It's believe it's only right that we stick with not giving trump his wall.

If our party leaders cave in, trump will use these government shutdowns again and again to get things his way.
We need to keep his feet to the fire. Please let your congressman and senators know they are doing the right thing.

I agree with this totally, but I feel for those federal workers who are paying the price for Trump digging in.

The longer this goes on the more it makes Democrats look bad to Independents though. I agree with what Nancy is doing, I just hope it ends soon for the sake of the employees, the party and the country.

He bragged today that the wall will be finished in two years. If the shutdown tactic works for him this time, the Don won't hesitate to use similar schemes to demand more and more wall funding.



BUILD A WALL & CRIME WILL FALL! This is the new theme, for two years until the Wall is finished (under construction now), of the Republican Party. Use it and pray!
