Total nincompoops!

eh it will be long forgotten by the fall. no one really remembers the 2013 shutdown either (note how all three branches of government are run by Reps) and that was a much worse move.

Lol when an NBC channel looking to give Dems every benefit says that, you lost. Reality is most people don’t want to see the 800k hurt, but it’s unseemly to shut down the govt for them bc it then starts to look like Dreamers vs US citizens and even moderates don’t like the look of that.

Unlike what appears to be the vast majority of gleefully childish Trump supporters, we don’t go through life defining everything in win/lose terms.

You should tell that to your fellow liberals on this forum.

Almost every seemingly-Trump supporting poster I’ve read comments from is on a constant tirade of “You lost! Get over it.” We won! Liberals are losers! Etc. even if there is substance to their post, they start or end with something about winning/losing.

Perhaps on this issue but generally Democrats and liberals on this forum are not exactly paragons of maturity. They post so much claptrap and indulge in mindless name calling.

So the Senate and the House passed the bill. Will Trump actually sign it tonight?

Exactly.
