I don’t understand how Military is “non essential” but Obama can hire guards to stop people from going to open air monuments. Does not make any sense.

Republicans ought to be reminded that the last time the government had a Fake Shut-Down, they gained in the next election. They will know who to blame for this one, too. Voters are not as stupid, or forgetful, as the media thinks they are.

How can the Dims shut down the government, unless they have Republican support?

Trump should try to pay the military as has been done in the past, during all those other shutdowns the Democrats caused and managed to blame on Republicans: force the Democrats be on record as wanting to choose illegal aliens over our soldiers should they balk.

Then not only get rid of DACA but get rid of it with gusto.

The Democrats have made it crystal clear to me what matters most to them. Illegals over Americans. Amnesty is the whole ballgame for them. Without millions of new voters their party will go down the tubes. The president has them in a fix!

It’s really a simple thing. The Democrats are not dynamic, they are not going to see a changed situation in anything. They are dogmatic and creatures of habit. Nothing changes with them, so when conditions change, they can easily be caught off-guard and scrambling - it’s their greatest weakness, but it can also be a strength as long as you know your enemy as well as they know and understand the GOPe.

But they are constantly caught off-guard by Trump and his ability to communicate on his own, without filters. It’s what drives them and their owned MSM media crazy and they can’t [yet] adjust to it. They are old and slow.

But I said all that to say this: The Democrats will always keep doing what has worked before - and they will only change their tactics when it is absolutely proven to them that they fail. A government shutdown, with the MSM’s help, has always in the past been blamed on Republicans not on Democrats. Therefor, they will keep at it until a government shutdown is blamed on Democrats. Then they will react to the pain they are feeling and change their tactics. From that point on, once it is blamed on Democrats, it will never happen again.

The wild card this time for Democrats is that it is Trump they face, not the GOPe. They know how the GOPe will react. They don’t know what Trump will do. So this might be the time that the shutdown gets blamed on Democrats - for supporting illegal aliens over citizens and the military. And if/when that happens, the shutdowns end...probably for decades.

“Mirror, Mirror on the wall, who’s the dumbest of them all.....DACA Hispanics”. Democrats screw the DACA folks, who are asleep at the wheel of progress, as they are used and abused for Democrat Political gain. By far, these Hispanics are not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Dumb, Dumber & Dumbest....”SAD”.

The “Government” runs for 9 hours per weekday, and is closed Saturday and Sunday.

We will find out how much federal government is needed

I support Curtailment Action for Childhood Arrivals, or CACA. As I have said before, DACA = Caca!

Shut down the military? Will ships at sea stop where they are? Will troops in Afghanistan put down their weapons and wonder off into the distance?
