Trump threatens government shutdown over border wall funding

[Morphine Prince 109,645]

President Donald Trump threatened Tuesday to bring the U.S. government to the brink of a shutdown if needed to pressure Congress into funding the border wall that was a centerpiece of his 2016 campaign.

Delivering a warning to Democratic lawmakers who have objected to his plans to construct a wall along the U.S.-Mexico frontier, Trump called them “obstructionists” and said that it was time for the U.S. to crack down on illegal immigration.

"If we have to close down our government, we’re building that wall,” Trump told thousands of supporters gathered in Phoenix for a campaign-style rally. “One way or the other, we’re going to get that wall.”

But what good will the wall do though? 

This ain't the 10th century,there are other ways to enter the country than just a wall!!!And imagine all the creatures and plants he'll kill to achieve this!!!

It saddens me

He cares so much about this wall but could give two shits about affordable health care, better education systems, and the tensions in his own country.

Hmmmmm

This is so scary because my mom works at the IRS and when the government shuts down, we don't get a pay check.

He wants to build a cult of personality, keeping a loyal band of followers in case he isn't confident for the 2020 election as well as if he gets impeach for any valid form of treason they will still be there supporting him.

That's hardly his decision and given the way that he treats republican law makers, it's not entirely clear that they will go along with it.

Another day, another embarrassment.

Trump is a narcissist. For him, the Presidency isn't about working for Americans. It's about getting attention and padding his pockets.
