Even better than “The Schumer Shutdown” would be “The Schumer Shutup” !

And you think they will override a Trump veto? Without a paid for wall, this goes nowhere.

And once Trump uses the veto, this becomes his shutdown and not Schumer's.

Not that thinking voters care, but the democrats and the media (I repeat myself) will make a LOT of hay out of that.

I'm sure Trump's advisors will advise him not to use the veto.

LBJ said: "I'll have those niggers voting Democratic for 200 years."

The democrats are hoping to get the same from the illegals, dreamers, lottery, and chain immigrants.

Replacing lottery/chain migration with a merit-based system is what scares them.


Certainly, this is what they are opposed to. Chain migration is geometric migration. Each new Democrat voter can bring 18-20 more Democrat voters. The gist of the whole anchor baby scam.

I’m sure if presented with a bad amnesty bill, Trump will tell his advisers to stuff it and veto it.
He wants to be re-elected and MAGA.

The wall is an allegory for the stand against illegal invaders and the defeatist GOPe. That is why the left is terrified.

Losing slave voters is what they are afraid of. “...yearning to breathe free...” never meant get free stuff. In the context of the American Experiment, it means freedom to succeed or fail on the basis of one’s own merits. Politics and the art of the election (popular, not republic) has subverted this into an entitlement mentality which could eventually destroy all possibility of freedom in America.

I firmly believe that the DNC could not allow America to see what a non-weaponized shutdown looks like. It would have exposed Obama et.al. as the criminal d-bags that they truely are. Go Vikes! Um never mind

The Dems wanted DACA now. If coupled to the CR, they would not have to negotiate funding the wall when that came up later.

It was a bad gamble to try it as it will be much harder to get what they want for DACA, chain migration and the lottery. All the POTUS has to say is these are the people who chose illegals over the military and 9 million kids.

That alone will piss off a lot of Dem voters.

All McConnell really said was he would bring it out for debate. That’s a nothing burger.

The chain migration and anchor babies from this 800,000 people will produce enough democrat voters to guarantee a blue nation.

As we all know, Democrat interest in immigration reform, is in simply assuring a continuing and steady supply of new Democrat voters.

Democrats were wiling to toss the men and women of our military overboard to protect their illegals... That's sick. When dems realized the truth was getting out - that their gatekeepers in the MSM weren't able to lie for them successfully, they caved.

Be we all saw the democrats - and their true colors. No one is going to forget Democrats care more about illegals than about Americans.

Schumer and democrats, are most fearful of one thing.

That thing is not DACA going away.

That thing is not the building of the wall.

That thing is not LGBT issues losing battles.

The one thing that scares democrats (with Schumer as their leader), is....

Losing more ground in the 2018 elections, because, they don’t have anything to run on to take away republican control in any chamber of congress.

Another way of putting it, is that, they don’t have a winning platform.

Therefore, they need to demonize Trump and republicans on any issue which democrats think they have some leverage in. DACA, immigration, women’s issues, Obamacare, minimum wage, etc.

Whatever they think can bring in votes.

Democrats are up the creek, and they know it, and that is why they are coming unhinged, no matter what the issue or topic of the day is. They are preparing for major losses, by pretending that they are in good positions to retake congress, and they are willing to lie to the people, by pretending that they are doing great in the polls, which polls are “fixed” to show democrats being favored. It’s simply the method of “trying to make it happen” by talking it up, but they’ve got a very deep fear that their expectations are never going to be as they wish.

If you negotiated with Trump on something that he has said no to at any point in the past,

And he shakes your hand in a deal..

... Then you have lost and Trump has won. This has been true since 1980 when people started to keep track of Donald J Trump.

But the job of a politician, especially a communist one, is to spin spin spin and spin until he seems the victor. And that has been true since the inception of liberalism.
