    Fake news..

    The wall funding is not off the table..

    The president would consider other options and the administration was looking at ways to find the money elsewhere, Sanders said.
    If the wall gets funding it gets funding. The government shut down was about the wall not getting funding.

    MAGA could be evolving? That would be 3D Chess and keep them guessing who will actually pay.

    Mexico will pay for the Wall => Military will pay for the Wall



    I'm not buying conspiracy theories that he's fooling GOP base with fakenews slogans and promises and taking real policy directions from GOP-Adelson wing's top funder.

    Scott Adams predicted about a week ago that the wall would get funded, but that the media would report that it didn't get funded. The wall will get built, and the media will deny that it got built. It's literally the same thing that has been happening for 2 years. You of all people have to see it by now?

    You can post all the fake news threads you want, doesn't mean they are inline with reality.

    Whether or not Mexico will pay for the wall eventually after it is funded out of the military budget is a separate question from whether it will be funded and built at all.

    I'm agnostic about the wall and would much prefer that the border be protected with a massive increase in patrols by the military or an expanded Border Patrol but most of Trump's supporters want the wall and they want it even if Mexico doesn't end up paying for it.

    You could also say that Mexico will pay for it just due to the reduced costs from illegal aliens that we will have that they would otherwise have benefited from.

    Sad that both Drudge and Foxnews have joined fakenews machine:

    McConnell says Senate will vote on stopgap to avert shutdown – without new border wall funding

    By Alex Pappas | Fox News

    Majority Leader Mitch McConnell announced Wednesday the Senate will consider a stopgap measure to continue funding the government and avert a shutdown later this week – but it won’t include President Trump’s desired $5 billion for border wall funding because of the “reality of our political moment.”
    “Later this morning, we’ll introduce a continuing resolution that will ensure continuous funding for the federal government,” McConnell, R-Ky., said on the Senate floor. “The measure will provide the resources necessary to continue normal operations through February 8th.”
    The announcement comes as Congress faces a Friday deadline to fund a portion of the government or risk a partial shutdown. Lawmakers had been at a standstill over the president’s demands for $5 billion to fund the border wall.
    The stopgap measure doesn’t include new funding for a border wall – something Democrats have opposed.

    If the wall gets funding it gets funding. The government shut down was about the wall not getting funding.
    If he makes a successful deal and secures funding before 2020 election, he could still build it during 2nd term if voters gave him 2nd chance to MAGA.
