How long does Donald keep the government shut down for until he caves to the democrats? Clearly we need CHIP to be funded and for the Dreamers to have a resolution that results in them being provided a realistic pathway to citizenship. But why is the damn wall still a thing? Mexico has said that they won’t pay for it. Yet Donald and the gop want to raise money for it? Shouldn’t the wall be DOA since Mexico won’t pay for it? Or are trumpers seriously fine pissing billions of dollars away on some goofy fence/wall?
 
I'm taking a page from last night's SNL skit "Does It Really Matter Anymore?"

except for missing my husband's paycheck, I'd say no.

That was a pretty good skit.
Btw, I thought Jessica chastain was amazing. She played every role perfectly. Might be the best acting I have ever seen on snl.
She never had to look off set to find a cue card for lines or anything.... it seemed like she had all her lines memorized. She killed it.
 
CHIP is included in the budget deal. A 6 year extension.

The Ds are refusing to vote for this over DACA.

**** DC. The Rs and Ds. They are both willing to screw over peoples lives for this ****. No reason to hurt anyone. Assholes the lot of them.

There are hundreds of thousands if not millions directly impacted by this. I blame all of them equally.

********.

Why are you angry at democrats if you support DACA and don’t want to hurt people?

The leader of the gop killed DACA and seems to be caving to his white supremacist base where hundreds of thousands of Dreamers will be deported. If democrats don’t hold out then CHIP won’t be funded and nearly one million people will be deported

The problem is that democrats are trying to negotiate with a president who has no idea what his policy positions are. Trump said he would sign whatever bipartisan agreement was brought to him, then he torpedoed that agreement at the ******** meeting. Then when Schumer brought him a deal with funding for the stupid *** wall his advisors (Stephen Miller) got in his ear and shot that down too.

Also, funding for CHIP expired ****ing months ago and could have been passed easily at any time if Mcconnell and Paul would have allowed a vote. Laying this at the feet of Democrats is a joke IMO.

Right now, this is 100% on the Republicans. They can do whatever they want.

The problem is, like Paul Ryan said, it’s easy to be the party of opposition and just say no. It’s hard to lead.

The republicans have no idea what they are doing. And now, they got what they wanted. They told us for 8+ years, that they had all the answers.

Turns out they are dumber than the democrats and have nothing. All they know how to do is be a victim, throw a fit, say no and throw money at rich people.

Pretty ****** platform if you ask me.

Republicans have a majority in the senate, but in order to pass these bills they need 60 votes which means that the democrats can obstruct. Your statement that Republicans can do whatever they want is not correct, nor is it correct that the shutdown is 100% on them. Plenty of blame to go around. Dems definitely earned their fare share.
 
I mean, Democrats are to blame in that they are willing to fight to prevent nearly a million Americans from being kicked out of their country, something that has near universal support. In a sane world the dream act would have passed ages ago and we wouldn't be in this ridiculous mess.
