The dems shutdown the gov over illegal aliens. Wow. Nothing more to be said


No. Five Democrats voted against the CR and five Republicans voted against it.


Vote count doesn’t matter - it only got to that point bc Dems wouldn’t sure to listen to any deal not protecting the dreamers. If all 5 Rs had voted for the CR, show me where we had 9 dems in favor.


To get 9 dems in favor, you change the bill to something they support. That's called governing.

What exactly is in the bill that they do NOT support? The problem is that the Dems insisted on throwing in a deal to protect Dreamers.


Apparently, there was a deal, but John Kelly blew it up.


The deal offered wall funding and military spending increase. The WH is full of idiot bullies.

None of the disagreement is even about what is in the CR -- it's about what's not, which isn't do or die at this point because Dems will be back in a position to shut it all down in a month if they don't get a compromise by then.

Let's not forget there are plenty of Republicans who want to keep DACA. The top business lobby right now has giant banners celebrating the Dreamers right across from the White House.

I think Trump was horrifically wrong to talk about 'shithole' countries, but I think Dems own part of this by putting energy into smearing, rather than rising above to focus on a deal.


The DACA deadline is long past. Every day people are falling out of DACA status right now. It’s a mess.


My American kid cannot get MA in state tuition despite the fact that we’ve paid taxes in MA for 15 years. DACA kids from all over the country can.

Shut it down



Sounds like a personal grievance, not a reason to punish 800,000 people. If you don’t meet the MA guidelines for in-state tuition, that’s on you. Why are you posting in a local DC forum, anyway?


Yes, it is. It's an example of how DACA kids are being favored over American citizens. They get in state tuition at most state colleges, why?

The only thing Dems do support is illegals. First we take care of the 800k dreamers but then oh what about their parents and then it’ll be - oh such close families, how about the aunts and uncles and cousins?

+100 SHUT IT DOWN!


Hm, I heard Melania worked illegally for a while. And then, gasp, brought her parents. You must be mad about that too.

This shut down in on the Dems.


Essentially yes. Eff the 850k civilian govt employees who now don’t get paid and back pay isn’t even guaranteed. Who cares if you need to be a US citizen for the job. I mean the dreamers FEEL like citizens and that’s what’s important.

Over 1 million tweets say it's Trump's shutdown. This is going well for the GOP and 45. Really well.

Nope. They had a deal. Kelly nixed it. It's Trump's shutdown.

If only.

It's on POTUS. And on CoS. Since when is he in charge of keeping the government from shutting down.

Trump is just running America like his business. We are simply in his bankruptcy phase. MAGA

DP, but the PP made a point that you twisted around. The problem is the rules allow illegal immigrants to get in-state tuition, and your response is "that's the rule." Well, that's the problem! Why are children whose parents broke the law getting advantaged over American citizens?


That person clearly has a residency issue. There's no advantage of DACA recipients over Americans. If a DACA recipient's family had a vacation house in MA, they, too, would be unable to receive in-state tuition.


They are illegal aliens. End of.

Well it wouldn’t have gotten there at Dems approach to everything isn’t - OMG we need to help the illegals. No you didn’t. You could do a clean CR without invoking the illegals at all.

This talking point just isn’t working. But keep beating it all you want!


Actually, it is not a talking point. It is the truth.
This was totally unavoidable, but the Dems chose to fight for the illegals over the security of the American people.

They are Americans who lived here their whole lives.

And you are admitting that there was no willingness to compromise. So it is, in fact, Trump's shutdown.

Didn't Trump have 6 bankruptcies before this? I'm sensing a pattern of predictable behavior.

Where is the facepalm emoticon when you need it. Reagan was fooled by Democrats into believing that they would help secure the borders in exchange for amnesty. Give us a wall and proper border security and end chain migration FOR STARTERS and we are closing in on a deal.


You've got it backwards. Today's Senate promised Collins healthcare subsidies then broke that promise, promised Flake a vote on DACA than broke that promise. Today's Senate can promise anyone anything, and by now we're all smart enough to not believe them.
