    Default Will Trump shut down his own government over his "wall" funding?

    Trump threatens to veto omnibus spending bill over DACA and the border wall
    CNBC 46m ago

    Unhappy today over lack of border wall funds, Trump threatens veto and government shutdown
    In Depth Dallas News (blog) 34m ago


    "Drain the swamp"?

    Trump campaigned on his promise that:
    - Trump would build a wall, &
    - Mexico was going to pay for it.

    Well, it was a bad idea when Mexico was ostensibly going to pay for it.
    It's a horrible idea if the U.S. $tax $payer is going to have to $pay for it.

    And now it seems President Trump threatens to shut down his own government, unless his fellow Republicans in congress do Trump's bidding on wall funding.

    Will Trump refuse to sign Majority Leader McConnell's & Speaker Ryan's spending bill?
    "It should be obvious to anyone why conservatives and libertarians should be against Trump. He has no grounding in belief. No core philosophy. No morals. No loyalty. No curiosity. No empathy and no understanding. He demands personal loyalty and not loyalty to the nation. His only core belief is in his own superiority to everyone else. His only want is exercise more and more personal power." smb / purveyor of fact 18/03/18

    it's a garbage spending bill - loaded up with pork and needles increases in domestic spending.
    4 people negotiated it.
    I'd veto it

    You have zero idea of just what is in the bill, unless of course you read all 2200 pages.

    So you choose to let others decide for you. Not enough smarts to make decisions on your own?

    seriously dude.. how long have you been following politics? like 15 minutes?
    You are a waste of keystrokes. I've come across some grotesque stupidity on message boards,
    but yours are consistent winners / Your question is utterly inane.
