I agree with our President's fine decision.


NO negotiating with Democratic terrorists.

This is similar to the problem President Reagan had with the air traffic controllers.

He broke them and Trump can do the same to the Dems.

He is beholden to maybe 10% of the country that is racist and bigoted and anti-American values.

As for Congress, a reading of the constitution is in order. The Congress, not the president, makes the laws. Had Schumer's generous proposal been put on the floor it would have passed with veto proof majorities. Trump and the GOP together are to blame and Americans agree 2 to 1 according to polling. When the GOP can't find the courage to pass laws supported by 90% of the people, it is time to vote in a new group.
Where are you getting your numbers from?

And no it's not racist or bigoted to want to remove the illegal parasites from our country. We have enough homegrown ones. And about we take care of our own problems first (black poverty, Native American poverty) before worrying about another country's problems?

I would like to help people with special needs but the rules say I have to post in English.

Other languages are against the rules.

I support that position. It forces the Dems to support the American citizen.

A nation that won't pay for its defense is weakened and the enemy is embolden to attack. Its the prime directive of government.
No excuse to vote against paying the military. Dems will cave eventually.

Its a public poll.
Trump had a chance to negotiate on DACA way before the shutdown. The two parties and Trump were actually working toward a compromise when Kelly and hard line conservatives butted in.

I think terrorist is too strong of a word, however, you may have a point...

However, in 2013 Democrats claimed that they sincerely believed that government shutdowns would kill people. Republicans largely thought this was BS.

Now in 2018 Diane Feinstein says that she still believes that government shutdowns kill US citizens, but is willing to have US citizens die so that she can push for the continuation of the Obama executive action on the Dreamer policy.


How is Diane Feinstein not acting like a terrorist saying that she would have US citizens die than lose an Obama executive order on protecting illegal immigrants?

Oh for heaven's sake. Whatever happened to his "bill of love?" He was working just fine with the Dems a week or so ago. But now not even McConnell knows what he wants.

I am delighted he did not strike that giveaway to terrorists deal.

March 5 is getting so near, after all.
