Right off the bat.... I think the President caved into pressure.... I am disappointed.
However, now it is in the Democrats lap.... will they do the right thing?
"The government shutdown is coming to a close — for now.
President Donald Trump announced his support for a bill to reopen parts of the federal government during a speech at the White House on Friday. The deal will fund the parts of the government that are shut down for through February 15, a Democratic aide told INSIDER, temporarily bringing an end to the longest shutdown in history.
Trump's support would clear the way for congressional leaders to quickly pass a short-term funding bill called a continuing resolution (CR), setting up a high stakes negotiating period to avoid another closure of the government.
The deal will not include any money for Trump's border wall and will help to give federal workers back pay, the Democratic aide said."

There is no disrespect for caving on stupidity. Trump never should have refused to sign bills because Limbaugh and Coulter had a problem, they are not running the country.
I am not going to beat Trump up for caving, to me it's i***tic to gloat when someone does the right thing.
The wall and border security needs to be worked out in the house and senate, and the president needs to go along with wh**ever those bodies elected officials agree to. Trump can't have something just because he wants it.
