Sheer insanity, the shutdown has cost more than the amount being askef for in the first place. So that puts paid to any arsehole on here complaining about the cost.
https://www.express.co.uk/news/world...nment-shutdownPRESIDENT Donald Trump has vowed to plough on with his controversial border wall regardless of Democrat support after he signed a stop-gap funding bill, ending the longest government shutdown in US history after 34 days and 21 hours.
Trump wanted $5.7billion (£3.8billion) to fund the contentious campaign pledge - but the shutdown itself has already racked up a huge $6billion (£4.5billion) bill, according to S&P Global Ratings estimates.

Maybe Trump will give Citizenship to Dreamers for some Wall money?
Will democrats yield on the wall for anything, though?
Nancy and Chuck’s ‘good-faith’ bargaining is similar to Arafat’s when he rejected the 2000 peace proposal. Because Arafat didn’t really want peace.
In other words, do democrats care more about Dreamers or humiliating Trump?
I think the answer is pretty apparent.

I don't see where there is any choice anymore.without fences we simply cannot control the border.
Which is a national emergency

You’re making too much sense lol.
Controlling the border is one of the first orders of business for any sane country. I’m beginning to question whether ours is sane or not. But right about here, some wag will pipe-in with ‘but illegal crossing numbers are down’.
Well, the stock market goes down from time to time—but it never stays there!
‘But most illegals over stay their visas’. So what? Do you leave your windows open when you leave the house because most thieves try the door?
‘But most of the heroin and fentanyl doesn’t come across the border’ [a dubious proposition]. So what again? That any at all gets into this country is unacceptable.
‘But most terrorists over stay their visas’. Most lol? You get the idea. There isn’t a good argument against a permanent barrier along our southern border.

Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.
D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.
Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".
