You asked a question in your OP and it was answered. Now you are sliding your argument all over the place like a troll. If you want to shift the conversation to hating on CRs, that's fine, but don't pretend like republicans had a way to make the budget bill work outside of completely capitulating on daca while getting nothing in return. Giving daca away virtually guarantees that immigration never gets fixed.

I am against DACA and stand with the GOP on being firm against it.

I am bothered they apparently have no intention of going away from CRs after railing against it for years. Trump has been in office over a year and they could have worked on a budget before we got to this point. Except they didn’t.

Unless they are playing multi-D underwater chess with this to somehow blow the Democrats into oblivion. Which I approve of, but I am doubtful they are that devious.

No argument that the status quo seems to be what the pols are getting away with.

That's just not true. Trump had a budget proposal and so did the House budget committee. The issue is dems won't support it, so it goes through the ringer and what you have left is a fricking CR, which no one wants, but you gotta pay the bills somehow. It's no different than during the Obama administration. Obama had a budget proposal that even dems wouldn't vote for.

In this case dems said no on the budget and no on a CR that was only proposed to prevent shutdown and defer the immigration and greater budget discussion to March.

You are the one being slavish to your never Trump.

Simple fact. Dems refused to vote for even a clean bill. this is 100% a Democrat shutdown and their refusal to sign any bill without adding in DACA proves they are willing to shut down the country over illegal immigrants.

I hope they keep it shut for a year.

You know how I know you won’t be getting laid anytime soon?

Because pathetic losers repel women. And someone who trolls political forums while being openly dishonest just to score points to make himself feel better is fricking pathetic.

So good luck jerking off for the foreseeable future, retard. LOL
