By posting, you certainly give a dammnnn. Your comments are incredibly lame. Get some professional mental health help, ASAP.

I have a solution to the border wall disagreement. Place old white men every 100 feet along the border and have them yell "Get off my lawn!" It will give POTUS supporters something to do besides ruining our country.

Someone please tell me if SallyV is a “woman’s man” or a “man’s woman.” A this point I could care less if Trump goes to prison. I want the vexing question on the vixen answered.

SallyV a man?

Woman be SallyV?

Muller is Coming.

Lucky guy?

But that’s not Collusion so who cares right? Besides, campaign finance violation is a REAL crime anyway right?

He’s not getting indicted while a sitting president. There’s no successful impeachment without a solid conspiracy charge. Even with a solid conspiracy charge his most ardent supporters (35%) will just say it’s all fake anyway.

Everyone surrounding him could catch fire and he could remain unburned.

I think we will see Trump Jr and Kushner indicted before this is all over. I think we will see Trump subpoenaed before this is all over. Because of that I think Mueller won’t be done for another year due mostly to Trump fighting the subpoena.

Mueller I think has been almost too thorough and Trump’s associates too dirty. If this seems like it’s taking too long then blame those dirty associates not Mueller. Mueller is just doing his job, uncovering cockroaches under every rock.

Okay, thanks! Pleased that the Trump Shutdown has ended, at least for the nonce; but sorry that so far I can't see a reason to think this as a long-term solution.

And I'm hopeful that LRCers were not hurt too badly by the last five weeks' torpor.

I hear you, brother. The next few weeks will be fascinating for political junkies and simultaneously terrifying for anyone who loves America.

Our politicians need to really get away from using shutdowns as political leverage. This is bad for the country regardless of party affiliation.

My guess is there will be numerous proposals re: border security—including proposals with MORE than 5.7 billion for border security that the Dems will support. The problem is going to be 1) Dems will insist that this funding NOT go to construction of a wall 2) they will likely ask for something like a PERMANENT DACA fix.

My guess is that if there is a 5-10 billion dollar package for border security and reasonable demands for a DACA fix by Dems that many GOP Senators will want to support such legislation. Trump may not though. I do think it is possible that there is a second shutdown.

If the Dems can come across as being reasonable and if they agree to a border security package of > 5.7 billion (but no wall money) AND Trump still plays hardball leading to a shutdown—Trump will suffer politically from such a scenario much more than the Dems.

There is now no chance for any wall funding, even in parts where it makes sense and in ways Dems have approved of before, while Trump is in office. That’s the result of Trump changing his mind about what a “Wall” is, from a huge concrete obstacle spanning the entire border to now fencing/barriers that have been approved by Congress and other administrations for decades.

“The Wall” is now a political tool. Dems have the public behind them on this and so the House will not give him his “Wall” while he is in office, maybe never. He will have to try executive order or declare a state of emergency, which will be challenged by the courts.

Although Trump likes to say Democrats want open borders I haven't read anything about disagreements about how much to spend on border patrol, new fencing and technology. The dispute has been 100% about whether Trump's wall makes sense.

I don't know what a reasonable fix for DACA would be. I believe some Republican senators would like to end DACA and don't give a sh-t about the wall, so amnesty would never get approved. Even if Trump can get his hands on DACA, polls indicate over 80% support for allowing them to stay, so if he starting deporting them the reaction would be even worse than it was for separating families at the border.

The shutdown was supposed to be a distraction from Mueller, which seems funny now. Now trump has a few million newly minted enemies who were unpaid for no reason, and Mueller is stronger than ever. There’s nothing the Supreme Court can do about it, even if they wanted to.

Disagree, nobody I work with blames Trump. We're painfully aware of border issues and it seems pretty clear Pelosi and Schumer have other motives than national border security.

Point taken, but that's actually "toeing."

Okay, I LOLed.

Opps, my super support bra busted and my boobs are sagging.

Pelosi and Schumer’s motives are to do what the majority of American voters elected them to do. And it’s not Trump’s agenda.

Speaking of border security, Trump’s policy of turning asylum seekers away at legal entrances has encouraged many of them to pursue illegal crossings to seek safety.
