A #TrumpShutdown hurts the men & women who keep us safe: taking away paychecks from 41,000 federal law enforcement & corrections officers – plus nearly 90% of Homeland Security employees.pic.twitter.com/dEho7pSSb7

Maybe @realDonaldTrump and @HouseGOP can’t imagine living paycheck to paycheck like most Americans. But the #TrumpShutdown will force nearly 800k federal employees to go without pay – right in the middle of the holidays.

We live paycheck to paycheck, but I say SHUT IT DOWN until congress acts to protect our citizens!
-
Senate already had a bi partisans CR to fund Everything. The wall is an expensive and useless prop. Trump had a fit because someone he watches on tv said something bad about him.
-
No. He stood up for wHat he believes and what we want! It’s not throwing a fit to want something and stand firm. Fit throwing is Schoomer.

Most Americans don’t want this wall. We are a nation of immigrants and you are a fearmongerer’s dream. He is a liar and completely incompetent.
-
We are a nation of LEGAL immigrants. The wall isn’t to discourage immigration but that of ILLEGAL immigration. We welcome a million new legal immigrants a year. The US isn’t a Walmart. There are laws to enter any country.
-
Dear, most illegal immigrants overstay legal visas or enter by some other means that the southern border. There’s already a ton of security there. The wall is a waste of money.

As an American, I can tell you that you need to support this wall. It's to protect this nation. It can always be opened when we can improve our laws to allow legal immigration more easily, and protect this nation's citizens. Don't be stupid. Be a leader.
-
Why waste money building a wall just to take it down later. We need better vetting and assessment when they enter the border. Keep who is legit, and send the rest back. Simple.
-
And just how are we going to keep those we don't want from simply walking across the border like they have been doing for years. Sorry, but 99% of those coming from Mexico and SA don't stop and check in with anyone when they sneak in to this country.

A 5 BILLION dollar wall. Trump said he would gladly shut the govt down and it would be on him. And it is. We need further review and discussion to come up with reasonable border solutions. The govt should not be shut down over this. And no one should accept this.
-
It absolutely should be shut down. Nancy and Chuck's childish egos have no place in this country when they place their hatred of DT over the security of ALL Americans. DC has been playing this losing game for decades and it's time to make a stand. I applaud Trump

He has always did he would need DEMs support and we all know that will never happen. The Dems hate Trump more than they love this country and the will say and do anything to make him look bad even if it makes us suffer

I guess if you possibly cared about this country as much as Donald Trump you would fund the much-needed wall and there would be no government shutdown. You should be ashamed that you could politics before the citizens of this country. This is from a lifelong Democrat.
-
Grow up, read. If Trump cared at all he would keep his word to have Mexico pay. Again by his own words, he was taking full responsibility for the shutdown. Truth is that he doesn't care.

That account you replied to looks like a bot to me
