Good for those who are affected but this drama from both sides achieved absolutely fucking nothing. Way to waste our time.

So now Trump has given the Dems three weeks of reinstated Gov to make a deal, which is what they were asking for. Let's see how much more reasonable they are now and how often they actually show up to meetings. My guess, things won't change, and Trump can shut down again and put the blame on the Dems and make it seem like it was only their fault the entire time. Well played.

That's one reading of the situation I guess....

Or the Dems can deal and give into the wall and say, look, we told you so, all we wanted was for the Gov to be re-opened because getting people back to work and receiving missed pay was the right thing to do. (even though they already said the wall was immoral and the wrong thing to do)

That should look good on the Dems, especially with the way in which the media will portray it, since the average lefty doesn't actually seem to be all that much against the wall itself or it's small price, but for Trump and the right, they really couldn't care less, because they'll have their wall, and it'll be seen as a win to them.

Next Sunday is the super bowl so if people did not go to work next Sunday it would be chaotic.

Haha, Republicans are pissed. So much for their "expert deal maker" - he's getting $0 for his wall from either the Democratic Party or Mexico. Pathetic spin after pathetic spin to try to put the blame on the Democrats was a losing battle, as fat Donnie's approval began to tumble, and disapproval reached record heights. 5 weeks of wasted government time by America's laziest and most low energy President in history.

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has said caving on the wall is the end of Donald's Presidency.
Ann Coulter "Good news for George Herbert Walker Bush: As of today, he is no longer the biggest wimp ever to serve as President of the United States."

He is threatening to declare a state of national emergency on the 15th of February. What's the emergency? The fact that he lacks competence as a negotiator?

The wall is a fucking stupid idea anyway. He should instead focus on Space Force and fight real aliens instead. Yes, it's just as stupid of an idea, but at least it will be entertaining, and might generate some interest in science for the right wingers.

Weird how Trump people keep getting arrested for lying to congress or FBI. Pretty obvious Roger Stone was about to be fucked.  Least there isn't guilt by association. No worries though. Old Donny skin tone will match his new outfit when he joins his buddies in prison.

PFF! It didn't do that at all, his approval rating dropped like a rock that entire time with +20% blaming the Repubs over the Dems for the shutdown.

lol, you have given no reason for the Dems to deal while the government is shutdown.  Yo have the president saying he will shutdown the government if he doesn't get his way and he has stated he will do it again.  You have presented absolutely no reason why the Dems would continue to go down this route. You continue to state that the government shutdown is Trump leverage and that is where you and Trump are wrong.  After all this time, Trump had to concede because your leverage wasn't working.  So it appears you were wrong.  The Dems stood tough and Trump needed a way out of a stupid plan that failed.

As to your opinions, as the sayings goes, even a broken clock can be right twice a day.

You will have to forgive me, I have no clue what you are talking about in your third paragraph.  You made a silly comment about federal works who are not getting paid and you turned it into some kind of right wing rant.  Yes, I do believe people who think 800K not getting paid no big deal is self centered.  Even if they get back pay, they still have to worry about all the penalties for car, mortgage, utility bills you name it.  Not including food or any medical issues that can occur.  I guess living in your world where you do not have to care about the plight of such people is all good, but I happen to know a bunch of federal works and their issues.

Lol, that ship has passed.  If you believe Trump can make that same play again you really are deceiving yourself.  The Dems isn't given him a wall unless he gives up a lot.  If he tries the same shutdown play again, he will definitely see even worst results.  I guess Trump showed the Dems how weak they are and continue to play people like you.  Keep up the good fight, this is just getting started.  Now Trump will feel what Obama felt when you have opposition in Congress.

You can put your hopes that he goes for the Emergency route.  That should be even more fun as he lose more Republicans in the Senate for that move and probably more voters.
