Kiss the Republican majorities goodbye.

Largely correct.

But you don’t do it in a CR. You do it in a budget. There will be no budget by end of week. There can be only a CR by then.

DON’T YOU MORONS UNDERSTAND? THE DEBT CEILING LOOMS. Not the Wall. Not PP funding. Money to pay troops. Money for Soc Sec. That is not like govt shutdown. That is debt ceiling stopped.

Wake up. This isn’t about ideology. It’s about function.

It’s about blackmail.

The democrats are holding the republicans hostage threatening to filibuster the CR. And the republicans are caving.

If they want to filibuster and shut down the government because of a wall, I say let them do it. It will rally the republican base and make them look like fools. I don’t see the downside.

We have no confidence Ryan, the RINOS or anyone in power is in favor of funding a wall-EVER.

No wall, no vote, no majority for the Republicans. The only problem with that is the WANT to be the minority party.

Is there any indication that the Republican like being the majority? I see none. They would be happy if Hillary had won and they were in the minoroity. The are weasel dicks. All.
