Sorry,but that's the way it is. Republicans kept Guberment LOCK DOWN TIGHT for 17 DAYS in 2013 over health care,never gave a SHIT about the armed forces then. Now at day 2 and 12 hours this just HAS to end. Trump gets BILLIONS for his SHAM border wall. DACA people will be sent packing. Nice....................

...for the shutdown. At this time, it is the Democrats that are holding the key. That is a political reality.

...no one wants the government to close down. I'm sure Schumer has got a few things up his sleeve to make this work in our favor.

Once it was clear trump is a lying, senile buffoon on this and most issues, it was time to decouple the issues.

The Democrats better never, ever, call me again asking for money. I wouldn't trust McConnell as far as I could throw him, the very idea that the republicans will come back by Feb 8th and "do something" about the dreamers doesn't mean anything. One of their proposals was to allow the dreamers to stay but never become citizens. They're afraid that they will lose 700,000 some voters.

Why Schumer thinks that there will be fair debate about the dreamers is disgusting.
