And there is no way in the world to fix this problem without dealing with the DACA issue."

Liar. What does DACA have to do with the military?

I have been sitting here trying to figure out just how those two issues correlate to each other. They don't. Graham is out beyond reality here.

I think the whole DACA thing expires March 5th. Just let it die.

“David” would have to reject this so-called progressivism. It’s never going to happen.

You're probably right, but, as the poet said, "Hope springs eternal. . . ."

And, unlike Hillary, who thinks Trump's supporters are "unredeemable," Christian philosophy provides that there are no "unredeemables," if they turn away from such tyrannical ideology and pursue freedom and happiness!

Just sayin'. . . .

Linda brings home the pork. Ever notice when a factory moves from one state to another(Boeing an example of this) it always seems to end up in South Carolina?

The way I read this is that he is for a government shutdown; of course the reason matches that of the democrats. But a shutdown is still a shutdown, and that can’t help schumer and his mob. Of course, there’s always collins and mccain eager to ride to the rescue of the government.

Shut it down. The the country see how well the economy works with the creeps out of the way.

I mean, seriously, who walks into the voting booth and says “I like that Graham guy...I’m voting for him”

“But above all else I want to rebuild the military that’s in a great decline. ... And there is no way in the world to fix this problem without dealing with the DACA issue.”

Translation: illegal aliens who average 24 years old are more important than 24 year old American servicemen risking life and limb to protect a—holes like Little Lindsey Grahamnesty.

“I know Trump bait-and-switched him on the DACA thing, but don’t become one of Schumer’s pawns over it.”

What a stupid comment.
Are you delusional, or just a dem troll?

Can’t afford to lose the repub senate majority due to judicial appointments and committee chairmanships.

Graham, of course, should be primaried in South Carolina. It’s people are conservative.

after looking into this a bit more, Linda may be right.

I seldom if ever reverse a position but Trump wants a bill.

He plays for keeps and will slam the Democrats for allowing illegal aliens to shut down the US Government.

Trump Wins.

Meh. First of all, what is in the ellipse? Those two statements are unrelated. Second, this shut down panic trying to be induced by the media is not working. No one I know really gives a crap if the Department of Education leeches have to stay home. Let them find a private sector job anyway.

Now if this means our military is going to experience problems, well, then, Lindsey and his fellow liberals need to bite hard and vote for the bill.
