Good. The government can reopen, and this attempt will get blocked by the courts as blatant executive overreach.

@QuixoticSoul We can hope, but one of Trump's few accomplishments is packing the few appointments he's bothered to make with far right stooges.

@OggggO They'll still vote against him, if they even bother to hear the case. Not like they need him for anything now that they're on the bench, and they're still judges who respect the law.

I’m pretty sure the President and his advisors know that. There will be a ton of moving parts until a deal is done with enough pain and gain for everyone. @QuixoticSoul

@jackjjackson Or nothing is going to get done, and Trump will get to say that at least he didn't give up 🤷‍♂️

Which I think is the real priority for him at the moment.
