colleague got this great reporting about what nancy pelosi says she's prepared to offer donald trump. we're also to go into the policy wonk weeds here which i know you love. >> i'm always into that. go ahead. >> apparently she's willing to offer six appropriation bills, and then a year-long cr, continuing resolution, that's a temporary government funding measure for homeland security funding. if the president doesn't want that, then she would agree to offer a year-long cr for all seven bills but they won't budge on this border wall money. my read on this is that donald trump isn't going to agree to any of this because it doesn't give him the money that he seeks, so this is the state of play. you have chuck schumer and nancy pelosi walking into this meeting feeling like they have all the leverage and they're not going to budge, in part because the base doesn't want to give donald trump a win on this border walsh, and you have donald trump needsi needing to emerge from this meeting with something he can tell his core supporters. this issue forms the core appeal
