayed visas right that's like saying I don't like a
fork because it won't cut my meat well you have a knife for that so you have a
fork and a knife so you can have a wall strong border and then you can then you
can address that other stuff so the arguments are either emotional flawed or
pigheaded when it really everybody wants the same thing but they won't give in
so Jenna died if we do have a shutdown at midnight you're going to see I think
it's 800,000 federal workers you know 47 of them percent of them will not even
come to work the rest come to work they won't be paid until the government
reopens and we don't get their backpack right but then you have federal
contractors out of work - the the the state department says they'll keep doing
visas restrooms some of the state federal parks are going to be closed
what do you think's gonna be the reaction well I think from the right I
mean people got very nervous when they thought he wasn't gonna dig his heels in
when he kind of wavered for a second and they thought oh he said he wouldn't be
afraid to shut the government down now he is afraid I think he's already done
what he needs to do regardless of how this works out he's now gonna be the guy
who was willing to go through with a government shutdown to dig his heels in
and say I'm willing to do that partial government shutdown
he's also proving that he's willing to take on the language and say this is a
Democrat shutdown he's taken on the language when it comes to what a
shutdown actually looks like that it's not
this you know Armageddon that the left always painted us that so many essential
government functions still keep working I just think it's interesting I watched
Chuck Schumer and he says you're not gonna get your wall as if the wall is
for President Trump the wall is for the United States of America it's for our
national security it's to address the humanitarian crisis at the border
these are we're talking about resources for Border Patrol agents you just had a
little girl died crossing in horrific conditions so this idea that he's not
giving him the money despite Trump you're not spying Trump you're spying
American citizens and your spy ting all of those poor people who are being
incentivized to come and cross this border under
these horrific conditions so I think Democrats should take a minute and
really reflect on that and I know it sounds good to oppose the wall but think
about what you're actually opposing which is addressing national security
and the Amana terian credit and humanitarian crisis that's happening at
the border so LEM I think he's already done what do you have to do so Jenna die
you are so lucky it's like Santa delivered for you because you got a
Democrat at the table so I would say to you hey Jedediah I think President Trump
said Mexico's gonna pay for the world yeah well and you know I said no a
million times he should have never been on record saying that because it was
highly unlikely that that was gonna happen but the bottom line is I mean you
have people opening go fund me accounts in this country to say you know what if
the government's not going to do it we're gonna do it that shouldn't be the
case the primary responsibility of the government is to protect its citizens
and that includes border security okay so one final question on this for
everybody so Jesse laid out a potential endgame a way that the president could
get out of it which is to say look I really did my best I have tried with
these Democrats I even put went to the point I think Jared I have put picked up
on this I'm saying we're going to shut down the government so will rush
limbaugh The Drudge Report Breitbart well people like that say you know what
mr. president you did your best with those doggone Democrats yeah I mean
listen if he goes out out and does weaken as much as you can and you look
at Mitch McConnell or you look at the House Republicans and you say you know
what they didn't deliver with the two years they had majorities but even then
you still need 60 votes you still need 60 votes you got a new
kid that's what you got to do you got a nuke option or nothing
it's break when he starts hammering the tables
though you know it is watching politicians debate over the over the
wall is like watching Dana and I try to get something down from a high shelf
because there is no expertise right and I think that was the mistake at the
beginning of this was not introducing expertise into this problem and said it
started with a price it's like if you or not if you were gonna go renovate your
house you don't say I'm gonna spend this you know you're gonna figure out what
you want to renovate do I need do I need a table here do I need a putt and then
you come up with a budget this is I was gonna say ass-backwards can I say that I
think what we needed and is is like engineering expertise somebody that says
okay this is what maybe you have a wall here maybe you don't have a wall here
and then you come up with it but instead we started from the reverse so that
might be a compromise well how about our public relations
expert in this Perino what would you suggest well I don't know how it's gonna
come down but I do think that there was something that the president and his
administration was able to do yesterday that got buried it didn't get enough
attention it was actually quite impressive very impressive secretary of
Department of Homeland Security Kirsten Nielsen announced that they have
reached this deal with Mexico let's not dealer that basically said to Mexico
they're going to basically house or hold the asylum seekers so you you are a
migrant you come across you get processed but then you wait in Mexico
that's a really big deal and the administration has done lots of
different things that are a part of the whole cutlery set yes right so there's a
spoon a knife a fork the dessert spoon everything that they've tried to do all
of that smaller knife there's a lot of things that they're
doing outside of the wall that could either give them some cover with their
base but also to let the American people know that they're not just waiting for
five billion dollars for steel slats for a wall they actually that's really
impressive and she deserves some credit for that she of course it got buried
because of all the other breaking sure and also the Supreme Court had a ruling
Jedidiah that said the administration cannot put a cap on the number of people
seeking asylum it was an interesting vote because the Chief Justice John
Robert boated with the Liberals against the administrator
as true as well and I would also say about the dollar value I think it's
interesting there's been a lot of debate about the five billion dollars people
need to remember he's not just pulling that number out of thin air I mean he's
talking to Border Patrol agents he's talking to the people at the border and
they're telling him this is what we need this is what's insufficient so you know
Chuck Schumer doesn't get to aside what's decide what's appropriate amount
of money and and frankly neither does Donald Trump he he is working with the
people on the border so these numbers exist for a reason because he's getting
it from the people who are there trying to process people trying to get them in
buses in these remote areas to other locations trying to make sure that the
proper medical supplies are there and also trying to contain what's going on
so that number had there's a reason at that five billion dollars in terms of a
monetary value even exists by the way Gregg does he go to Maura Largo if the
government shuts there well I'll talk to him later actually I'm gonna hitching a
ride with them I serve drinks on the plane on the sleigh ride thank you god
bless you and God bless america
