Mexican Invasion Title: Democratic Congressman: Yeah, The Shutdown Hurt Us On Thursday, Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) shot inside the ship, saying his party was pretty much a total disaster, and that yesthe shutdown hurt his party. Ryan was answering a question from The Daily Beasts Sam Stein, who wondered if this shutdown hurt his party regarding a negotiating standpoint. I think it definitely hurt us, theres no question about it. I think we went in as a party without a real plan, without a real strategy on how were going to get out or what the end game was, so we lost before it even started, he said. Ryan added the Democrats were not prepared on what they wanted, and what the Democrats in the Senate running for re-election this year, especially ones from red states, could handle. Now, that the Trump White House has extended amnesty to 1.8 million illegals with a pathway to citizenship on a 10-12 year timeframe, which wont sit well with progressives, the question is do Democrats want a deal. Trump just conceded citizenship and increased the amnesty pool by one million people. I think Trump could be outmaneuvering the Left again because if Democrats reject this proposal, you can hit them with being intransigent, unwilling to protect our borders, unwilling to grant protections to 1.8 million illegal aliens, and unwilling to come to the table. Its musical chairs, and theyre left without the chair. And if Democratic messaging is anything like the shutdown mess (it was god-awful), the 2018 midterms could get interesting.
