Does he realize that the last time that there was a government shut down there was a flood of illegal immigrants?

A shut down hurts the working poor and dire poor.... Trump does not care... he is after self glory, the same as he tried to get the Mexican President to lie for him to save his own ego... He will shaft the American people, trying to save his own ego..

This man is a Nut Jobs.. what his purpose is for being in this office I don't know... I hope he does not start World War III. He acts more like "the make up of an Anti-Christ" than anything else. We've had 7 months a pure chaos... in every respect and every areas of what is America and the International Community.

A shut down can potentially do way more damage than not building the wall.

But you see Trump's ego is so fragile he would sacrifice the quality of life of more Americans just to get his beloved wall up.

How about he crowd sources the wall. Those that want it -- pay for it.

3 years and 5 months and all this madness comes to an end. In the meantime Trump won't get a damned thing he promised his followers done.


Tick, tick, tick.

And this time, illegal immigrants are the enemy, not the incompetent idiot in charge It's such an amazing coincidence that every time the heat is on Trump because of yet another stupid/crazy/repulsive/immoral thing he's done, he holds a rally accusing others of being an enemy to the American people: illegal immigrants, transgender military personnel, Muslims, Hilary Clinton, Obama, Afghanistan, anyone but the real culprit: himself.

Nobody is shutting down the Govt. Get real, it's all a negotiating tool.

Well Done! You hit the nail squarely on the head

Trump is a tool in deed who has proven he has no ability to negotiate.

So Trump holds a rally in Phoenix to try and bully the politicians into approving a wall. Hmmm wonder if they are worried about calling his bluff. NO.....if it becomes a huge disaster it is all on Trump for 'shutting it down'.....

Seriously -- dumb move. He's made this big proclamation and will have to dance backwards on it in a few months.

He hasn't learned anything yet.
