I see this as a good thing. The shutdown was a disaster.

@kevindavis   You have become one of my new 'voice of reason' posters.

This is a good thing.  Everyone was totally focused on the shutdown and it was hurting Trump and his efforts to get the wall.

I certainly hope that is not what @mystery-ak is saying.  That would make us as weak and ineffectual as the cowards in our own party.

There are NO grounds to impeach Trump.  None.

If there is the will, the grounds will be found. Andrew Johnson was impeached over, among other things, 'disrespecting congress'. As you remember, Bill Clinton was impeached for process crimes that had nothing to do with the original investigation.

The problem when you get someone with no moral foundation to do what is right, they make these things easier.  Character really does matter. Now we are seeing the fruits of poor character. It may have given people an emotional high for a while, some random ra points, but it doesn't produce good fruit in the long run.

@XenaLee

After today, this movement may gain some traction again.

I hope not.  Texas joined the Union a long time ago.  The only problem with Texas is that we should have built a wall on all borders.

I think what @mystery-ak is saying is that with this cave impeachment is a fait accompli.

Oh ok...I based that on your "President Pelosi" comment.

The problem with the Texas Nationalist movements, is they are headed by a bunch of kooks who want to sell phony land grants or fake currency or just get people to their MLM meetings.

Tell that to the workers who missed their paychecks.

Yep, but the main thing was a massive propaganda effort by the media which made a lot of people think the sky was falling, people were starving, etc.

Government workers have an average salary about 1/3 better than the average worker and their benefits are out of this world.  If they haven't been able to save enough to get through a short shutdown, they are poor planners.

@Emjay


Thank you.  I'm for border security as the next guy, but what Trump should have done is sit down with leaders from the House and the Senate work out a deal.


But no, he had to listen to Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh and Fox News.  That was a big mistake and it hurt Trump.


Hopefully this is the last Government shutdown period.  They never work.

That's how I see it.   The Dems had the brass balls not to fold, since the mainstream media has their back and paints Trump as the villain for shutting down the government.   

It's time to declare the National Emergency and put available military funds to work.   

Thank you @Jazzhead   We could float DC with all the hot air being spewed on this forum

It's lucky Trump doesn't have to rely on the fair weather friends on this forum.  I suspect there is more common sense among the regular population.

That's bullshit.  If he had listened to Rush Limbaugh, he would never have caved to Pelosi.

You should be glad I'm not in charge!  If I was, about 2/3rds of them would be missing their paychecks permanently!

@Bigun   That is, in fact, one of the things Trump is working on.  If he's allowed to continue, we will see a gradual but substantial decrease in useless and redundant government agencies and workers.
