The dems have 48 senators. Two of those will vote for the funding.
Should not be a problem even with Capt. Queeg, Collins and Murkowski.
Efn rinos.

Trump has (remarkable) political instincts. I think he will take this to the mat, and I think he will drag the GOP along with him, though there are (far) too many in the GOP who are sold-out globalists, who really root for China. (as do many in the Democratic party, as well) Trump has been VERY good with his political judgement thus far. I think he is maybe heading toward true greatness. He understands the importance of the wall. I think he does anyway. I sure hope he does.
We will get the $$$ for the wall or the government shuts down for good.
These Rinos are playing with fire right now since we want the "Wall" and no amnesty period.

1.6 billion is the monthly tax revenue of a state/province in a small country (like Canada). I can't believe these arseholes are being so cheap. They can help Bush pass 500 billion in bail outs to the investment banks without a heart beat, but we will fight over 1.6 billion?

That’s because the democrats had 60 senators and 60 votes for Obamacare. Republicans have only 52 senators. It makes a difference.

Well Sas, I guess it seems easy, but the Democrats had 60 senators at the time Obamacare passed. That is why it passed: otherwise, it would have fallen victim to a filibuster. It’s a little difficult to get 60 votes when there are only 52 republican senators.

The Border Wall will be funded by the Rat party and the GOP.
The Rats are running too scared these days which is unusual.
To: Sasparilla
Agreed, never surrender an advantage in the hope that your opponent will return the favor in the future, because they will not.
To: Mariner
They got 60 votes for Obamacare.”””
EVERY SINGLE VOTE WAS DEMOCRAT-—NO Republican votes.
