        Trump is behaving an agent of Russia masquerading as POTUS. Trump is a clear and present danger to our nation. Trump should be removed from office.

        Trump said he would take the blame/credit for this shutdown. Said he'd "take that mantle" and be "proud" to shutdown the government. House passed a budget that looks an awful lot like the one the stop-gap one the Senate unanimously voted for so seems like a #trumpSHUTDOWN

        Just because someone agrees to take the blame for something it doesn’t mean they are necessarily guilty. Easy to see where the real blame lies.

        Yes, on primarily on Trump and secondarily on McConnell. House and Senate both showed willingness to pass a budget and end the shutdown, so I don't see how blame could fall on them.

        I think it would go along way to establishing rapport with the people of Alabama if you would come out publicly that you are against ILLEGAL immigration. If you hope to have ANY chance of being re-elected, you need to think about who you work for.

        No one wants open borders. I know you people worship the Great 🍊, but you don't have to lie like he does. Ask him why he hasn't spend last year's budget on border security. Ask him why he's forcing border guards to work for free right now. Ask him why he just froze their pay

        The question should be why didn’t Chuck and Doug approve the spending bill? All this falls on the Democrats’ failure to act.

        They DID approve a CR that passed the Senate UNANIMOUSLY. That's veto-proof, in case they don't teach you that over there in that frozen shithole you're in. The Dems have also revoted on the CR (that passed the Senate in Dec) AND passed a bill that opens most of the Govt.

        LOL, so you have no fucking clue what the Fed Govt does. Got it. But since you want the govt closed anyway, then why aren't you praising Trump and the Repubs for it instead of screeching that it's the Dems' fault? Oh, right, Vlad Talking Points. Consistency irrelevant.
