Trump : Our government needs a good shut down. Be careful what you wish for Donnie, I guess the great deal maker couldn't make a deal.

Complete incompetence and lack of leadership from the President.

 

LOL McConnell voted against his own bill, for procedural reasons but still funny.

No one has yet explained to me why these furloughed "nonessential" governmental employees are so essential.

And ("Surprahz, Sarjent Carter!") it's the weekend and most government workers aren't working anyway!

I am sure many have no connection with the Americas.

 

On another forum many moons ago I remember an English guy who went through the last Amnesty recounting his story, he applied in Florida and was told by Security when he turned up that it was for them not you.

So the Democrats shut down the government to protect non-citizens at the expense of citizens?

But they were granted temporary legal status. 

I'm no professor of legal-ness, but wouldn't that make them legal?

You are going to have to elaborate a little more. 

Due to the annomous nature  of this forum.. 

I don't really know who you are.

Temporary is the key word

Some people here don't seem to understand appropriations bills require 60 votes in the senate to pass so if no democrats vote for it the blame for the shutdown lays squarely on them.
