and are surprised when they won't take it.

Only republican-russian smarmy sub butt kissers go for this low shit. Americans won't have it.

I suspect this is a negotiating tactic Trump has used all his life, designed to bring people to the table and have them give away the store before anything even gets said. The subtext is, as always, "If you don't accede to my demands, I'll just go with someone else, and then you'll miss out on this amazing opportunity to do business with TRUMP."

Unfortunately, Trump hasn't yet cottoned on to the fact that there isn't another Democratic congressional caucus down the road to negotiate with. If "Chuck and Nancy" don't want to meet with you, you don't get to go to the next Rolodex card and call up "Tony and Sarah" to cut your deal with.

It would have been a waste of time. Their efforts could have been better applied elsewhere.

I bet you he had to try really really hard not to call Chuck and Nancy names so instead used "" .

Last time they met with him he gave them the whole enchilada.

Maybe it would have been different this time but I sort of feel this concedes the fight to him.
