    Trump has no fear of the bully Pelosi. Trust me on that.

    Why call it ineffective? Do you think Obama approved then built an ineffective wall? What was going on in his mind when he voted for it then as president took charge of building it? Was Ogama wacky doodle?

    Since your party shut down the Government during Bill Clinton time, then during Ogama time, how do you duck your own responsibility. One poster above admits you do this trying to affect the election of 2020.

    And what are we losing. This is an imaginary crisis where Trump has decided to hold the government employees hostage to build a small bit of wall to satisfy his pathetic ego. His 5.8 billion isn't going to solve the problem or make America any safer.

    He can solve the shutdown immediatly by just signing the funding bills. Holding workers hostage is just proof of how little he actually cares about American workers.

    Your whataboutism is showing.

    And of course 2020 plays a part in this shutdown. It is the sole reason that trump shut it down (or rather, to stave off impeachment).

    I get why you want to blame Democrats. You are smarter than trump.

    Trump explicitly claimed credit for the shutdown. An overwhelming majority of voters agree that trump is mostly to blame. Just embrace it and stop flip flopping.

    Yep, and the democrats show their true colors in not caring about border security or the pay of government workers by trying to take advantage of that by not negotiating and going on vacation to play in the sun. Great optics.

    Nancy and Schumer do not care about workers or they would send to Trump the bill Trump wants.

    See if this actual former Border agent and then a head of ICE tells you. Pelosi must have crossed into Mexico but has Schumer? And she and him approved rthe worthless wall built by Ogama. Hussein Ogama built 700 miles of in your words, worthess wall. ICE appreciates it and says the Ogama wall is working very well. I have to think Schumer would want to watch the Mexican girls have sex with the Donkeys there. Latinos favor having sex with Donkeys.

    Here are the optics that count. The House sent all the same bills to fund the govt, that won unanimous support by every voting member of the Senate. The House has already done its part. The senate has to figure out how to get them to the floor passed the Majority leader who is kowtowing to Trump. Its the GOP caucus that needs to act.

    So they would be vetoed. Democrats are not interested in negotiating so are throwing a tantrum because they think by hurting federal workers while they play in the sun is a good thing.

    Schumer and Pelosi were devoted to shutting down the government and Trump was just unwise in what he then told them. I do not approve each thing done by Trump as Democrats do for Nancy and Chuck E cheese.

    Trump has the executive job to protect the Border, Chuck E Cheese and Nanci who owns fences around her property do not give a damn about border Security.

    then the Republican Senate needs to take it up with the republican president. It was their bills that were giftwrapped and returned. The House waits until the government is opened and then they deal with the remaining immigration budget. No need for the entire country to be held hostage by the GOP as leverage.. We Dems don't encourage extortion by proxy and we Dems do not cower beneath the bullying.

    Might be more than you think. Within days furloughed workers are eligible to be riffed. That would be a great way to rid government of the 40% or so that are actively working against the administration.

    If Trump cared about the workers he would sign the budget bill. Giving in to hostage taking has been against stated government policy for years and no reason why the Democrats should suddenly violate long standing policy against terrorism just because it is Trump terrorism.

    Nope. The art of legislation is negotiation. The democrats have abandoned negotiation in favor of hurting federal workers.

    That's stupid. It isn't the FBI and the intelligence agencies that are not getting paid. If Trump really want's to help Russia destroy America he is going to have to target his government shutdowns a bit better.

    Don't be too ignorant. Obama and Clinton didn't shut down the government. It happenened during their Presidencies but they didn't cause the shutdowns.
