DELUSIONAL: Delaware Dem Governor Claims DHS SHUTDOWN Demands Are 'Compromise'

Delaware Governor Matt Meyer just proved how completely disconnected Democrats are from reality. In a jaw-dropping appearance on C-SPAN's "Ceasefire" Friday, this liberal governor actually claimed that Democratic demands to end the Department of Homeland Security shutdown represent "a compromise."

Let that sink in, Patriots. Democrats are calling their own demands a "compromise." This is the kind of twisted logic that has infected the entire Democratic Party - they think capitulating to their wishes counts as meeting in the middle.

When host Greta Brawner pressed Meyer about the Democratic demands regarding DHS funding, the Delaware governor doubled down on this absurd characterization. This comes as President Trump's mass deportation operation - a cornerstone promise to the American people - faces potential roadblocks from Congressional Democrats determined to protect illegal immigrants over American citizens.

Democrats Playing Games While America Suffers

Meyer's comments expose the Democratic Party's complete inability to negotiate in good faith. They've weaponized government shutdowns before, and now they're doing it again - but this time they have the audacity to call their obstruction "compromise."

This is exactly why American voters delivered such a decisive victory to President Trump in 2024. They're sick and tired of politicians like Meyer who think they can gaslight the public with this kind of doublespeak.

The Delaware governor's twisted definition of compromise shows just how far left the Democratic Party has drifted from mainstream America.

While President Trump and his team work around the clock to secure our borders and remove dangerous criminals from American communities, Democrats like Meyer are playing semantic games and blocking critical funding for the very agency responsible for protecting American families.

This is what happens when you put party politics ahead of national security. Governor Meyer and his fellow Democrats would rather see DHS paralyzed than allow President Trump to fulfill his mandate from the American people.

The question Patriots need to ask is simple: How can we trust Democrats to govern when they can't even define basic words like "compromise"?

Delaware Dems live in a bubble. I live 20 miles from the border and see the chaos firsthand - families in my town are dealing with the consequences of failed policies every single day.

Same here in Texas. These politicians have no clue what border communities are going through.

This is exactly why we can't trust Democrats with national security. Shutting down DHS isn't a compromise - it's surrendering our border completely!

Couldn't agree more. They call chaos a 'solution' and expect us to buy it.

🤦‍♂️ This is what passes for leadership in the Democrat party these days.

What's his definition of compromise here? Because from where I'm sitting, this looks like political theater while our border remains wide open.

Delusional is right! How is shutting down the agency responsible for homeland security any kind of reasonable middle ground?

I keep asking myself how we got to the point where protecting our own borders became controversial. This governor's comments just prove how out of touch the left has become with ordinary Americans who want basic security.
