When will Republicans like Mitch McConnell go for country over party, forget Trump's wall and reopen the government?

@katielass Until Trump negotiates something reasonable or forgets about his border wall.

@SW-User I get it now. Surrender to the demands of the democrats or keep the government partially shut down permanently. Your choice.

@sunsporter1649 As stated before, even the Republicans negotiated with other republicans a bill to end the government shutdown and Trump rejected that too. So no-one is at fault except for Trump. This is why I believe Trump's border wall is only to appeal to his followers (so he can get re elected again) not give Americans security. Your quote on Trump ending the shutdown means a surrender to the demands of the democrats is a tell-tell sign.

Trump is fighting for America. We need a barrier. However I don’t see why both parties can’t meet somewhere in the middle. Give border security 2-3 billion to do what they want within. If they need barrier let them put it in the high risk areas that would make there job easier. That’s a win for both parties. And judging by what I hear from border security they need more barriers to help them do there jobs. Nancy and Chuck interrupts everytime there briefed on it.

@SW-User Let me see, open the government and do not build the wall. Sounds like a democrat win to me. Whouda thunk it!

@sunsporter1649 Not building a wall sounds more like a reasonable stance than anything. Plus who the hell wants to pay for that thing for the next several decades? You know, to keep it running?

@SW-User Cheaper than paying the $70,000 a year for the 400,000 a year that are pouring over the wall now.

@sunsporter1649 Well the border wall would cost 25 billion or more once it's built since it would take several decades to build. Adding on to that would be for repairs. That's definitely not cheap. And Americans would be paying that for several decades or until some one decides that a wall is not necessary to have.
