Breaking News....Trump Threatens to shut down Government over Wall Funding......

Remember when Donald Trump, at his campaign rallies asked the rally crowd..."Who is going to pay for the Wall?"

"MEXICO!" the crowd cried back.

He should have said, " ALL OF YOU ARE GOING TO PAY FOR THE WALL!"

It appears now that Trump is set to blame Democrats for blocking Wall Funding despite having majorities in both Houses. This is a ploy to save both Houses. As for Walls, he sees his crumbling down around him with all that has transpired over the past months and weeks.

Most people don't want your goddamn wall, anyway. If you shut down the government, the the only thing voters are going to remember is that YOU shut it down, not the Democrats.
