Democratic Unity
Trump repeatedly predicted to advisers that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) would cave and surmised that she had a problem with the more liberal members of her caucus. But she held firm, and her members stayed united.
Seems like wishful thinking to the point of self-delusion. Even supposing she did have problems with the left of her party, why in the world would that work to his advantage in the matter of a border wall? Or am I missing some great clamoring on the left for a border wall?
