    Assuming there’s a shutdown, it’s hard to see how it ends quickly. Immigration is one of the most difficult issues before Congress. And one big lesson from the 2013 shutdown, which lasted more than two weeks: It’s easy to shut down govt, it’s very hard to open it back up

        As @Lawrence guest stated, "It's easy to shut down govt with Tom Cotton & aide Stephen Miller running domestic policy."

        Exactly why Trump shouldn't have treated it as a game when he took away the protection from the 700,000 #DACA kids. You simply don't do it. Let the GOP eat cake now.

        in a conventional sense, that might be true. but you're dealing with a toddler tyrant president & i doubt he has the patience to wait things out like a "normal" president would...especially given his addiction to cable news.

        The immigration issue was solved in Congress. Trump torpedoed it after saying he supported it. This shutdown is entirely his fault. He can’t close a deal and he doesn’t know how to govern.

        Dems aren’t asking for full immigration reform, it would be nice but right now they just want the Daca recipients protected. It’s what trump, ryan, and the rest of the gop promised the America public. Protect the dreamers, fund chip and Dems are in that’s it

        It is hard to reopen the gov, but it is really hard to confront the core issues we—as a nation—need to confront in a budget, to say nothing of what we must confront not tied to $$. I’m with @NBCNews: this is about not wanting immigrants in the US. #NoDreamNoDeal

        Am I remembering correctly that the last government shutdown cost the American economy $23 million? That number sticks in my mind.

        Will open up very quickly. Trump wants to celebrate his one year inuguration.

        EPA says it has funding till Jan. 26. The mission is to gut the Government. More staff will leave. More chaos when/if it opens back again. They will use this for as long as possible. With Trump and parts of GOP encouraging leaning hard on their leverage. It’s going to be ugly.
