One source familiar with the meeting said Trump began with a rant lasting ~15 minutes that included his $5.6 billion demand for a wall, and threatened that he was willing to keep the government closed for “years” if that’s what it took to get his wallhttp://trib.al/ITlZfSu

He also, unprompted, brought up the Democrats who want him impeached, and even blamed Pelosi for new Democratic congresswoman Rashida Tlaib saying at a party earlier this week that Democrats would impeach the “motherfucker” Trumphttp://trib.al/ITlZfSu

Trump proceeded to tell the room he was too popular to impeach, and dropped the word “fuck” at least three timeshttp://trib.al/ITlZfSu

TSA are calling in sick already. How’s it going to work when VA staff start calling in, how about correctional officers. Fed workers are like most middle class, one paycheck away from catastrophe. Shutdown much longer and more than TSA will be banging in.
-
Every last one should be coming down with the “flu” right about now. Disaster at the airport for the well to do tends to sharpen ones focus.
-
We just returned from a trip to Colorado. The Denver airport was packed and security lines were long. We thanked all the TSA folks for being there. But we also thought this stupid shutdown would be over in a heart beat is TSA workers stopped working.

Don’t think that won’t happen. I’m pretty sure after a second missed paycheck (most have not missed one yet) that they won’t be near as friendly.

Furloughed federal workers are not striking. They didn’t choose this. The only positive outcome of this shutdown would be the GOP standing up to Trump and calling for his impeachment. Now.

Or have the guts to override his veto

Trump’s blue collar base LIVES for those tax refunds. They already spent it and are counting on it. The CC bills are coming in now. Dem leaders have him by the shorthairs if they just wait him out.
-
THANK YOU! Just what I was saying in another thread. He is hitting his own base and hitting them where they thought they would never BE hit. Oh there is gonna be some moaning in the heartland (I really do feel bad; I used to live for the refunds too)

“Strike” Wow. Unbelievable.
-
Well then those TSA workers better start picking up those picket signs and stand in front of all the airports!
-
They're too busy calling out sick and looking for another job to picket
-
True but if trump says they are on strike ...
