How many hold have you sat in that were due to inadequate ATC staffing? As opposed to things like weather? |
America does not negotiate with hostage takers. Release the hostage and negotiate. BTW, why did Trump put his foot down during his NAFTA negotiation and required Mexico to pay. Or why did he not put his foot down when his Handout to Rich taxscam was passed? He could have held rich people hostage - why did he chose to hold federal employees hostage right after GOP majority in house is lost? |
You should ask Trump why he decided to shut down the government. |
We the people should shut down the airports and force a crisis that has to be dealt with. |
The government shutdown has nothing to do with illegals or border. The senate passed a clean bill which Ryan won't take up because the con man refused to sign after Coulter,Hannity and Limbaugh told him not to accept it. Then the conman got a scare that his below 40% approval will fall below 20% if his cult withdraws. The con man made the shutdown for a wall that Mexico was supposed to pay for. So either MX can pay for it or YOU and your billionaire con man can pay for it. How about that for a deal? |
The White House is setting up for a ceremony in the Rose Garden and Drudge is announcing that the government will reopen "temporarily." |
Haha - its like a terrorists sets up a hostage release party! |
I no longer blame Trump. Senate Republicans could reopen govt TODAY if they had any morals or balls. |
They could have done it in December - why did they wait for today? Were they waiting for Mueller news drop? |

When pelosi starts working for US citizens the shutdown will stop. Democrats have abandoned US workers. We need a leader like Barbara Jordan not a rich elite like pelosi |
They were going to do it soon anyway because the Senate is revolting and the FAA is falling apart, but today is certainly an opportune moment. |
CBS is reporting that Trump caved. 2-3 week CR.

Roger Stone indictment does not equate to Trump backing down. Nor does it mean his approval rating will plummet. Let's be clear: it means nothing to these people or their voters. So blame Trump. He's proud of his shutdown after all. |
When did the shutdown start? What specific date? Because Pelosi didn't become Speaker until January 3. Nice try though. |
