This. Would have been cheaper to simply accept money for the wall. Thanks, Pelosi for the shutdown!

Oh, I see, blame it on the Dems huh! They caused the shutdown even though Trump said on live TV that he's proud to shut the gov't down and won't rule out doing so again in a few weeks.

No one wins in these kinds of shutdowns. Since what Trump asked for was so small (5 billion) that was supported by 40% of the electorate, I thought the Democrats should have given it to him.

They didn't, the government shut down, and re-opened at a loss of 11 billion and now 40% of people very very upset looking to frustrate the Democrats next chance they get.

But, hey, whatever.

The Republicans do not want this resolved EVER as they need cheap labor which makes everything else a moot point so you can quit this BS and tripe of denying that Trump shut the government down.

The shutdown started in 2018 when Congress was still all Republican. Thanks 2018 Republican Congress and President Trump. Thank you Limbaugh and Coulter.

Trump owned the shutdown 100%.
