Trump and his aides take hard line on border wall, as threat of government shutdown looms

President Trump and his top aides applied new pressure Sunday on lawmakers to include money for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border in a must-pass government funding bill, raising the possibility of a federal government shutdown this week.

In a pair of tweets, Trump attacked Democrats for opposing the wall and insisted that Mexico would pay for it “at a later date,” despite his repeated campaign promises not including that qualifier. And top administration officials appeared on Sunday shows to press for money for the wall, including White House budget director Mick Mulvaney, who said Trump might refuse to sign a spending bill that does not include money for the wall.

There isn’t all that much not funding the gov has to cover. Parks and monuments? I’d think they’re self-sufficient in the spring and summer. The inconvenience will be that the DC swamp things won’t get their paychecks.

Protecting the southern border IS a legitimate function of the Federal Govt.

Jiddy

An adult who treats normal every day circumstances as corporate documentable acts to cover there own [derriere].

There was a reported incident from the soccer game Saturday. That Jiddy intimidated some kid, then documented a story and somehow became a victim.

Government shut down? Order the EPA and all traitor branches of the government to shut down and send all employees home to save $$$.

[Helicondelta]

The dumbocrats still don’t get why they lost the election. They are walking into a trap. This is too easy.

All Trump has to say is if you close it down we will NOT pay workers for those days off after the fact like you have done in the past.

Then watch how fast the federal tit sucklers change their tune!

[Popman]

It doesn’t work that way...

They are for the most part union slugs

They will get paid after the government gets funded...

This will end with all us winning
While the planet keeps on spinning
We'll go back to our beginnings...
