Discussion about this issue might be easier if the President wasn’t a lying conman with declining faculties who can’t maintain a consistent message for more than a few days.
If a President will only accept a funding bill that contains funding for implementing the ACA or for protecting our borders, they should say nothing until it reaches their desk and then veto it?
New funding should be done under normal order, not under the threat of shutdown… you are conflating with continuing funding that was already approved.
Like i said… republicans used to be against it before they were for it…
Grassroots:Demanding something based on the threat of shutting the government down (aka hostage taking) will never be a foundation for compromise.

No funding is needed…
The wall is already being built… probably be completed in a couple weeks…and it will be the best wall ever built…
So what needs to be funded?

Oh. I’ll have to check the Republican Platform on that one.
Actions speak louder than words; look to the 2016 election results.
I don’t think anyone really knows what Trump wants at this point:
Trump doesn’t know what Trump wants at this point, apart from everyone’s worship.
The wall is already built.
The debt is gone.
Trumpcare is already in place.
ISIS is destroyed.
Hillary is in prison.
We are at war with Eurasia. We have always been at war with Eurasia.
Make America Doubleplus Good Again.
Why do I feel like most Trump supporters will accept this as gospel?
Without wondering what all the bluster was about if the wall is already being built.

He just did that to punk libruls!
Well, if the wall is currently being built, does that mean the check from Mexico came in?
Back a full decade ago when illegal immigration was much higher than it is now? Since when are decade±old votes relevant to today?
A better comparison would be the Senate passing a funding bill with no wall $$ by voice vote just weeks ago. Why are you not holding them to that?
Obviously not. It does, however, show that they at least at one time believed border barriers were effective deterrents to those wanting to enter the country illegally. And they were right.
It doesn’t follow that they’d be effective in all areas, though.
