President Donald Trump Threatens To Shut Down Gov’t To Appease His Base | Deadline | MSNBC

[jpbao]

Laura Ingraham: "Forget Mueller..."

No, Laura. Brace yourself because that is not an option.

[liesbethdevries]

The traumatized child bully impulsively reacts again. The wall is so stupid.

[ianj]

Jim Mattis resigns in protest, Trump is threatening shut down, Mueller coming down with indictments. Christmas will be interesting.

[ld]

When Trump's wall went from "Free" to I was just kidding about Mexico paying for it, it is a deal killer for anyone with self esteem who won't put up with being played.

[faceoff]

Make America great again Impeach Donald J Trump and Mike Pence

[tamatama]

Scew the wall, where's my Healthcare ???

[mdriver]

I’m reminded of a quote: “The presidency doesn’t change who you are, it reveals who you are”

Trump is becoming more and more of himself each day.

[patriciabell]

If government workers go without pay at this time of the year then Trump should not be using government services or funds. Trump...start walking everywhere and find a box on the street to live in.

[SidedSeb]

"Steel slats"... so...a fence?

[mj-qewy]

Steel slats...now? What's next? White picket fence?

[jqlandrum]

"He's wrong and he's eight!" Now that was funny Ms. Wallace😂😂😂

[hvymettle]

Steel slats? As opposed to concrete? So steel is bright and shiny and you can see through slats, so that will make the wall beautiful? Is the wall going to become a tourist destination? Will Americans travel to see the wall so we can marvel at it's beauty? Trump continuously demonstrates that he is unfit to lead this country.

[MikelNaUsaCom]

Someone needs to run informative adds on Fox Network explaining how the real world works to Mr. Drupmf.

[mickygarcia]

Go ahead and shut it down. It's not as if it functions anyway.

[jamesl]

Yeah Twump you are special. So special

[cathyshappell]

He promised Mexico would pay for the Wall not the people

[JetSkiBuyFixPlaySellChannel]

Trumpty Dumpty wanted a big wall
Trumpty Dumpty had a big fall
All the cheap economist
And all the stock floor kids
Couldn't put Trumpty back in the office again

Sad

[benvinodrai]

Its not about security
Its about a giant monument with his name on it.

[LardGreystoke]

Jim Jordan needs to grab his towel and crack some butts in the locker room.

[jimwilliams]

pretty sure my cordless super sawzall would get through that "wall" in about 30 seconds
