Absolutely not, he told them to make sure there is funding for border security they came back with a stupid number. Anything less than 4 bll then the dems actually own this shutdown weather Trump says differently or not. Oh BS!!!! The dems are representing the majority of the country that DO NOT want the stupid wall. Trump is stomping his feet and throwing a tantrum because he's not getting what he wants.
Also I think you meant "whether", and Trump said he owned the shut down, in December, on live TV. Just because you say it, doesn't mean its fact.
What BS maybe in dem land not so much in republican. Trump shut the govt down the dems congress owns it for keeping it shut down. I think Trump should double down now and tell them for every day the govt is down he adds 1 million to the amt.

Honestly, at this point I say the dems should just give him the money so he can get to work and find out how impossible the wall is. He won't come back for more because he won't even be able to get the land needed to build. Then we can all watch him gloriously fail and go down as the worst president in history!

I do too around all 11 acres. Funny thing is all my neighbors had stuff stolen from their property but not my family, hell I don't even carry a key to my house. Like Trump said it the ones inside you want to keep safe. Do all you neighbors have large acerage too? I always wonder how things work in areas like that. Pretty much My place is a horse farm, set up for rodeos

He didn't say they will just cut a check he said it would be an easy decision to do. Maybe that is why the dems have such a hard time they read one thing and thinks it means another

It doesn't matter, because mexico isn't going to pay. Cash, check, wired funds, pennies, pesos, burritos, or burros. It's not going to happen.

It speaks to the appalling state of the American educational system. That money should be spent on schools, not walls.

The Reps have controlled both sides of Congress for the last two years. Why wasn’t this taken care if before now? (I know the answer, but would love to hear yours) PS, the Dems HAVE provided funds for border security. Just not for this wasteful monument to his ego. Other things to do first like abolish aca act....thanks McCain for screwing that up Tax cuts Now it's time for the wall he will get his money So Republicans are incapable of multi-tasking. Got it.

I fully think that will as he promised. He did not say they will just cut a check. We may have to put up the money and get it from Mexico on the back end Wrong again. A one time payment is not the same as getting it from Mexico "on the back end" From trump;s 2016 campaign site. Scroll down the page for the article: Trump backtracks on claim Mexico will pay for the wallApparently ednkris doesn't like to read my posts. So I will quote it.

Let me try. (ask an Engineer ) 1,000,000,000 is 1 billion 1x10e9 1,000,000 is 1 million 1x10e6 1x10e9 divide by 1x10e6 is 1x10e3 so the answer is 1x10e3 times more. Oh that's 1,000 times more

Oh that's 1,000 times more Even if (God forbid) trump gets a second term, he would be long out of office before that one million dollar a day fine reaches two billion. Far below the $5.6 billion trumps wants to begin his 'wall'. Hold fast, Nancy Pelosi. Hold fast.

Of course we rank 20th in public education now. In the last 50 years we have wasted trillions appeasing the war mongers that run our show, with countless military ventures everywhere. We learned nothing from Korea.
Just imagine if those funds had been directed internally towards schools, rapid transit/bus systems, alt energy, comprehensive insulation programs on all Federal buildings, healthcare programs and etc., etc.
But the wrong people are in charge so here we are...

Sorry that doesn't wash. He will get money to build it. Now maybe not what he envisioned, but he will get it so win! Top 10% hogwash the whole tier was cut. The dems just whining because the rich got some too. Like they should the rich employ the people so WIN! The aca abolishment was a failure, a massive McCain failure to do the right thing.
