Dear President Trump:
It’s time you checkmate the Democrats on the CR with the following proposal.
(1) Set up a committee made of three Democrats who voted to extend the CR (Catherine Cortez Masto, John Fetterman, and Independentish Angus King) and three Republicans to formulate a plan to continue the subsidy for Obamacare to American citizens who make less then $150,000.
(2) This proposal would ensure that illegal immigrants and those making over $150,000 would not receive this subsidy.
(3) The committee would also develop a plan for either a long-term plan to try somehow to save Obamacare or look into a new proposal that actually works.
(4) If you wanted to stick it to Senator Schumer for his shutdown proposal, ask that AOC join this committee, and that funds from the tariffs help pay for this subsidy.
(5) Have a press conference before leaving for the peace conference and explain how the shutdown is hurting the poor person receiving food stamps, safety in the sky, and military families, and insist that it end for that reason alone. This should occur before you attend the peace conference for maximum exposure.
