Trump Wins YUGE in a Government Shutdown

[koshergrl]

The lefties will push for a governmental shutdown, then they will scream when the agencies never open up again.

Trump and Republicans will lose YUGGELY in a shutdown especially when it becomes apparent what this shutdown is about.

Americans do not support building a wall
Americans do not want people's healthcare to be used for political gains

Trump cannot pick and choose which programs he can fund. He has to follow the law. Obama went to extremes by placing barbed wire around open air monuments however that does not give Trump license to break the law.

Should we "hold Mr. Trump accountable" for any shutdowns; and have Congress pass laws to "shut down" Mr. Trumps businesses, as long as government is shut down?

A "reverse Commerce Clause gambit"?

Good luck getting Trump to sign that.

Congress does not actually require a president's signature to pass laws; just a majority.

Mexico's gonna pay for the wall. trump states so on multiple occasions

Trump also said his inaugural crowd was the biggest in history, his easter egg roll at the white house would be the biggest ever, and that Obama got the british to wiretap the phones in Trump tower.

His inaugural crowd worldwide, was.

Dumbass. This stupidity shows the ignorance of the left every bit as much as their shock and awe when they learned that hey, Russia is actually quite close to Alaska! And Tina Fey and Sarah Palin are NOT THE SAME PERSON!

Morons.

So here is reality

THe last time this happened Republicans had control of both houses and they got the blame. Now they have not only both houses but the presidency.

Go home brit, you're drunk. You don't understand the place you've come to. lol

Dumbass

That was in large part due to the media.

The media has been discredited to oblivion now.

Trumps approvals are already in the toilet. Shutting down the government won't make him any less popular.

Politics? I believe Mr. Trump will will, "cave in" first, much like the government of South Africa". our more socialized government, will keep going.

How does Trump win in a shut down when he and congress are both GOP?

They're going to play it the same way

But now there is no democratic player you could possibly blame.

Nothing is going to change, maybe if the democrats had taken the senate or the house. But not like this

 

[Marion Morrison]

Let the government shut down. They don't make my world go 'round in any way whatsoever.

Be careful though, it just might end up like when them air-traffic controllers went on strike.

nice spin, alleged koshergirl. Mr. Trump is trying to "extort" Congress for "wall money" instead of practicing any form of Art of any form of Deal.

Congress does not actually require a president's signature to pass laws; just a majority.

Without the president signing it, it's called a "pocket veto" Congress needs 2/3rds of both houses to override it.

His inaugural crowd worldwide, was..

Trump claimed the Washington DC crowd was the biggest in history. It wasn't even the biggest that weekend, because the womens day march that Saturday was almost twice the size of the inaugural crowd.

Psst..nobody cares.

I guess you missed that part of my post. I didn't dumb it down enough.

They'll both cry that the shutdown is "fake news" and blame the democrats.

Apparently you do. Since you tried so hard to defend Trumps claim, only to go down in flames because Trump claimed the live crowd to be the biggest in history too.

No need to worry folks. It's all good.

Trump Wins YUGE in a Government Shutdown

We’re looking at a possible government shutdown next Saturday, and that’s got some conservatives nervous. They shouldn’t be. Admittedly, past government shutdowns — or threats of shutdowns — have worked against conservatives. With Trump, however, it would likely be a different story....

even a partial shutdown plays precisely into the Trump agenda and his campaign promises of draining the swamp. Trump’s base, as well as “swing voters” who are fed up with out of control spending, would, of course, be cheered by such a move. Moreover, such a shutdown plays into Trump’s hands by giving him every excuse to slash funding to “sanctuary cities,” to bloated university programs, to global warming science grants, and on and on. Social Security checks will continue, the military will be funded, and necessary services will hum along while grants to study the sex life of the fruit bat will not. Deep State bureaucrats who so depend on the federal government for their very existence would be the ones most hurt. In short, Trump can not only make even a partial shutdown look like the Democrats’ fault but shield many of the (normally) loudest voices from the pain.

More important, every minute the bloated government is shut down reinforces the perception of Trump as a businessman who cuts the fat, extracts more efficiency, and makes the U.S. government more like a business. Unlike the Clinton/Gingrich shutdown battle, the control over what sectors of the government get their money is in the hands of a Republican president, not a Democrat who held up funds on the most visible and sympathetic programs. Trump would relish starving all the non-essential offices like PBS and NPR or global-warming science grants.​

Trump wins but every Republican Congressman up for reelection in 2018 will lose. And lose badly. Go ahead, me Trumpie.

That's a thought. Shut down the government, and broadcast (no pun intended) a womens match on Washington. People will be too busy watching TV to notice the government shutdown.

And the one about 3,000,000 illegals voting for Hillary was a good one, too. Proof? Nope, he doesn't think he needs to prove anything. He just blats it out on Twitter and his sheep dive in.

Trump Wins YUGE in a Government Shutdown

In consideration of a government shutdown, who the losers are is more important than who be the winners. Moreover, the notion that a government shutdown actually produces "winners" is utterly absurd, unless one is an anarchist. At best, any "win" is nothing more than a collateral impact, and no leader, more precisely no cogent thinker who finds themselves serving as a leader, aims not for genuine wins, but rather for collateral "damage/gains" and thereby chooses their course of action to achieve those ancillary outcomes. Not even the most risky and outlandish political strategists posit ideas forged upon the notion of "winning as a result of shutting down the government."

what does this mean? Money is still available, you know this right? Money may not be available for everything, you know this right? So, it seems if you don't have enough money coming in, some functions must be dealt with to match the incoming funds. Why is this so difficult for leftwingers? Cut some spending? you know this is an option right?

Didn't Trump promise to appoint a commission to investigate the millions of illegal votes. You would think finding proof of that many illegal votes would be a piece of cake.
