I get the sense that we’re close to a shutdown resolution, and I hope I’m right.

The GOP understands — and Trump might too — that the concept of the “Wall” as a structure is never happening, and a good portion of the still base wouldn’t be happy if it did.
The promise is already broken. Trump has already walked back the concept of a “grand wall from sea to shining sea”

This will not please the Ann Coulter (read: racist) faction of the party, no matter how many “steel slats” we put up.
This was always an utterly irrelevant exercise in political theater, anyway:

Even if Congress *does* appropriate all 5 point whatever billion Trump wants, the wall isn’t getting built: it will be held up in litigation by landowners for decades.
Here’s the news I was looking for: the Senate is getting crushed in polls.

Hopefully they’ll do their jobs.
