Democrats are hurting poorest Americans the most with the Schumer Shutdown.

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Except in this case:

1. Trump is not going to acquiesce.
2. Democrats are not going to get their funding.
3. Soon, Trump will be forced to take drastic action to ensure continuity of government.
4. A lot of poor people are going to be hurt bad.
5. Most all of those people are former democrats whom will be mighty pissed off at Chuck Schumer.

If I were Trump, I'd see to it that every last democrat in Washington voting to take the country hostage loses all back pay and benefits.

Just exactly how would you accomplish that?

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Because they need 60 Senators and they only have 53, that's why.
All 53 voted for the CR, and no democrats.
This is why it's Schumer's Shutdown.

One Democrat and one independent voted for the CR.

We're in a shutdown because Repubicans want to pass some draconian bullshit that's going to seriously hurt millions of Americans.

Nah, the GOP wants healthcare eligible to citizens only.

 

[frigidweirdo]

Food banks are emptying out and SNAP benefits are about to stop as the Democrats hold the government hostage to insure their precious illegal immigrants get the health benefits they need. I have to give the Democrats credit for their consistency. It's always America and Americans LAST.

Ah yes, another Republican shrill telling everyone how it's always the Democrats' fault, ALWAYS. WITHOUT FAIL.

The Republicans could shit on your face, and it'd still be the Democrats' fault.

CR just kicks the can down the road and delays the inevitable

Republicans need to pass a BUDGET

 

[SweetTea]

Do you think the more times you tell that lie will somehow make it true?

All they have to do is to vote for the same resolution that has been passed several times before. They choose not to. That is on them.

You mean the same thing that has already been passed multiple times? The same thing Democrats have voted for in the past?

 

[SweetTea]

Keeping health subsidies for struggling Americans guts nothing

Why are Republicans such pricks?
Find money for a ******* ballroom but cut healthcare for the working poor

You mean the ballroom that is being privately funded? You guys are so ignorant.

Trump finds the money for extravagant bling but cuts money for those struggling to buy health insurance

Ballroom is a waste of money whoever pays for it

If the budget had passed, we wouldn’t be in a shutdown

It is up to Republicans to craft a bill capable of passing Congress

The budget can be negotiated. The CR just keeps spending at current levels until a budget can be negotiated. Democrats shut down the government because they disagreed with continuing the current level of spending which they previously voted for. Sorry, it is all on them.

 

[hadit]

It’s not over.
A Continuing Resolution only delays

Why don’t Republicans pass a budget like they are supposed to.

Because Schumer. You know he'd just filibuster the whole thing until he gets all his demands met. No negotiations necessary, just holding the nation hostage.

It's up to the minority party to negotiate like adults, not hold the nation hostage.

Democrats are willing to negotiate

Return healthcare subsidies for working Americans
Stop lying and saying Democrats want health insurance for illegal aliens

You can keep your tax cuts for the wealthy and pass the budget

My way or the highway is not negotiating

And there is the rub. The same rub as the CR....democrats
want to spend, spend spend.

Your post is riddled with BS, RW.
The democrats want that 1.5 trillion add on. They want the debt, and
so do you? Why??? You don't even live here.
And YES, the illegals get free healthcare.

 

[hadit]

Democrats are willing to negotiate

No, they're not willing to negotiate at all. It's meet all their demands or they take their ball and go home.

Return healthcare subsidies for working Americans

Which they took away in the first place.

Stop lying and saying Democrats want health insurance for illegal aliens

You can keep your tax cuts for the wealthy and pass the budget

Who is saying that?

My way or the highway is not negotiating

As Schumer is clearly demonstrating.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Another lie

Illegals don’t get Obamacare

Of course illegals don't. So give them a new label so they aren't called illegal. Call them, refugees, asylum seekers, temporary protected status, given parole. They are still illegal but with better press.
