Trump responded he will NOT open the government, and will keep it closed for Months or years if needed.
That's going to be a lot of garbage on the Mall!

I just want to reiterate how asinine it is Trump/Congress waited until 2019 to get this done.

But isn't that the reason we are letting the illegals in in the first place? To do the jobs Americans won't?
Hire a few thousand of them to take up the slack and lets see what the Dems do or say?

Wait, didn't they make some kind of offer using DACA but it was rejected?

If they were smart they would have given him his wall right from the beginning.
Republicans have controlled the entire federal government for the last 2 years. This IS the beginning for the democrats. This is literally the first time they have control over anything since Trump was elected. A better question might be why republicans didn't want to fund the wall until it became impossible to do so?

Why isn’t McConnell there with POTUS?

I have a better idea Nance
Burn every three letter federal agency building to the ground with the employees inside. Nothing of value would be lost.
My compromise part? Hire illegals to clean up the ashes and throw the bodies into the Potomac

Hiring illegals to replace the federal govt employees is the greatest idea I’ve ever heard!

Getting the wall built was going to be monumentally more difficult in 2019 than it has been for the past two years. That's a reality. Trump could have stood his ground for funding for two years, but he never tried.
Now he's decided to fight, which is fine, but the timing is idiotic given the last 2 years.

Trump will veto then you need 20 Republican senators to override a veto. 2/3 vote of the senate. Please name the 20.

For extreme numbers, sure, but I've seen people say the wall is "only" $5B, as if that's a reason to do it.
Either border security is important or it isn't. The wall is a good idea or it isn't. If it's a good idea, I don't need to be persuaded by it "only" being $5B. If it's a bad idea, spending any amount of money on it is dumb.

Can’t believe nobody else is on board with getting the government running again for cents on the dollar with illegal labor. Think how much money we could save if everyone in DC was replaced with an illegal. Then we could afford the border for sure.

2/3rds of the House too.

What? They had the White House, had a majority in the House, and they didn’t have 60 votes in the Senate. So they didn’t “control” the entire Federal government without 9 more compliant votes in the Senate. Which they didn’t have. You’re dumb.

Cocaine Mitch sold him a bad line about waiting on the Wall. It’s not dumb for him to deciding to fight now. He needs to do it, regardless of the past.

The Dems told him if he agreed to raising taxes (contradicting his "read my lips, no new taxes" pledge) they would be willing to negotiate budget cuts afterwards.
He did and they didn't.
Dems can't be trusted.
