If I wanted to call someone a racist I would.

The point I was making is to most independents (Not Trump Supporters OR Liberals) a shut down would look worse on the Republicans than the Democrats because they are the party in power.

Also the Democrats have less to lose because they A) don't have the senate B) don't have the house and C) don't have the presidency.

Yours and Boxcar's comments about race are hilarious here... you can close your Obama playbooks with me.

Yep Saw a lady on TV bitchin' about the Ending of Hatti's TPS.. and how she could be sent back in 180 days... after 20 years in CA... seems she fled the up-rise then extended after the quake. Course in those 20 years here never took the time to learn the language.

Sounds like you are on that idiot Obama wannabe Cory Booker's talking points email list.

Maybe in the old days, the GOP would wilt from the stupid accusations that you and Cory Booker are posing but those days ended on Nov. 8, 2016.

There is a new GOP leader in this country and he is President Donald J. Trump.

Your consistent anti-Trump meme comes into play with each and every post, despite being consistently wrong at each turn. Shameful and hilarious.

Join the CNNs and MSNBCs of the world using Booker's (il)logic and see how fast the rest of the country laughs at you.

I'm not the one who threw racism out there Mr. Booker.

I merely said a shut down will hurt the incumbent party. But okay...

I've got a pretty good bead on how these immigration talks are playing out. Even called it.

Is your good bead on immigration the same as what your bead was pertaining to Trump's business and trade acumen or his ability to get companies to agree with him on trade matters? You were so sure then but yet so wrong, remember? Nah, I guess you don't remember (but we do).

By basically agreeing with the likes of Lindsay Graham, Dick Durbin and Cory Booker on these new matters will only bring you down another peg of irrelevancy. They are all clueless and out of the mainstream about immigration. And, as a reminder, immigration, DACA, and the government 'closing' are all tied together one way or another.

A shut down will hurt the Dems more, as everyone knows why it may shut down, and most Americans won't be too understanding of someone in the military not getting paid because liberals insist on doing something about "dreamers" right now.

In addition, we're all getting tired of the constant "OMG! The government could shut down!!!!!!!!" Trump didn't start this, this is on Congress.

Name one thing President Trump has messed up on so far?

Or are you that incapable of objectivity?

The issue right now isn't with just Democrats. Republicans are having trouble among their own.

And yes Trump did kinda start this back in September when he turned on McConnell and Ryan in favor of Chuckle and Nancy.

Point of order?

If the government does shut down, does Durbin the Turban have to shut his big mouth?

As a senator, he is non-essential to the running of our country, so the answer is yes. Officially that is.

Thank You! I hope to get to 20 so I can trade them in for a new lawnmower. Kinda like green stamps back in the day. I can't imagine what you can but with 100 rep points. Maybe a nuclear warhead from Kim Jong Un
