i’ve watched this for days and it only just occurred to me

trump is ‘negotiating with’ / ‘meeting with’ pelosi and schumer

not mcconnell

i just kept passing over it as nothing. this morning i said, whoa

what does this say and what does it look like?
sure, we all know

and it’s still really stupid

aside from conflating the shutdown with the wall, that pelosi will in short order separate,

trump should be meeting with the *leaders* of both houses

trump has publicly tipped his hand about who he thinks is in control - it’s schumer, not mcconnell
