<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And that is probably a very good thing for Trump\u2019s political future, because news that he was going to surrender to the Democrats on border wall funding had already stirred up <a title=\"a tremendous conservative backlash\"

conservative backlash<\/a>.\u00a0 Without the enthusiastic support of conservatives, there is no way that Trump can win in 2020, and so he needs to be a man of his word and keep his promises.\u00a0 But now that he has announced that he is going to fight, he also needs to be prepared to be in this for the long haul.\u00a0 Chuck Schumer is not going to give in after a few days.\u00a0 In fact, Democrats in Congress are convinced that a government shutdown could be completely blamed on Trump and would be very good for them politically, and so they have no intention of compromising with Trump.\u00a0 So if President Trump really wants border wall funding, he is going to have to shut the government down for at least a month, and ultimately it may take even longer than that.<\/p>\n<p>It isn\u2019t about the money.\u00a0 If Trump had asked for a measly five billion dollars for just about anything else, he could have easily gotten it.<\/p>\n<p>The Democrats simply do not want a single mile of border wall to be constructed, and so far <a title=\"they have been successful\"

single inch on this.<\/p>\n<p>And they thought that they had already beaten Trump, and so they were already celebrating their victory.\u00a0 But then Trump stunned the world on Thursday by announcing that he would not sign any spending bill <a title=\"unless it contained funding for a wall\"
