If you can't see how corrupt the Democrats and mainstream media is when dealing with President Trump after this whole Shutdown deal then you can't be helped. They hammered him & blamed him for the shut down. Now they're mocking him with "#TrumpCaved" and more for ending it today.
They all know we need a wall but they don't care about the workers not getting paid, which is why they turned down votes to even pay our Coast Guard, took off on vacations, sent aides to the White House to do their "negotiations", and refused offers from Trump before presented.
They see his announcement today as some sort of victory for them. It's a victory for the workers that they claimed to care about but consistently voted against paying. No mistake: Republicans are the only ones in DC that are happy that government employees are getting paid again.
This shutdown wasn't personally hurting Trump even a little. He's worth $3.1B and gives away his @POTUS paychecks. He could have held out forever and it wouldn't have caused him one ounce of personal difficulty. He opened up the government simply to get people back to work.
The landslide of media articles of keyboard warriors mocking him for "caving" and the late-night shows will have a field day. He knows that, but he personally doesn't care what they think. He cares about the safety and security and success of every law-abiding citizen of the USA.
He knows the zealots will never budge on their goal of opening up our borders & they don't care who is hurt. That includes people who are murdered by illegals and people going without paychecks due to the government shut down. Congress has 3 weeks before he declares an Emergency.
