Democratic [sic] leaders are urging President Trump to drop his proposal to spend $5 billion on a border wall and avoid a partial government shutdown, saying the proposal does not have enough votes to pass Congress

The Dems know that popular support for the wall is much higher than they let on.

President Trump needs to keep the issue, and keep it moving forward at extra fast pace.

As for the Dems?

President Trump should give his response in Spanish.

"No"..

How did that work for Bush... when he caved on the ‘no more taxes’ pledge?

And us 2 for that matter.

Shut down the government.

Including the entire border with Mexico.

Televise an announcement from the WH with the VP and various other “leaders” on camera quoting the numbers, projected costs to the taxpayers etc, vs 26 billion total cost for the wall, and announce the closing of the entire border coast to coast.

Declare it a National Emergency and deploy National Guard, Marines, etc to known high traffic illegal crossing areas.

Announce “because of the government shutdown over democrats refusal to fund The Border Wall, there can be no immediate resolution to the issue, the border with Mexico is going to be closed for an indeterminate amount of time.”

Publish a list of democrat party contacts for the public to contact to “pursuade” them to fund a complete wall.

If GHW Bush had been on our side, there would already be a fence.

Bush League Republicans must become extinct before the Republic does.

They just don’t want to have to defend THEIR position under the spotlight of a shutdown.

Certain.

If Trump agrees not to push for the border wall, he can forget about 2020.

Of course they are because they know his supporters won’t like it one bit if he does. Dems are snakes.

As I understand this, the justices refused to hear a case on STATE’S rights to fund or defund things, in part SUPPORTING an Arkansas bill that defunded PP.

Of course the Democratic party wants to stop the wall. They’re anti USA. They’re Soros bought and paid for!

To borrow some famous words
“...whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender

They’re going for the old “Read my lips” move they pulled on Bush; and the Just this time only amnesty move they pulled on Reagan. Them RATs been doin’ this manipulating since the pre-civil war years. I just keep praying he stands his ground on the wall and releasing the docs on them as threatened.
