from last night with the $5 billion wall addition. There won't be the votes to pass it. The government will be shutdown. Trump and the Repugs will blame the shutdown on the Dems - because they didn't get the Dem support to pass this.

They'll end up cutting the wall, pass it and send it back to the RWNJ's in the house.

I certainly hope so, but there is not much time. Would like to call Trump's veto bluff

(6,931 posts)1. one small thing
Trump is proud to own the shutdown.
It gives him tons of cover for the other nefarious things he's doing.
Let's hope Robert Mueller continues to show up for work anyway.

He thinks shutting down the government shuts down the investigation

then in ads.

And it is not the Democrats.

The GOP will not get 60 for cloture and probably does not even have 50 to pass it
