    Republicans won't support the funding CBS news.
    Next corporate tax cut
    Delayed.
    Next well let's keep the government open. We will see this ain't winning
    This is reality Congress can hold hearing debate and did nothing.
    Can we get some fresh faces in here
    Give rep the opposition role they know and love and fire these encumbants these idiots are ready for vacation I guess doing nothing is a ton of work.

    Trump does not understand politics is my opinion.
    He is President and usually that is the party leadership position. But Trump was never accepted by the established GOP . and he won't work with the words . GOP gave him the wall funding but was going to place it in a appropriations bill to increase border security. Not good enough for the hacks in 1600 Pennsylvania ave. Where no one would dare vote against border security initiative he insists it must be a clean bill that is for the wall. Which will never rise to an actual vote and die in committee Luke millions of drafted bills have.
    Same with health care everyone would be pleased to amend and approve again won't budge on the language. Could he please have someone remove bannon from that mans ear drum.
    You won't be able to shape policy telling congress you must work with congress . at this point I like to see if congress can even pass government should remain open. What a friggin cluster FCK this is becoming.
    Daughter was in Germany all I here about is the 3 sec boo did they fail to mention that I anka was sitting to the more powerful position left of center center figure is The IMF chairperson.
    Trump governing is a learning curve but we do not elect a King you must work with congress and stop making a piss match with the courts. Cause a law can be unconstitional a lower judge can deem it not lawful but unless the supreme court hears the case their choice what ever the lower court says stands.
    Grrrrr..... This is going so well its frustrating to watch obvious stupid mistakes the same Obama did in 2009 when he offended the GOP. Those ehks are easily to offend hold grudges for life and takes N act of god to remove any encumbsnt do to for finances of the campaign cycle.

    Trump should just start a go fund me page and whoever wants to pay for the wall can donate. Quality will be determined by amount of donations.

    He should out his money where his mouth is and make the first and largest donation to that go fund me. He doesn't care about America. He is, and has always been, self serving.

    President Useless begged the Mexican President not to say Mexico wouldn't pay for the wall. Read the damn transcripts of the phone call. How pathetic.This is the "big negotiator?" Art of the Deal my a**; more like Art of the Steal because he stole votes through his lies.

    Now he has another self made mess on his hands. My dad taught me a long time ago that if you always tell the truth you don't have to remember what you said.

    Like a bad nightmare this too will end but not fast enough for most Americans.

    At the end of the day, well rather than Mexico, Donald J Trump is asking US tax payers to pay for his beautiful wall. The so called campaign promise has been built by broken lie or joke.

    In all seriousness did anyone other than the undereducated Trump dope actually think Mexico would pay for the wall?

    How stupid are you to think such nonsense?

    But as mentioned, nonsense and lies got this dufus elected...so it is par for the course.

    but Sundance that can't be right. Remember Obama said and I quote " There has never been a candidate more qualified for president than Mrs.Clinton "   LOL  

    and WallStreet, Mexico will pay for the wall with the increase they will get when shipping their products into this country.

    Oh really? I do not think so..

    The moment blondie starts an import tariff with Mexico it will enrage the owners of his presidency...I do not see that happening at any time.

    You do realize that Trump got in off the backs of corporations and PACs right? All you have to do is look at his staff and decisions thus far if you lack the understanding of the concept.

    So when is Trump going to update us on the Carrier situation?

    Tax increase on Mexican products coming into America amounts to a GREAT BIG BEAUTIFUL WALL at little cost to the American taxpayers.

    Division of powers in US political system is designed to make bad policies harder to implement.  Various reasons why a wall is a bad idea.  US-Mexico border is already well defended and a wall won't improve defense much.  Cost would be much higher than original estimate.  Mexico won't pay for wall.  For years, illegal immigration has already declined according to department of homeland security.  No or little evidence that immigrants take jobs away from native-born Americans.

    Trump base will love paying the tax on building the "great beautiful" stupid wall, ideology just blindsides everything in their part of world. Unfortunately, they also pull down everyone with them in this country.

    A long government shutdown would cause great harm.  Everyone in government (especially Trump) would be blamed by the public.

    Shutdown would be a giant step in making America Great Again! This would be a victory for the people aka deplorables, not the priviledged!


    BTW what is the difference between lie/mislead?

    You think Mexican companies are going to absorb your tax increase? 

    You're now justifying increasing taxes and increasing Government. You sure you're not a closet liberal? Maybe it's time to come out of the closet LRM. 

    This is why I've voted Libertarian/Independent the last three elections. You can't tell a true difference between the GOP and the Dems anymore.

    Agree...and it makes me wonder what the crap people who voted and support this guy are thinking, what motivates them to be ok with such a horrendous leader.

    The family was trying to watch AGT this week and down here we were forced to watch that atrocity event in downtown PHX instead. We always DVR it so I didnt have to watch much of it but even the remote, itsy bitsy part I did see was so offensive I could not believe it. Trump and his "poor me, mean media" schtick and the MORONS in the crowd chanting stupid, unintelligent really really pathetic things.

    Is this what society in general really is? Selfish, stupid, brainwashed people?
