How (and when) will the Government Shutdown end?

@engineer,

This is why you're supposed to save whenever shortcomings happen like this. Is it the government's job to pay for your kid and housing?

That's your fault you want to live paycheck to paycheck. Before I lost my job, I saved up three months in advance so I would never be homeless or without something to eat.

I also wouldn't bring children into the world if I can't even barely afford to take care of myself so it makes it easier for me to save.

It will end when Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer stop being sore losers about the 2016 election that was rightfully won by Trump. Why should Hillary have won when she stole the democrat primaries from Bernie? You really think people are going to vote for you when you own side does your own side dirty? Lol.

It will end when Putin tell Trump to end the shut down.

Strange seeing a trump supporter spreading words to try to divide and demotivate the left.

Never seen that before. By never I mean almost daily.

Should be interesting to see fellow Americans in every sense of the word but the legal being deported for the misdeeds of their parents when they was children.

Hell of a gift to the receiving countries having Americans by the tens of thousands dump on them. Talk about shaking up such nations cultures!!!!!

It was interesting to see that when Trump proposed the DACA three year shield, the chattering class accused him of offering "amnesty". You can't offer someone amnesty if they haven't committed any crimes.

Is that any different than calling someone racist for enforcing the law?

Meh.

For what it's worth, I just heard Pelosi on the news. She did not say "no wall no matter what".

She said "these are the things about Trump's proposal that we can't accept and here's why".

I approve.

I do not like Pelosi as a politician. But, one thing is sure.

She is not dumb (I almost feel bad for Trump).

LOL so it was not a racist misdeed to break into someone home in the middle of the night to enforce the law that forbid a mixed race couple from being a married couple?

After all they was just enforcing the law as they dragged the man and the woman to jail an therefore it was not a racist act?

I heard on the news that the Senate is going to debate and vote on two bills, the House bill (formally the Senate bill) to reopen the government and one matching Trump's proposal.

I think the Senate votes are going to be interesting... they won't pass (either of them) but the interesting part is how many people cross party lines on each.

Pelosi is making a play for Republicans to switch sides now, she is also trying to push Trump over the edge. If he comes across as insanely angry, he will lose more support.

He lost the fight over the State of the Union, that must be really bothering him.

Passing that law was a racist act. The people who enforce that law are not.

If so, I hope the Democrats don't expect any of their presidents to ever be able to give a State of the Union again when Republicans control the House.

Many Americans believe that history will view Trump as an extraordinarily bad president. It that is happens, it might allow the parties to reconcile in the future. I know that you don't share that opinion... but only time will tell.

On second thought, I am not so sure that the pageantry of the State of the Union speech, with the awkward clapping/ not-clapping ritual, is worth keeping. It doesn't really serve any purpose.

When Democrats blatantly blocked all of W's nominees in 2007-08, did the Republicans forgive and forget, or did they block Obama's Supreme Court pick and give it to a Republican president?
