Government Shutdown Averted? Trump Punts On Border Wall, Will Wait Until September

In what may the flip-flop that resonates the most among his core voter base, Trump said that contrary to recent reports that the White House demands funding for Trump's proposed wall along the Mexican border be part of the spending bill - which has become a wildcard whether the government is shut on Friday night or not - Trump said on Monday that he is "open to waiting until later this year" to secure funding for said wall, a flop that would clear the way for Congress to strike a deal to avoid a government shutdown on Saturday, the WSJ reported.

To be sure, Schumer was delighted:

"It’s good for the country that President Trump is taking the wall off the table in these negotiations,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) said in a statement Monday night. Earlier Monday, Mr. Schumer had said the wall was a “nonstarter” for Democrats. “Now the bipartisan and bicameral negotiators can continue working on the outstanding issues,” he said.

We don't know the reasons behind this. It could be he had to acquiesce on this in return for their backing on something else (i.e. North Korea). And worse case if he doesn't follow through with his promises, he'll be a one term president.

The point is that the Marmalade In Chief (MIC) tapped into the frustration held by an angry populace and said all the right things to get elected and was given all the free press he wanted by the tightly controlled media outlets. The lazy Les Gullibles didn't bother thinking about the ability of the MIC to actually be able to accomplish any of his promises. They simply figured if the media said something bad about him he must be good or some such nonsense.

Media control...right there under your very eyes...
