Stick Together don't cave.

Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the democrats need to stand firm against trump's wall. Trump owns this mess. The democrats when they caved under reagan spent years getting back the votes.
Just heard a democrat rep saying Trump has quit calling it a wall. That he is for technology but didn't he just say he knows technology and that medieval wall would be a better solution?

Republicans up for election in 2020 see the writing on the wall and it says - to quote our embarrassment of a president - "Buh-bye."

get their wet dream in drowning Government in a bathtub. There is a saying. " Be careful what you ask for. you might get it." Starting next month snap payments are going to stop being made. I know at least three people on disability who also receive snap payments who are Trump supporters. Come April tax returns will not be going out and at the point the shutdown will not just be directly affecting Governments workers, poor people, the middle class, but the business class too. Basically it will touch everybody. If it goes that far I don't think anyone will shut the Government down again after Trump is gone.
