Assuming border security is a top issue for them. Otherwise this will not help. Shutdowns always hurt the economy as a whole, and if he actually shuts down the border (which I do not think he will) he will cost billions since no goods will be able to flow either way. The economy wins way more votes than a wall with nothing else being done about illegals.
The economy has been good, and it did not translate to more votes in the midterms.
The Left has demonstrated that propaganda is more powerful that good governance.
How long do you think the economy will do good if he closes the border?
The economy is already doing good. The question should be "How long with government workers be out from work"?
AGAIN FOR ONES THAT CANNOT UNDERSTAND. HOW LONG WILL OUR ECONOMY BE DOING GOOD IF THE SOUTHERN BORDER IS SHUT COMPLETELY DOWN?
IF YOU CARED ABOUT THE GOVERNMENT WORKERS YOU WOULD HAVE CHEERED ON THE SHUTDOWN.
Yes, screaming to an empty headed rightie who thinks the stock market and economy will stay as is if the southern border is closed. Google is your best friend if you care to search and find out what happens.
Controlling who and what enters the nation is the most basic function of good governance.
If Trump is tying to do that, he is doing the right thing.
Anyone home? If he shuts the border nothing coming in, now google what happens to the economy if nothing coming in. I am not talking about illegals coming in, it's about commerce.
