I cannot find it in me to be moved to any emotion for anyone who is suffering after voting for Trump. WE ALL TOLD YOU it would be bad, you didn't listen. Like, reap the whirlwind. This wasn't unexpected. This is exactly as bad as people with brains knew it would be. I do feel bad for people caught up in this BS who knew better and didn't vote for him. But if you did, IDGAF about your woes.

There are no coincidences.

American policies have directly contributed to the chaos debilitating Central America. Then they try to flee violence that is caused by us and we tell them to basically f*ck off and die.

Yes, vice interviewed 4 prison guards. They voted for Trump and are furious, like almost in tears.

The key to the wall’s financing, Trump wrote in a two-page memo to the Washington Post, is threatening to halt money transfers from Mexican immigrants in the US to family back home. These remittances amount to nearly $25bn each year, roughly 2% of the Mexican gross domestic product, according to the World Bank. Cutting off these money transfers could doom the Mexican economy to recession and severely damage diplomatic relations.

That memo looks like it was written by an eighth grader.

Very sad situation. They are being put in danger.

Also the TSA union is reporting that workers are starting to quit and they warn that this could harm airport security

https://www.politico.com/story/2019/01/08/tsa-screeners-quit-government-shutdown-1087269

but 90% of government workers are Dems so who cares if the shutdown is hurting government workers. Trump sure doesn't.

So Trump isn’t President of Democrat’s? If a Democrat says “not my President”, Republicans after? I thought he was President of all Americans?

That is precisely what makes Trump so different and disturbing as compared to previous presidents, GOP and otherwise. He is completely partisan and tribal; he doesn’t care about Democrats or anyone who did not vote for him. This is something you see with the GOP more broadly at the state level. If you live in a district with a Republican Senator or House rep, they will literally hang up the phone / toss your letter / slam the door if you are a Dem. These aren’t leaders they are partisans.

Such a dangerous time for our country.

Trump is terrible but, to be fair, Democrats do this too.

Are Democrats the party of shutdowns or big government? Which is it? Can’t be both. Trump really looked stupid tonight.

Trump doesn’t accept compromise. He only accepts deals where he gets everything and they get nothing. He’s had deals before and he rejected them. He does t want compromise. Trump sucks at deal making.

No. He did not get a deal on this before.

Last year, 25 billion for the wall.

What the heck did he do with the 25 billion last year?

He turned it down.

What strings were attached?

Dreamer protections. We don’t live in a dictatorship. Do you know how government w/2 parties works?

Oh please. Sadly, both parties pull this kind of crap all the time. ACA case in point.

Uh....the GOP had the house and the senate for 2 years - why not push it then? Because it's all just a drama he's manufacturing to stir up his stupid base.

+1 I'm so tired of hearing from Republican's acting like the Democrats need to give Trump what he wants and get nothing in return. He didn't get it while the Republican's were running both houses of Congress. Why didn't he shut down the government for the wall last year?

+2 Trump could throw this all back on the Democrats simply by offering something the Democratic base wants and his own base doesn't mind. Infrastructure package or middle class tax cut come to mind, among many others. It's really a pretty simple negotiating tactic. Add a sweetener, and you win. How can Trump not know this?

For the 100th time, he needs 60 votes in the senate. Senate democrats are fillibustering any bill with wall money.
