72 percent in poll think Trump, Congress will fail to reach border deal

Just 28 percent of those surveyed in a new poll think President Trump and Congress will reach a deal on border security in the next three weeks, underscoring the deep skepticism voters hold toward Washington after the longest government shutdown in U.S. history.

Seventy-two percent of registered voters polled think no deal will be reached, according to the latest Hill-HarrisX poll.

Lawmakers aiming to reach a deal met for the first time on Wednesday — and just hours after Trump tweeted his own apparent skepticism of their efforts.

“If the committee of Republicans and Democrats now meeting on Border Security is not discussing or contemplating a Wall or Physical Barrier, they are Wasting their time!” Trump wrote on Twitter.

Of course not. Trump's a stubborn jackass and the wall is a stupid fucking idea.
