Senator Schumer Speaks After President Trump Walks Out Of Meeting Over Shutdown | TIME

To Pelosi and Schumer:. The livelihood of 800, 000 Federal workers vs the security of 330 million Americans. Just give the money for the wall and the government reopens and the country is safer.

[stimpyfeelinit]

I'm from Australia - I literally don't understand why they don't want to build the wall on the southern border. Do they value non-citizens over citizens or something?

[jftnd]

There are people that really think he is the greatest POTUS In history....let that sink in.

[comanderspartan]

Just build the wall and government opens.

[locadisa]

Just end this shut down already. My bills are due!!!. I won't be working next week if I don't get paid. Trump is playing with people's lives. He will get reminded in 2020

[gabster]

THESE 2 ARE SO TWISTED! BUILD THE WALL!!

[digger]

I was a Democrat, but you convinced me I was wrong, Chuck.

[markroath]

From all appearances, the participants of these meetings are more interested in making post meeting interviews and coming up with one liners than resolving the shutdown situation. With all do respect, these participants should be ashamed!

[imranpatel]

Border security without wall is like birth control without contraception.

[thedriza]

Stop being a government worker and you dont have to worry about shut downs

[dedesmith]

Even the American natives in Arizona agree.

[mrsnelky]

Democrat proposal (anything opposite of what Trump wants)

[dopeexotics]

The wall is being built bottom line chucky....

[dedesmith]

Innocent people, right what about the American people by the border that have payed a government to give them a sense of security and they have failed for 30 years, explain that shumer,

[goodwinwithers]

Chuck is coming apart at the seams. He looks deranged.

[simonhuunter]

Can someone here actually explain from your own reasoning you want the wall.

[bkdmode]

Drumpf's "negotiating" tactic: "You won't give me what I want? Then screw you guys, I'm going home... upstairs..." I can see why Drumpf's base loves this, but his base is not enough to win re-election. Drumpf's best chance in 2020, is for the Dems to nominate someone even more hated and distrusted than Hillary. It is amazing to me that the economy can be so good yet the sitting president can't get more than 40% approval on a great day.

[pennsyltuckyden]

ANY OTHER REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT WOULD HAVE CAVED LONG AGO AND TAKEN A NICE LONG CRISTMAS BREAK. THANK GOD WE HAVE PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP. HANG IN THERE MR PRESIDENT WE HAVE YOUR BACK.

[dedesmith]

Why should trump open a government that is not interested in protecting the Americans security, if they won't help the president do his job why should he help them do theirs, the security of the country comes first Schumer not your paycheck.

[especiallysi]

Our President has a backbone he aint going to bend on this issue he is going to get shit done
