Government shutdown cost U.S. more than Trump's wall demand
Michael B. Kelley 6 hours ago
Lost productivity from furloughed workers and weakened economic activity during the 35-day partial government shutdown cost the U.S. economy at least $6 billion, according to a new analysis from S&P Global Ratings.
With the end of the government shut-down, will he now stop pandering to the deplorables?
My husband and I were discussing this. Mr. Zenstyle said, "he's known in Washington as a very bright guy." I expressed astonishment at this statement. Can this be true?
If so, McConnell is surely not going to countenance more shenanigans by the asterisk president. Or will he?
McConnell learned that a growing portion of the GOP Senate may be willing to turn the turtle over on his back and let him bake in the noon sun.
Hate to break it to you, but your not like us. When we lose our jobs through no fault of our own either, we don't get the mainstream media pleading for us to get paid, don't have politicians begging for us and don't get the pity of the left. Instead we're told it's for our own good since it's the lefts ideas that have put us there.
Just stop. When 800,000 of anybody, Federal or Private, are suddenly held hostage and don’t get paid for the work they do, believe me the media will be on it.

I am surprised that he could keep them in line for this long, I would have loved to be in the room with some of the prior meetings, There was a lot of pressure in the republican senators for this disaster and the landslide was imminent and would have been embarrassing for Trump. McConnell knows that Trump went too far this time and told him so Thursday night.
remember that it takes two to tango, and pelosi is just as much to blame since she refused to deal with trump at all.
Pelosi didn't shut down the govt. Trump did, and he even promised to own it on national TV
