White House counselor Kellyanne Conway says there are two sides in the government shutdown debate — one which is trying to seriously negotiate and another that plays “silly semantic” games for political points.
During an appearance on “Fox News Sunday” for a segment on the ongoing government shutdown, Ms. Conway lamented when the discussion turned to the difference between “steel slats” and the “wall” along the southern border, calling the topic a mundane distraction to the broader issue at hand.
“It is a silly semantic argument because people who just want to say ‘wall, wall, wall’ want it to be a four-letter word and not respect what Customs and Border Patrol and ICE tell us they need, which is enhancements at the border,” she said.

Is she including her own spouse on this list ?
Spell it out.
Democrats are putting fraudulently documented foreigners ahead of citizens.
Schumer, Pelosi and the rest of the RATs are definitely doing exactly that!
Democrats support illiterate disease ridden criminals over illiterate disease ridden citizens.
America needs those drugs, the Government needs them more.
She could spell it out even more clearly: Democrats are getting American citizens and legal aliens killed and are quite happy with the result. They have blood on their hands and elevate the criminals over the law abiding.
You make a valid point about both money sources in my view.
Trump and his crew are definitely holding the moral high ground on this. The Democrats look petty.
This is the hill to die holding. Democrats are screwed, and they know it.
The only hope they have is the media forcing Trump to back down.
Agreed...The Dems are squirming trying to figure a way out, I pray President Trump will stand fast and believe he will.
The Democrats forget that the fence is as necessary to good border security as the flashing is to a good roof system. If the Democrats don’t believe it, I had a roof system for them. May the rain leak on their Georgia O’Keeffe hanging in their $950K North Arlington home.
She ought to tell her husband
Kellyanne has hit on something very important that neither side has really mentioned: It’s not the people, it’s the drugs. The meth, heroin and fentanyl are coming across the border with Mexico. Drug abuse is rotting out our communities and killing thousands of Americans.
THIS is the point that the Republicans need to start making.
Bump!
She bears that load - let’s speak with celerity....slamming a strong Trump proponent for her spouse is petty and counterproductive....
