Yea, shame on him for trying to get congress to do their job.
What? You mean the GOP congress? The one this shutdown started under? The shutdown Trump and turtleneck McConnell started?
What happened in the last 2 years JinMi? This border wall is an emergency right? Why wasnt it an emergency January 2017 huh? Why now? Hmm? The wall is and has always been priority right?
Keep on digging JinMI. All in for Trump. All in. Sacrifice everything.

He did the right thing however - he basically threw a tantrum because of his wall, and stopping the inane pointless shutdown made sense. I think border security and immigration is an important topic. I don't think for a moment it's a national emergency, imminent peril type of situation - and it's sad he convinced so many of his followers that it is.
Priceless. Trump was wrong for asking for something you believe in. Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No I think you're misunderstanding him. He's saying that he believes in border security as it relates to immigration, but doesn't believe its a national emergency.
And how many more millions do we allow in illegally before its considered a emergency? I mean since 20 million is such a laughably low amount.
The number has been steadily decreasing for a decade, which would indicate that rather than an emergency, the severity concurrently is also lessening. Since Trump was mum on the 'Mexico illegal immigration emergency' a decade ago at its height, its logical to conclude that the current outrage is of political manufacture.
,Sure, you could frame it that way.
Like previous PotUS candidates, this was on his agenda.
I understand, you NEED this to be a Trump issue.
Frame what that way? It's a fact the shutdown was started under GOP held congress, pushed by Trump. He even said on national TV he'd take full 'blame' for it. You've seen it. Frame what? There's no framing of the facts here.
This was his top agenda. His campaign ran on this. It was his flagship promise. He had 2 years JinMi but what did he prioritize instead? Oh yes yes yes, more money for the military industrial complex and tax cuts for the rich. The border wall has always been a matter of great urgency right? Yet he brings it to the forefront now threatening all manner of things? After he had both houses for 2 years? Hm?
This wall is a Trump issue.
More bud?

This wall is a Trump issue. He shut down the government because of it. There's need for me to make it his issue. He's made it loud and clear it's his issue since day one. It's been his campaign warcry bud.
More bud?

No wall funding for you mr. tRump. Congratulations to Chuck and Nancy for getting the man baby to finally wake up and smell the votes. Then again, maybe the the mueller should get the credit. He needed to get stone out of the headlines quick and what better way than to cave on the wall.
Don’t worry mr. tRump the deplorables will forgive you no matter what you do. Your base of dead Enders will never waiver in their support.

Do you think that the government workers that were raiding the free food banks will go to the grocery store and pay back what they stole?
