In the 80s, Reagan wanted X gottamn it and TIp O'Neil wanted Y gottamn it. THey practiced the art of compromise and both walked away with what they could say was a win.

THAT is how America works.

At other times - a potus has an idea that is rejected. W tried it with privatization of SS. Wasn't going to happen. It didn't. He took the loss and moved on. Trump here TWICE tried for this stupid wall and the word came back - NO. Rather than taking the loss and moving on - to serve the American People, the guy throws a tantrum.

It is too easy to demean Trump. He makes it easy, but the art of compromise needs to be practiced again in America.
