Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.) will break with President Trump and vote to reopen the government without funding for a border wall, his spokesman told The Denver Post editorial board.

Gardner is one of three Republicans expected to vote to advance the "clean" funding bill.

Gardner’s spokesman told the Post that the senator planned to vote for a “clean funding bill … with no border-security funding attached.”

I’d prefer the Praxis explosion instead.

There is ONE party in DC. They represent themselves. When you finally accept this, everything makes perfect sense.

This is BS. All this will do is reset the RiF timeline. Don’t fall for it. Pelosi only lies. It is a trick.

Start calling them! If they get enough calls they will change their minds.

(202) 224-3121 Capitol Switchboard

Find a zip code in their state and use it to connect.

This is such nonsense. Good grief Trump, declare the security of our border a matter of National Security and get it done. GOP is always playing every game with at least one hand tied behind our backs.

Use military temporarily to make the border AIR TIGHT. Catch smugglers and dangerous types every day, and talk about the arrests and numbers. Let people know just how bad it is/was.

Pronto, now, our nation is at stake!

There’s nothing clean about any funding bill.

He knows he cannot win re-election so he’ll be free to go Full Frontal Flake.

Meanwhile the dem-infested legislature of Colorful Calirado is about to make our presidential votes irrelevant by only allowing the Electors to vote for who wins the national popular vote.

Permanent flyover status.

Who will follow his orders if he declares a national emergency?

Not going to be a declared National Emergency sadly, Trump won’t pull the trigger as his handlers in the WH and the GOp will not allow it.

The repubikan party died during the O’muslim usurpation when they allowed and funded his fundamental transformation of America. They then went to war against the one man who was trying to save her, PDJT.

It’s a completely FAKE PARTY. The washington generals to the left’s harlem globetrotters. The party is deader than a door nail.

There is no hell hot enough for these traitorous scum

“Why don’t they just make it official and switch parties?”

I used to ask the same question, and then the light went on. Because they can do more damage from the inside e.g McCain, Ryan, Romney......

I guess you’re right.

I was always against an EO because the courts will very likely block it, but this way isn’t working either. Plus, once a few turn their back on the President, the other weaklings probably will as well.

Bring in the Executive Order.

Yep, little girlie man Cory will soon be joining another loser that went against POTUS, remember congress critter Mike Coffman? Most of the republican politicians in Colorado are weak little boys that couldn’t make it in the Democrat party.

We would have probably lost these three anyway, but President Trump giving Pelosi a political victory over the SOTU just before these votes shifted the momentum and made it easier for the squishes to support the Democrats.
