Individual 1 is losing his base. Why? Most of them have realized they are a token of his con and lies. He doesn't care about the wall. He cares about fulfilling a campaign promise so he can get re-elected. He will have more leverage with fulfilling the promise of selling his soul to Putin.

Individual 1 was willing to forget the money for the wall until Coulter and Limbaugh blasted him on the airwaves. He gets immigration advice from them instead of military advisors and border agents.

Illegal immigration has been going down for years, so what’s this renewed emergency by Trump. It’s just BS.

He will never lose his hard core base. The rest of the country may be slipping away from him, but what he said about being able to stand on Fifth Avenue and shoot someone and not lose voters still rings true today with his true believers. No matter what kind of stupid things he says or does, they are fervently with him until the end.

But Trump said that he would be "proud" to shut down the government, and that he would wear that mantle with pride. So who's fault is it again?

Nancy is putting them there just as much as Trump is. Either one could give in.

Translation: It doesn't effect my family, so I don't care.

I'd love to see what would happen if you said the above in person to the Steinle family, or another similar family.

People have their own definitions of what constitutes an emergency.

Trump has the right priorities. The admiral does too and he needs to bare the burden he signed up for willingly or resign.
They are generally not expected to do so for free.

Also, what the heck is an "Angle Family"? Do they have a genetic gift for geometry?

In your very limited analysis that has led you to a conclusion that many do not share.

What this Admiral had to say should have been said privately to the President and the Speaker. Beyond that he is getting political which is a "No No" as long as he wears the uniform.
