Several Cable News reporters are reporting that there has been movement on ending the Trump border wall partial government shutdown…
While the outline isn’t known…
CNN’s Phil Mattingly seems to think that the budgets for the agencies and departments would be extended for several weeks as is….
There have been meetings between the Democrats and Republicans this morning …
This is guesses…
More to come …..
Update…
Senior administration officials expect @realDonaldTrump to endorse short-term funding bill to reopen government in next hour. Final details being worked out in WH convos now. Unclear if 2 or 3 weeks. Border debate will continue. Stress on Govt systems was increasing…..
Per @Phil_Mattingly & @kaitlancollins: Negotiators are moving toward an agreement on a deal to re-open the government, but it has not received final sign off from all sides, two sources familiar say. Chuck Schumer is in direct talks with the WH over finalizing the language…..
CBS News is reporting that President Trump will support a continuing resolution to reopen the government for three weeks. Which would mean that Trump has capitulated to Nancy Pelosi on SOTU and on the shutdown.
Twitter….
Note…
Donald Trump WILL BE doing exactly what House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told him he needed to do if he does what we think he will do…..
The midterm’s changed Trump’s world….
He’s tried to BS past that…
It hasn’t worked….

Speech summary…
Trump tries to dance around losing on this by trying to sell immigration as a ‘crisis’….
An a safety issue…..
Blaming crime on immigration, a fact that is incorrect….
Threaten a possible ‘national emergency ‘ move….
Remember…
He has threaten other things that have NOT happened….

Trump came to table it is reported after he saw the backup’s airport reports for LaGuardia, Newark and Philly….
jamesb says
Trump is also reported to try save face by saying he would call a national emergency border money grab if nothing gets done in 3 weeks….
There is no mention of immigration reform…
That should be in workings between the House and Senate…
Democrats STILL say no Wall Funding….
Feb. 13 is the new deadline….
In the end?
How is the wall money issue gonna be handled if Trump calls for a national emergency?

Just yesterday, Senate GOP blocked Dem effort to reopen the government until February 8 and allow border talks to proceed in interim. The reason: Trump’s opposed.
Today, Republicans are getting behind similar deal. Reason: Trump supports it….
