This is in nobody's interests yet the democrats demand unreasonable measures to support common sense.

Has anyone noticed in the commentary and commentators - the ones from America go at it like:

yeah thx - this is of course the Schumer shut down and President Trump who has no doubt been the greatest president since - anyone ! get - go - the master will rise up and solved this problem as he has solved countless others in a wonderful and lustrous first year

or ....
yeah thx - Trump yet again has caused a damaging shut down ever ! deffo more than last time whenever that was. He is undoubtedly the worst first termer we have had since the nonenties of the 1800s....his first year is an unmitigated disaster

no wonder we cant get an clear idea of what is going on

- the Republican commentator said the last close down was twenty years ago and he wasnt challenged on that

I remember the cool president's administration going through this pantomime years ago.

It's just politicians showing what they have at heart, themselves first and always and if it gets them on the telly, all the better.

Is this too much to ask?

The Republicans want funding for border security - including the border wall - and immigration reforms, as well as increased military spending.

The Democrats have demanded protection from deportation of more than 700,000 undocumented immigrants who entered the US as children.

Typical lefftie approach, they think more about their future voting stock, than they do for the security, safety and well-being of their own people.

AOG....."Typical lefftie approach, they think more about their future voting stock, than they do for the security, safety and well-being of their own people"

Leftie ? In America ?

This is all the fault of Trump. Its happening at a time when he is in free-fall, after his disgraceful language in the Oval Office. Its his bed, so now he had better lie on it.

//This is all the fault of Trump.//

And where were you blaming Obama when it happened to him on his watch?

It's all an oddity in the US when a totally unrelated bill can be attached to something like the budgets and bring it down.

It will work out, as it did for Obama, and Trump will remain as POTUS no matter how much the left froth at the mouth.
