While also saying that the shutdown isn't needed at all because he could claim a national emergency and use Department of Defense money to build the wall.
This is what happens when you have a mental toddler in the Oval Office.

So if Trump feels he can build his wall by declaring a national emergency and using DoD money then why would the Dems bother to even listen to any negotiations? Call his bluff and tell him to go ahead and do it while continuing to push for an agreement to end the shut down.

Exactly, would it be too mean spirited or un american to have a few people do some community service and pick up trash?
Liberals say, nope not gonna do it, let Trump pick it up!

If you see trash, pick it up. If you see someone that needs a hand, give them a hand.

Scary.

People have been on them for only a few centuries, and do significant damage when left unsupervised.
That is kind if the whole reason why they became protected.

umm...those lands aren't "protected" because of average, everyday Joes and Janes. They're protected from development or other encroachment.
Maybe one of your dumbest ever.

I just did.
Lincoln pushed for the Yosemite Grant Act (and later presidents and Congresses followed suit) to protect the natural spaces FOR public use. That is to say that they were created to preserve the space FOR the people, not FROM them.

For people to use, yes.
But, just like society as a whole, there has to be rules.
Lincoln lived in a time that he could not have envisioned the volume of people who would eventually utilize these places, nor the resources necessary to keep them as pristine as possible.
To me, any lasting damage to these areas would be the most tragic part of this childish drama.
