CNN: Senate Republicans Feel Very Burned By Trump’s Refusal To Sign Spending Bill

EXCERPT:

MATTINGLY: "Yeah, Jim, in a town, and right now a building that's really devoid of action. The only thing that's really happening is Leader Nancy Pelosi’s belongings and her staff's belongings are currently being moved into Speaker Paul Ryan’s office, showing there is going to be a transition in just about a week, and that at this point is what everybody is pointing to for the next legislative action. Soon to be speaker Nancy Pelosi making clear, as soon as she takes the gavel, she will quickly move to pass potentially a series of bills to reopen the Government, one that might reopen it until February 8th, something the Senate passed before the President rejected it. Another that might bring together a number of funding bills, package them all together, and send them over, try to separate the Department of Homeland Security bill that has the wall issue inside of it for a shorter-term extension. A number of different options. But the reality right now, Jim, is even though there may be legislative action shortly after Democrats take the majority in the House, there is no sense it’s necessarily going to go anywhere. Senate Republicans feel very burned by what happened last week when the President decided not to sign something that had been agreed to unanimously in the chamber. And they have made clear, they don’t want to move forward on anything until the President signs off. And that basically puts everyone in the same place they have been for a matter of days. Entrenched in their current positions. The President making clear, he wants billions of dollars for a border structure or border wall. Democrats making clear they’re not willing to give it. Is that dynamic going to change? Jim, we’re going into a weekend, and the aides I’m talking to right now say, no, at least not any time in the near term. The big question now is what could change that, and nobody seems, at least at this point, do have the answer, Jim."
