We all know Trump needs a victory. The ‘Lil Kim peace agreement has fallen shorter than Trump’s fingers. The steel auto and coal magnates are showing the same care to Trump’s demands as Melania does to hurricane victims — none.
So I figure it falls to the Dems to give Trump the big win he needs. We have to find a way to fund his wall. And I think I have found a way.
SPEAKER PELOSI: “In the spirit of bipartisanship, will will help fund up to SIX BILLION dollars, more than he has asked, for President Trump’s wall.
We will propose to fund match Mexico, dollar for dollar, up to three billion dollars from our side. Combined with Mexico’s three billion dollars, this will give President Trump his wall.
Given President Trump’s self-reported mastery of negotiations, we assume, after two years, a deal is imminent and this is the time to fund this project on these terms.
We will give the President the full fiscal year to secure Mexico’s funds for us to match. However, should the president find himself unable to secure funding from Mexico, we will instead redirect those three billion dollars of matching funds to Non Governmental Immigrant and Refugee assistance programs .”
Shalom.
