    Trump is litterly dangling amnesty as a bargening chip. But Pelosi refuses any kind of compromise. For the love of god make a fucking comprimise pelosi, 5 billion is 0.13% of the budget. Trump isn’t being unreasonable about this just give him the money or he’s going to have the millitary do it and the dems are just going to cry and complain even more if he does it.

      Democrats aren't good at thinking unfortunately. Feeling is their strong point.

        Actually they are masters at the long game. They refuse to give the wall, even tho many voted for it during Obama, because they want to be able to say that Trump didnt deliver on his campaign promises. It's as simple as that. Everything else be damned.

        When you have no morals and only care about your own ambitions it's easy to play games.

          I agree, having no morals as a person is a good way to cause potential destruction.

    I'm not a government employee, but if I was a government employee I would just be too pissed about not getting paid to care about any of the turds, and douches in the government, and who is wrong, or right.

    I don't don't care for Nancy Pelosi.

      Well, they do get paid for all the work, just not on the same pay schedule. Any employer could do this and be within the law in the U.S. You have 90 days to pay legally.

      I don't feel at all sorry for government workers. They have great benefits, retirements, can't really ever be fired and have a job for life.

      If they can't get out of paycheck to paycheck subsistence, existence with all that going for them, then it's their own fault.

    Trump is the one who started this because he didn't get his way. At the same time pelosi isn't much better then there is bitch McConnell who is the source for the problem. I don't think the government should be held hostage because trump can't have his wall anyways did he and the republicans have control of all branches of government for 2 years you can't say that the democrats were stopping him from building the wall in all that time. Trump clearly is just using the wall as a talking point because if he was serious he would have did it already(before the dems had the house). It's like when Obama had all branches and didn't do anything it's clearly stupidity on trumps part for not doing it when he had the upper hand same as Obama.

    Anyone who can say "We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it." and then calls something a "non starter" before they have heard what it is, is just a partisan hack hell bent on getting only what she wants, at the expense of everything else.

    I don't see how anyone can say Trump is a stubborn ass and then support this person.

    Anyone who does ignores reality.

    Border security could never work with human rights protecting criminals. He should build the wall, or teach people to accept Islamic rule.

      You know the wall is for Mexicans to stay out. And you also know that Mexico actually has the second most amount of Catholic’s in the world...? And Catholics do not follow Islam rule. (Which is called Sharia Law not Islamic Rule by the way ❤️)

      You do know all of that right?

        Mexicans should stay out if they cant move here legally. I managed to move here legally from Australia.

        If Mexico thinks this is their land then let them declare war and see who wins.

        Sick of illegals.

        And you think the wall will be there only to stop Mexicans, right?

    It's trumps fucking idea to hold these peoples jobs hostage, he's going to put so Many out on the street because he's like a 7 yr old boy throwing a tantrum and stomping his feet. So yea, trump , how many kids are going to bed hungry tonight while you seem to be eating P R E T T Y WELL. How many AMERICAN KIDS are going to be calling their local shelter home because you are having a temper tantrum. I fully agree with the wall or more border security. But fuck trump why make so.Many more homeless people in the USA. Isn't it a big enough problem already ? TURN THE FAUCET BACK ON, PUT THEM BACK TO WORK, AND ALLOW THEM DIGNITY TO KEEP THEIR HOMES, JOBS AND FAMILIES TOGETHER. AND TRUMP, IF A PLANE GOES DOWN FOR YOUR BULLSHIT, MAY IT ALL BE ON YOU AND YOUR STUPID SHIT.
