Playbook : “Several different people inside the White House and on Capitol Hill tell us they are getting some signals President Trump might back a bipartisan package of spending bills to avert a government shutdown. The package — a so-called minibus — funds border security, but not the wall.”
“Make no mistake: This would be a fold from the president, and would be read as such by his base on Capitol Hill. The White House would try to sell it as a victory, of sorts, heading into the holiday.”
“It would, however, be a recognition that the math simply isn’t there for Trump as he pushes for a $5 billion border wall.”
