![]() If nonessential employees don't work during a shutdown and there is no difference to most people, the nonessential employees shouldn't even have government jobs. Government needs to shrink to only provide essential, constitutional functions.

![]() Trump pushed back when Democrats suddenly reversed course on building a wall after supporting it for years. Democrats supported the project to build virtual fence on the border it failed at a cost of $1 billion. Then Senator Obama and current minority leader Schumer voted for the secure fence act in 2006. But now Democrat Congressional leaders won't even listen to cabinet level updates on the border situation. ![]() Trump waited in the WH while Democrats went on vacation promising not one penny for the wall no matter how many Federal workers had to be sacrificed to the Resistance. ![]()

The House had already been alerted that there was no worry, members would be given a two day heads up prior to any bill made its way to a vote. Trump can read Yahoo as well as I, so he knew this. The wait in the White House was more posturing to make a point. The President proposes a budget. The President did that. The House writes a budget bill, passes it, sends it on. House didn't do that. Congress then sends it on for the President's signature. That didn't happen. Until Jan 1, the Repub House are to blame. Now the Dems are getting inaugurated and passing bills and stuff. Even Socialist Girl figured this out. The Dems are up to bat, and they lead 1-0. |

![]() I'm looking forward to the liberals here blaming the D's in the House for the remainder of the shutdown. I'm not going to hold my breath though.
If we can all look back to the last shutdown; the R controlled House passed multiple budgets on to the Senate that were never even put to committee by Harry Reed because they wouldn't pass the D controlled Senate or the D president. This was because the budgets didn't contain funding for the presidents signature project, so the shutdown continued and R's were universally blamed by liberals. Now that we have the same situation with the D's and R's reversed, I'm sure the liberals here will be stepping right up to blame the D's for not ending the shutdown. ![]() |

President Trump did not get his wall. Balless Republicans could have brought a budget to the floor and didn't, and the Democrats now get to make the budget. And President Trump gets blamed for it all. |
