I don't know why you're seeing it this way. Right now I'm very disappointed in President Trump. Now the liberals will make more and more demands not just on the border but on other issues including forcing expanded abortion and more Planned Parenthood funding and their push to socialist medicine.
I would have preferred for Trump to go the scorched earth route and keep the government shutdown indefinitely regardless of the damage (even if all air traffic is grounded), , because if the far left isn't kept in check both in terms of border security and in general, we won't have a country anymore anyway.
Now we see the liberal elites in the media gloat and Schumer and Pelosi with those smug faces. I still support Trump over the Democrats but I do think that we let the enemy win this time. Now the illegal alien hordes will be even more emboldened as they invade our nation. And yes I'm allowed to say this because I am the son of LEGAL immigrants of color.
I was just a child at the time, by my understanding is that the outsourcing of American jobs began under Reagan's watch because he made the mistake of trying to negotiate with the democrats/RINOS back then, and he allowed many of their demands to be met, which resulted in major changes with how businesses are run, which sent them moving oversees to escape from the regulations and taxes the democrats demanded. Seems history is repeating itself.
Hmm you DO realize that it was Trump who put those people’s paycheck on hold. This ShutDown was on him from the start. He admitted it on tv himself so to blame anyone else for those people suffering without a paycheck on anyone else other than Trump is just crazy.
Trump shutdown the government and admitted it. We can negotiate and debate border security for the rest of trump’s term, but the government doesn’t have to be shutdown for that to happen.
Exactly. It was a bad move on his part from the start that did nothing but hurt our nation. Now let’s see come February 15 if he does it again
That’s what they want you to believe. There are better ways to protect this country from illegals without the stupid wall funding which should have been paid by Mexico as he promised.
The problem is that for the Kool Aid gang it has become a symbol so it’s either the Wall or nothing.
I understand why you people on the left hate Trump. I don't understand why you think open borders is a good thing. There is already another caravan forming south of Mexico. Do not believe the lying Democrats and your lying left wing media. This is a gigantic crisis and we as a country need to do something about it fast. Whether it's a border wall, increased border security, change in our asylum laws or whatever. We must come together and do something immediately!
What if Pelosi's victory is a phyrric victory? One vlogger think Trump opened temporary for some other reasons, like giving his state of the Union. https://youtu.be/OdEcXN05-cM
Of course he gave in to give his address.
It’s all about exposure for him.
What is he going to say that will impact the country when all rational people will hear, if they bother to watch, is: “I threw a tantrum and made people suffer.”
My 18-month old great-grandson could give a more meaningful state of the union address than will this president.

LOL, I'll bet if the media said the wall would help to protect this country you would be singing that tune.
Well, there is no other way to spin it...he caved and caved BIG.
I lost respect for him due to this, it was just 24 hours earlier, when he was posting on FB how he would NEVER cave, he would keep it shut down for months, years...heck, we didnt even get to months long! LOL
He is pathetic and should step down immediately now.
People were not getting paid. Nancy refused to negotiate while Trump was trying. Trump did what he had to do so people would get their paychecks.
LOL, I'll bet if the media said the wall would help to protect this country you would be singing that tune.
Wrong, but you don’t know me so that’s what your media says you should believe from people that disagree with you.
The biggest attractant for illegals to this country are JOBS. As long as companies and people are willing to hire them for cheap labor they will keep coming.
