Are you always this condescending towards other posters on here? I completely understood my link but instead of nicely explaining it to me you basically question my intelligence. From what I have read from your previous posts you are one of the many lemmings on here.

Yes I mixed up the fiscal budget with what is going on now. You are just too smart for all of us small people on here.

That being said. #TrumpShutDown.

Yes we do know how the senate votes, you need 60 votes to pass ANY measure. The democrats filibustered the CR. This is 100% on the democrats.

I've also seen your posts....maybe you should re-read them....

Or maybe you're just so used to be so condescending towards people, it's your normal and you just don't even know your doing it anymore....

That being said

Shutdown will enter third day. The Dealmaker-in-Chief didn't even come down to discuss the situation with lawmakers today.

Lindsey Graham Slams Trump Aide, Says White House Staff Making Negotiations ‘Difficult’
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Sunday blasted White House staff for undercutting efforts to craft a deal on immigration and end the ongoing government shutdown.

Speaking with reporters, Graham singled out White House senior policy adviser Stephen Miller as an “outlier,” and said despite President Donald Trump’s willingness to forge a deal, his aides have made such negotiations difficult.

“Every time we have a proposal it is only yanked back by staff members,” Graham said. “As long as Stephen Miller is in charge of negotiating immigration, we’re going nowhere.”
