Democratic Party Ban on Meetings with Trump and Republicans

Please Democrats, do not bend. Do not break. Do not conference or negotiate with ANY republicans.

NOTHING! Give no ground.

Do not meet or negotiate with this racist shithole for one more second.

Stand united with our brothers and sisters, here and all across the world.

to discuss and plan a strategy where they all are on the same page as to how they will deal with Trump's comments today and the how they will deal with the Repugs that always circle the wagons around Trump.

Don't forget that we beat their "Repeal and go fuck yourselves" bill with a few GOP votes.

Even meetings with Trump himself can be valuable. Every meeting gives him another opportunity to say something that will alienate some swing voters.

Gives republicans and more importantly trump the ability to say that democrats are working with republicans and then put forth some shit bill that screws the poor or disenfranchised or immigrants or people of color in general and use Democrats meeting with them as a way to spread blame or beat Dems over head with it if they complain saying “you were at the table but never complained” kind of shit.

More importantly, no republicans have come out against trump’s “shithole” comment so fuck them and their agenda.
