President Donald Trump said he would not force a government shutdown over wall funding and border security before the midterm elections, suggesting that he made a deal with House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. “They’d rather not do it before, they’d rather do it right after the election, they don’t want to do anything to upset the apple cart,” Trump said in an interview with Fox and Friends host Pete Hegseth aired on Friday.
Trump said that if it were up to him, he would force a shutdown over border security but that “many great people” urged him to wait.

Trump and the Senate Republicans have Saved the United States for at least another 40 years... the Supreme and Federal Courts will no longer be dominated by people who ignore the rule of law and invent their own.
No matter what else happens, DO NOT FORGET THAT!
Getting a federal judiciary who understands and respects its role and constitution, is a MULTI GENERATIONAL WIN..... The Days of Courts inventing legislation are over.
Ryan wants everything delayed because he’s hoping the Dems take the House which means nothing delayed will get done.
Experience has taught that a resigning person will slow down work, take things less critically, and in general skate along, usually to the detriment of the company. In private industry, when someone resigns, they are walked from the building. Ryan’s resigned - he needs to go home now and let someone else take the reins.
Nor do tbey want a post-election shutdown.
They will never govern conservatively.
We all should certainly pray that you are right!
