I hope he starts gutting departments by releasing furloughed gubmint workers this week.
“Trump has to deliver on something regarding the wall, he based his 2016 campaign on border security.”
Border security is a large, important issue — but, it’s far from the only large, important issue that Trump campaigned on. Trump’s record of delivery is impressive.
It would be fair to say that border security was one of the top themes of his 2016 campaign; but not that the campaign was “based” on that.
Yep the Dems refuse to show up , elected officials my cat’s butt
Just wait ‘til the EBT cards go dead next month...
These democrats weren’t elected by the people, they cheated!
The obvious question is: Why didn’t the republicans get it done when they had majorities in both houses? We all know the answer, but it makes it tough to make it all the democrats’ fault.
Soon to be trending: #GiveHimTheDamnMoney!
PDJT at SoTU address...
And all you Dreamers out there, consider that the democrats are selling you out for 0.1%, thats one tenth of one percent of just this year's budget.
0.1%, thats one tenth of one percent.

Citing a Polutico story as poll evidence? Let me guess, its that rigged Pew poll?
If I were Trump, I would turn the furloughs into permanent layoffs so the government employees could draw unemployment.
1. He gets to say they will get a “check.”
2. The check won’t cost as much to the taxpayer.
3. Those jobs can be phased out.
4. The unemployment is generally for 12 months
5. It lights a fire under the Rats because the last thing they want is to reduce the number of union workers paying dues to Rat re-election campaigns.
Don’t forget that those 800,000 federal employees are considered non-essential.
At this point I say Trump should do whatever it takes to get them to riot and then turn the tanks on them.
I’m so damn tired of this crap that I’m only half joking.
Let them go find a real job.
But seriously president Trump has the upper hand because he has an avenue to accomplish his pledge to secure the border in the form of a wall - via declaring a state of emergency.
Maybe I'm looking at this wrong but it seems like the longer this goes on the more it causes problems for the Democrats.
Build the wall - its now or never
Her Excremency
Bkmk
“Both sides are not budging”
Not true. The Trump administration has a new offer out there that helps DACA people, and they switched from concrete to steel.
“They say they want to negotiate, but have nothing to offer. “
This is inaccurate. They have something to offer - they can offer funding for the wall.
They CHOOSE to offer nothing.
Come 2020, Trump supporters will still be Trump supporters. We know the Rats have refused to negotiate. We know that the Rats are the reason the wall is not being built. Trump will not be blamed for this by his supporters.
Yet, I hope he will use the Border Crisis as a reason to have the military build the wall. We can’t afford to wait til 2021 & the hope the House will flip again.
BUILD THE WALL NOW! Keep the shutdown going & lay off the non-essential workers, for good.
The writer is being a bit goofy. I suppose he technically is a “news executive”, but I don’t even know who “RealClearPolitics’ Tom Bevan” is.
