These clowns need to start acting like adults

Democrats, and Republicans, every single one of them are acting like children

Good thing When I'm running for president, if I'm elected, I will put a stop to stupid shit like this

CR for three weeks, then we're back where we are now except CHIP is off the table since the CR will ensure its paid for 6 years.

CHIP never should have been on the table in the first place as it was highly popular on both sides. Good that it's fixed though.

Can't pin this as a "democrats choose illegals over children" issue now, considering that was never the point. If McConnell renegs on the DACA vote, it'll be a "McConnell lied" issue. Blame lies sorely on him for a shutdown at that point.

It was McConnell which denied keeping the Troops paid during this break but the Republicans (Pence himself went in front of the troops) tried pinning the blame on the Democrats.

So I dont think the Republican party is really above trying anything at this point.

When was the last time the government shutdown twice in one year? Hell, basically twice in a month. Because that's all this will lead to.

If Dems want to keep the Dreamers, they should have to fund the wall. That's a fair compromise.

So what's the argument over? I still don't have a clear understanding of why the government is routinely threatening to shut down

For the theatrics, simply put.

If you're not looking for any honest discussion, agreement, meeting halfway or middle ground, don't bother arguing with me. Selfish narcissists need not apply.

This is 5th grade behavior, picking up your ball and going home because you don't like the outcome of the game

how about these crybabies do something beneficial for this country for once.

Just Republicans being obstructionists. Because apparently that's all they know how to do after spending the entire Obama years doing nothing but.
