I'd love for Trump to show up at the wall around Pelosi's estate and declare for the cameras:
"Madam Pelosi, TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!"
Even better if she's actually home on congressional recess...
...or if he shows up with a sledgehammer and starts pounding on it!

No problem. Let them challenge it in court.
I think there might be room in the docket right after the trial for the illegal alien who murdered the first American lying in state under this EO...

I don’t think that matters. For that to matter, I think it needs to sit as a bill on the president’s desk for ten days unsigned. When the needed funds need to be there in one day, there’s nine more to go.
Not signing a one day before needed bill is like a veto, anyway.

What I said is true for when Congress is out of session and has no one to receive the vetoed bill.
Otherwise, it, in fact, does become law.

Only 8% of the federal government will be affected. And since most federal employees are off for the next 4 days (and a large percentage will taking vacation days until Jan 2), we’ll see practically no change. The ones affected will have to stay home and watch porn instead of at work.

Our $4.4 trillion federal budgeting process is worse than the budgeting process at your local pizza shoppe.

Aww, what happened to all that commity and collegiality that the Dems are always going on about? Why aren’t the Dems “reaching across the aisle” to do the right thing that also happens to be the will of the people? Over a “paltry” $5B? Tsk, tsk...

No kidding. They’ll get their money regardless of the outcome. They haven’t met a shutdown they didn’t like.

Heck, this could have happened a month from now, when the employees are not off or taking vacation and we still wouldn't notice the difference!
