trump: I will shut down the government without wall funding
pelosi: how about don't shut down the government, no wall funding, ease up on daca, and go fk yourself?
trump: K.
With Hurricane Harvey relief funding hanging in the balance, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) made it clear: something had to be done.
“If this isn’t the definition of an emergency, I don’t know what is,” McConnell said.
But making a deal with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)? McConnell did not seem thrilled by that prospect.
Nevertheless, President Donald Trump persisted and abandoned the GOP to make a deal with Democrats to fund the government for the next three months, avoiding a shutdown.
McConnell acknowledged it bluntly.
“In the meeting down at the White House… the President agreed with Senator Schumer and Congresswoman Pelosi,” McConnell said.
