I'll reiterate, the Dems want to shut down the federal government, a move that will hurt US citizens, because they aren't getting exactly what they want for people in the country illegally.  This isn't really disputable.

I was under the impression there are bipartisan deals around (that find backers in the GOP and sure are not "exactly what Dems want"), only to be shut down by Trump. Because Trump says he'll sign any compromise (and takes the heat) one day and says the next day that he categorically needs this and that or there's no deal.

Even this McConnell seems not to know what Trump actually is expecting. No one seems to. Hard to reach some kind of agreement there.
