Chain of events in the DACA, debt ceiling is batcrap insane.
GOP calls for 18 month extension; goes down to 6 months
Pelosi/Schumer say 3 months - and Trump agrees, with the Dem leadership.
How it went down, per source:
-GOP pushed for 18 mo debt limit hike. Then 6 mo
-Dems dismissed 6 mo. Pitched 3 mo
-Trump then agreed to 3 mo— Sarah Ferris (@sarahnferris) September 6, 2017
The worst negotiators in history (otherwise known as Republicans) have just offered to suspend debt ceiling for four months. Pathetic!

Today, @realDonaldTrump appears to have taken deal to extend the debt ceiling for 3 months & do #Harvey aid. There’s a tweet for all he does https://t.co/zsGog8r84x

Then as that goes down, Ivanka comes in and things completely go off the rails?
Hill aide said Ivanka Trump came in to Oval during WH meeting to say hello and the meeting careened off topic.

“Careened”
1) Why does she have ongoing access while meeting occurring?
2) Kelly doesn’t have control?
3) @realDonaldTrump has no discipline https://t.co/Fhq5D7Par3— lawhawk (@lawhawk) September 6, 2017
What the hell is Ivanka doing just coming/going as she pleases? Meeting ongoing with Congressional leaders and she just traipses right in?
Trump has absolutely no idea what he’s doing. He has no discipline, and neither does anyone else around him other than perhaps Kelly, who’s incapable of imposing discipline on anyone in the Trump cabal. It’s impossible to control events, when Trump can simply ignore everything and do as he pleases and his kids can come running into the room whenever they see fit to do/say whatever they want.
The entire admin is a bunch of terrible toddlers with no impulse control.
