Shut the federal government down. 3 months, 6 months, however long it takes. 80% of what they do isn't necessary anyway.
Hahaha!

Man that’s funny stuff right there. Even as your ‘man-boy’ flat out lies, in the camera, gets ‘p0wned’ by 2 legislators....

You still are a believer.

Trump opened the door to the swamp (oh and a lot of them were/are indicted or cooperating, lol).

Enjoy your love of Trump. Nero fiddled while Rome burned..

He could always call for a vote and prove her wrong.

Trump ought to commandeer those funds set aside for the cyber security team...the funds that sit in full since right after the election in 2016. That s "security" tagged. Grab it while ya can Trump.

Too bad but, uh, the House holds the purse strings. Misappropriated funds would be another nail in Trumps coffin.

Civics is a biotch. There’s a reason he ain’t King.

So he's not going to get the Pentagon to build the wall?

The Democrats and a significant amount of the Republicans believe the current proposed wall is a bit of overkill.

P.S.
For what it is worth I am not a Democrat/lefty/liberal/etc...

Trump is only proposing that we complete the 700 mile long wall on the most porous areas of our border already approved by congress in 2006. So this is overkill? Trump is merely asking for $5 billion right now to keep the government open and start building the wall while the completion of the wall will cost $25 billion so just what is the Democrats problem?

I am still struck by how Pence sat in that chair like he was super-glued in place.

I kept waiting for him to pop up with how this is the first he'd heard of any of this. But nothing, not a word. He hardly even moved.

Strange.

Shut it down and dont worry about your support. Conservatives will be with you on it.
Do you think the entire federal government is nonessential positions. We are talking about shutting down all federal agencies, you know like homeland security, department of defense, veteran affairs...way too many to list. Many seniors depend on their social security check which they won't receive. Sorry but if Trump shuts government down over a wall, which Mexico was supposed to pay for, then he most certainly won't be re elected. Conservatives won't be enough.

It was a stretch to send troops to ‘the caravan’ that consisted mainly of impoverished people seeking asylum. I doubt he can convince Congress the wall is akin to National Security matters.
