Why are Democrats trying to shut down our Government?

They have shown contempt for ordinary Americans because they care more about stopping Mexico from paying for the wall than they do about their own Government. They have no credible plan and this will backfire on them.

I thought Trump was saying he will shut it down if they don’t do something about illegals

Illegal immigrants aren’t America’s fucking issue at the moment, this douche bag trump doesn’t know what the fuck he’s doing and it’s showing.

You’re a troll @Karlbodge

@Dateless I am not a troll. I am a pragmatic Conservative who supports Trump's plan to make America great Again.

Why are you supporting someone who doesn’t support your actual values?

Was it because the other choices were a Jew and a woman?

@Dateless No, Trump was the best-qualified candidate. He is a business genius who wrote The Art of the Deal. He has the highest intellect and best moral values.

No he isn't an no he didn't. Tony Schwartz wrote it. He spent 18 months with Trump and was sued by Trump because Shwartz estimated Trump wasn't worth the 5 billion he claimed to be worth...Nearer 250 million said Shwartz. In court Trump admitted that he estimated what he was worth by 'how he felt' on a day to day basis.

Part of his resignation letter.

[quote]I have said from the beginning that the armed forces of the United States should not be the policeman of the world. Instead, we must use all tools of American power to provide for the common defense, including providing effective leadership to our alliances. 29 democracies demonstrated that strength in their commitment to fighting alongside us following the 9-11 attack on America. The Defeat-ISIS coalition of 74 nations is further proof.

Similarly, I believe we must be resolute and unambiguous in our approach to those countries whose strategic interests are increasingly in tension with ours.[b] It is clear that China and Russia, for example, want to shape a world consistent with their authoritarian model gaining veto authority over other nations’ economic, diplomatic, and security decisions to promote their own interests at the expense of their neighbors, America and our allies. That is why we must use all the tools of American power to provide for the common defense.[/b]

[b]My views on treating allies with respect and also being clear-eyed about both malign actors and strategic competitors are strongly held and informed by over four decades of immersion in these issues.[/b] We must do everything possible to advance an international order that is most conducive to our security, prosperity and values, and we are strengthened in this effort by the solidarity of our alliances.

Because you have the right to have a Secretary of Defense whose views are better aligned with yours on these and other subjects, I believe it is right for me to step down from my position.[/quote]
