True fact: Someone has to follow the president around with a baggie. It's hard to tell yet whether the "save the DREAMers" deal Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi said Donald Trump agreed to over dinner Wednesday night is anything but wishful thinking, but since it's a Trump promise, let's just assume he'll break it first chance he gets. Or, more likely, Schumer and Pelosi presented what they think is a good idea for a bill to protect those who'll otherwise be deported when their work permits end, and Trump said "yes" very eagerly with no idea what he was saying yes to. As it was, the White House had already issued a partial retraction of one part of what Schumer said Trump had agreed to before the pixels were even dry on most news websites, and by this morning, Trump had taken to Twitter to deny both that he agreed to anything
It is all but obvious how quickly Trump buckles under when trying to actually negotiate. The dirty secret is that Trump has no notion how to actually conduct his bogus "Art of the Deal". Time after time when confronted by smarter people than him, he kowtows for lack of intellectual capacity to counter any argument. Hence when anyone walks out of a meeting with Trump, they are convinced he is on their side, only to be double-crossed by a tweet the next morning stating the opposite.
I have a really, seriously, hard time believing the President has discovered he has a soul. There simply has to be something in it for him if he is expected to act human. What was it the character Admiral Ackbar said? Oh, yeah, something about a trap.
It's starting to get embarrassing how every time Trump takes an inconsistent position on an issue he doesn't understand WaPo and the NY Times jump on it as a new strategy.
Even if the DACA deal doesn't stick, Nancy and Chuck are doing a great job of fucking with Republicans.
I do not know what Republicans are so upset about. They wanted a guy with no experience or knowledge of government, to come in and make deals and shake things up. Personally, I don't care to be shook up, as it spills my beer. Then again, I'm not a Republican.
I'm beginning to think DonnieBoy enjoys the witty repartee and joie de vivre company of Chuck and Nancy much more than Mitch and Lil Paulie. I mean, after tax cut charts and serpent handling, what would they talk about ?
You are too kind.
A real 10.

That's prolly gonna take a lot more than legislating DACA.
I'm around the corner ordering it right now with an egg roll.

I'm going to write the Pegs Noonan piece but first I have to polish off this fifth of vodka.
It's tasty. Won't supplant egg foo young as my go to meal, tho.

Da comrade, hope eet ees da goot stuff !
Moo goo gai pan? Not Donnie! Only real Chinese food like chop suey and egg foo yung with extra ketchup for our boy.
I imagine Chuck and Nancy were discussing legislation and Trump was eating and not paying attention.
"...and we really need to protect the Dreamers with a bill..."Don (chewing eggroll): "Mmmmf! I love it!"

Not to mention having to deal with one person who has strongly held differing opinions than he held a few moments before.
Trump: "Serpent handling? You're talking about the size of my dick again, aren't you? Motherfuckers. Chuck and Nancy don't insult me like this."
But it also will never get built, just like his other vanity projects
