Phil Mattingly on Gov’t Shutdown: The Constraints on What a Pragmatic Solution Would Actually Look Like, Are Extremely Difficult

‘I talked to a democratic senator on Friday who said, look, there‘s more than half of our caucus that simply will not vote for anything that they come up with’

RUSH EXCERPT:
MATTINGLY: "Yeah, the constraints to both sides on what a compromise or what a pragmatic solution here would actually look like are extremely, extremely difficult. I talked to a democratic senator on Friday who said, look, there‘s more than half of our caucus that simply will not vote for anything that they come up with, no matter what. That‘s an extremely difficult position for Schumer to be in. How Trump and his side try and figure out some way to thread this needle here. I don‘t see this ending anytime soon, especially until tsa pain points start to really rise."
