I agree... it will come full circle and compromise will be the bipartisan bill last month. But I wondered if enhanced security would be fine of it a specific wall must be built to satisfy. I vote no for that later.
Trump has dug in and claimed there has to be money specifically designated for a wall no one wants, or he will not sign it. That's why this is fully and completely in the laps of the Republicans now. Will they stand up to Trump, or will they vote to keep the country shuttered to appease a crazy and unpopular demagogue?
Once upon a time, the answer to that would not be in question. But this Republican party has proven to be utterly cowardly and toothless, so there's no way to know if they are even capable of doing the right thing at this point.
Another juvenile post by a leftist. You don't think the Democrats are playing to their base of ethnocentric Hispanics who want open borders for their illegal amigos and amnesty for those all ready here and other clueless bleeding hearts? What's the difference? At least Trump is playing to law abiding Americans not illegal foreigners and their supporters. Trump doesn't have a dwindling base but feel free to pretend so if it makes you feel better.
you are so off base if he DID NOT HAVE a dwindling base there would not have been so many flips in house and walk outs in his administration.
DRUMS himself is not law abiding nor were those in his circle ask those who knew him before or all those he stiffed
BTW BEFORE THIS JOKER I VOTED REPUBLICAN but when it comes to ALL people I AM A PROUD BLEEDING HEART

In my opinion, Dems should try hard for a few more days or may be until Friday and then give up. Trump is a madman and so is turtle face. Dems should make it very clear they are giving up so that America can run again as Trump, turtle face and their buddies don't give a $hit.

Oh Hell no. Keep it shutdown. Trumpy said he’d “own it” and he does. Let him have his tantrum with the co-equal branches of government.
And do NOT approve backpay when it reopens.
All the Border Patrol, Federal law enforcement, prison staff, folks in Commerce and Ag etc, contractors doing work for the Federal gov’t. etc, will long remember this.
And the fool Trump thinks “they’re all Democrats” is hilarious. They’re not. Or at least they were’nt .
Mick Mulvaney explained the latest developments on one of the Sunday morning CNN political shows with Jake Tapper. Trump has told all of his Cabinet officials to look in their budgets for extra money that can be used for the border.
He also said something very interesting. Even if Mexico gave us a check, it would have to go into the Treasury to be appropriated later by Congress.
So it sounds like the best deal is to get money on a National Security Emergency basis. Put up several hundred more miles of the shish kebab fence, as I call it, and then let Congress appropriate money for the non barrier security, i.e. software, drones, etc. Win-win for both sides.
Watched Trump's impromptu presser on the way to Camp David and he said DACA is at the Supreme Court so if DACA is blown up, it will give Trump extra power in negotiating with Dems. Will they throw DACA under the bus yet again when Trump offers them a deal?

I'm not talking about those in congress but regular Americans who support him. Drums? WTH does that mean? You can't debate this issue without the childish name calling? No one is completely law abiding and I'm only interested in what he does as president not what he did or didn't do before that.
So you're proud to be a bleeding heart for illegal aliens who are economically raping us and stealing American jobs, taxes and resources? Sorry, but my heart bleeds for Americans not foreign law breakers. You have your priorities all screwed up and on that note I'll be sending you off to my dust bin. I have no further need to debate this issue with you.
