How long will it take before the money saved from the shutdown pays for The Wall?

Mrs. Pelosi has some explaining to do.
How is that? She has one vote just like the rest of Congress?

What everyone knows is that the left will repeat this lie without any proof to back it up.

Democrats/liberals/leftists are anti American, racist, Christian hating, God despising, let the MS13 legals in to kill Americans. There are certainly Republicans in this number who are RINO.

Why does she have some explaining to do? Just because he wants something, he can't demand it over the votes of those elected to represent the American people.

This on Trump. The constituents don't want the wall funded, he's caused the shut down. Which he stated clearly in the beginning, before I guess someone with a brain said don't claim this.

Can't have an impasse with only one side, I guess someone else also has some explaining to do!

And no, 'MY way or NO way' IS NOT an explanation, it's a childish tantrum.

Now I am peeved. I love the way that Federal Workers are being turned into the enemy meanwhile illegals live like kings. Trump I believe you have lost my vote for 2020.

I guess Listener believes the furloughed workers, and those who are now working without pay, won't be paid when this is over?
