Shutdown: Message from Commandant of the Coast Guard

I’m proud of him for standing his ground. He represents the millions of Americans who voted him into office. Not the fraction of that who voted Nancy and Chuckie into office.

It is Chuck and Nancy proudly standing in the way of Americans not being paid.

Yup. Not the President of the United States. Just the President of Trump Voters. Didn’t vote for Trump? Enjoy the soup line, dirtbag.

Hell of a message to send.

He wasn’t voted into office by people. He was voted in by the electoral college.

The people voted for Clinton.

As we are so often reminded.

Chuck and Nancy didn’t take the federal workers hostage. Trump did.

The American people who want border security voted Trump into office.

No one voted for Nancy or Chuck except for the fringe in their districts.

Trump owns the shutdown because the American people who voted him into office demanded border security. Ergo, the American people own the shut down.

Darlin? The American people started the shut down.

Trump was voted in as President. Not Nancy, not Chuck.

One correction. Schumer is a Senator. The residents of the State of New York voted him into office.

And thank you for admitting you only expect the President to represent those that voted for him/her. This will work quite well when Trump is sent packing and the Democrats are back in the White House.

Yet, border patrol and ICE isn’t?

You dont hold Workers hostage to get what you want unless you are Trump or a Trump supporter

Seriously

Obviously if you’re Trump or a Trump supporter you don’t much give a ■■■■ about 1.5 million furloughed workers. Unless they voted for Trump

I hope they receive bonuses up and above their pay, in some small part to compensate for their suffering during this political escapade.

If the American people wanted a shut down for a wall, 59 million of them wouldn’t have elected 235 Democratic Representatives.

It’s really that simple.

Trump =/= The American people and It completely absurd to even suggest as much.

Didn’t he say that when he was planning on vetoing a bill that appeared on his desk? Has a bill appeared on his desk to sign or veto?

Members of the army – being paid. members of the navy – being paid. Members of the air force being paid.

Coast guard not being paid.

quasi military.

One created the impasse right when the new Congress was about to come into power.

The President isn’t fooling anyone who doesn’t want to be fooled.

All of this pain on American’s in order to satisfy the demands of a made up crisis by Trump…

All the evidence aside which clearly demonstrates that the wall is a waste of time and money.

If this truly was a “crisis of national security” then why was this not prioritized when Republicans held both chambers? Cause they know this is nothing more then bluster and a poorly thought out political ploy.

Exactly. Where was the “emergency” before the Nov election? All of a sudden it’s a crisis? I call BOVINE EXCREMENT.
