If Trump were clever , he would use the “shutdown” to fire thousands of useless, hostile Federal bureaucrats at EPA, the Department of Education, State, the Pentagon etc. Anyone hired in an appointed administrative position between 2009 and 2016 probably should be terminated. Hey, there is no money to pay you and permanent layoffs are absolutely necessary.

Schumer’s body language is full of hate. His hate for Trump gets in the way of doing the right thing. His far left wing media work force are hypnotized by Schumer through hate.

Why did the Donald do a 180 on the shutdown? Pecker puss Pelosi gloating over her victory. Not complicated.

Oh and Rush’s comment....less than nothing...

7.8 Billion is also in this package for Disaster Relief, which includes relief for the California Wild Fire disasters. If the Democrats in the Senate want to make California residents suffer even more, the longer they hold out, the worse it will get.

I'm pretty sure the shutdown is gonna last til Spring, so most will find other jobs anyway.

The RATs cannot cave, and neither can Trump. Whoever caves will likely lose 2020.

Prior to the last budget impasse, President Trump offered congressional Democrats a surprisingly generous deal, offering to accept legal status for nearly a million DACA recipients in exchange for funding of the border wall. True to form, though, the obstructionist Democrats rejected the President’s good-faith overture, even though the $5 billion he requested for the wall would have accounted for less than 0.004 percent of the amount Congress ended up appropriating.

...

It has nothing to do with money. $5 billion is pocket change for the Swamp.

Democrats don’t want the wall because walls work.

If I were Trump I would herald a government shutdown. I would absolutely own a shutdown and then wear it as a badge of honor.

"I do not want a government shutdown, but Congress has forced me to shut down government operations. When Congress fulfills their obligation to the American people, including funding a border wall, then we will immediately resume all government operations. Until then, I call on all members of Congress to get back to work on behalf of the American people so we can move this great nation forward again. Until that time when Congress acts, I will cease all government operations."

The dirty media will continue to spread propaganda promoting Socialism. The Trump hate is out of control, as the country suffers from political nonsense.

You have raised the salient point

If Schumer does not rally his Senators to pass the bill he will destrit California.

California can not go forward with out the disaster funds
