Stop Being a Jerk and Give Him His Wall

Chuck Schumer’s obstinance and promises of a government shutdown over a border security commitment is toxic Washington stupidity. Plus, various other items.

   

New York’s senior senator made the rounds on the Sunday shows boasting of his caucus’s ironclad commitment to blocking funding for President Trump’s border wall:

    Democrats dug in their heels Sunday on President Trump’s threat to shut down the government unless he gets money for his border wall, saying if the president makes good on his demand, the American people will suffer.

    But the White House contends American citizens are already suffering — with or without a shutdown — because of the rise in illegal immigration.

    The two sides showed no sign of willingness to compromise Sunday, with just four days left to broker an agreement before the federal government partially shuts down.

    “We should not let a temper tantrum — threats — push us in the direction of doing something even our Republican colleagues know is wrong,” Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer told NBC.

    The New York Democrat said Republicans in Congress “have to have the guts” to tell the president he’s wrong for refusing to fund the government unless he gets $5 billion for his border wall.

    “President Trump should understand there are not the votes for the wall in the House or the Senate. He is not going to get the wall in any form,” he said.

Sanders says they've got alternative means of funding the wall. Ones that do not require congressional approval.

We shall see.

[To-Whose-Benefit?]

Hell of an admission there Chuckie.

Considering that Trump's promise to build one was probably more responsible for his election than anything else short of repealing O'care.

So how about you just boil it down for the voters and show them, with a raised middle finger, what You and your clowns in DC really want to tell them.
