Trump wants to continue to build a security barrier that a bi-partisan Congress signed into law in 2006.

No we don't.

"By a 21-point margin — 57 percent to 36 percent — Americans think the president should compromise on the wall to avoid a government shutdown, rather than stand firm."

Carry on.

I like the pic where he looks like he's holding a roach.

Nixon resigned before impeachment charges could be brought, while Andrew Johnson and Clinton were acquitted in the Senate.


Just because the senate did not convict, he was still impeached, fully, no, impeached, yes...

She didn't lose because of the wall, she lost because of her negative attack ads on Sinema.

www.reference.com › US History
President Bill Clinton was impeached on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice by the House of Representatives on Dec. 19, 1998. Clinton's impeachment trial was held in the Senate, where he was acquitted of all charges on Feb. 12, 1999.

Got any more BS?
Impeachments are not "overturned".


The senate either votes guilty of charges, and removes from office, or not guilty of charges.


Bill Clinton was one of the few presidents to ever be impeached.


Carry on

I would like to know , what part of "these illegals coming here ,take jobs from citizens, cost tax payers billions of dollars yearly, bring diseases, mooch of the government", don't you understand?

Are you and you fellow democrats that stupid to what is going on right in front of you?
Where is your sense of pride?
Do you not think America should always take care of Americans first?

Bob.

So after some badgering and prodding from Pelosi & Schumer to get him all riled up, Trump's ego can't take any more and erupts.

And that's when Donald talks over them both, boasting that he will gladly take credit for a government shutdown.

Pelosi and Schumer were 10 steps ahead of Trump the entire time.

I know, they are both seasoned politician who been at it much longer than Trump. Trump just got into this game late in his life, and is no match for these two skilled politicians. Mike Pence should have should have got in on it.
