Whatever it takes.... Because of the Oval Address last night TIME is on POTUS’s side. The facts are on his side. His words from last night now hang around Chuck&Nancy’s neck. I do not believe this shutdown will end soon. Trump is right but the D’s believe, because of their win in the House  and the love they get from the media, that the people are on their side. Both sides are entrenched.  1) The D’s will fold and or compromise to do a deal or 2) A serious immediate crisis will arise out of the situation on the border (and inland) and Trump will use Nat’l E to save the day. If he uses it before the perfect time he will appear more as dictator instead of savior. Optics in this case are important. He’s not stupid. Last night was the beginning or first step. TIME IS TRUMPS FRIEND NOW.  Reporter: “How long are you willing to let this shutdown last, Mr. President?” President Trump: “Whatever it takes.” https://twitter.com/breaking911/status/1083085033815056384?s=21
