People pointing out how stupid the president was acting last week is not hysteria. I'm glad you are able to perfectly decipher his nonsense, but most can't.

Here Illinois, you could learn a lot:

GOP talks Trump off the shutdown ledge

Never will understand begging for bans when you can click a button and personally remove them from digital existence of your world.

More effective than begging for a ban.

Anyone remember when republicans were all about shutting down the government because it was spending too much? But now they want to shut down the government for not spending more?

What about TSA and border patrol and stuff like that?

I think I saw they’re working but won’t reveive paychecks yet.

How ironic would it be to shut it down over a walk only to loose border patrol in the meantime?

Three times in a year! Lots of specials around town though -- just got 18% off my brunch, and a free shot of Jamo.

Tsa and CBP work along with a lot if others, but aren't guranteed pay checks, but typically get a lump sum after the shut down.

The Border patrol is dedicated to Trump. I'm sure liberals would just love to see the border patrol walk.
It would make Hilldawg happy since she has flip flopped now and wants open borders.

No, you cultists are dedicated to Trump.

You don't care about bringing in illegal immigrants, as long as they're here to work for Donald at his golf courses or restaurants. You don't care about illegals at all, because most of them don't cross the border, they overstay their visas.

All you care about is defending whatever your cult leader says is important today.
Don't inject Lysol.
