President Trump does not seem like he is trying to compromise on the shutdown and border wall situation, leaving thousand of government workers from getting paid. The majority of America blames him for the shutdown and opposes the border wall. There have reportedly been no meetings scheduled and no new proposals being traded upon the issue. Trump is still shaming the Democrats for not negotiating with him about the wall. He says he doesn't want a national emergency but is willing to do so.
I think this whole situation is incredibly stupid and unnecessary, it is causing the public immense stress and furthering distrust with the government. The fact that Trump is so unqualified and has an active investigation around him reminds me of the gilded age. Not unlike today, the leaders of the gilded age were untrustworthy, inefficient, and unqualified. They caused mass distrust and panic in this nation, a lot like what Trump is doing to America.
