Build That Wall!!

You’re arguing with democrat business owners.

Their concern about illegal immigration is that it isn’t legal.

They don’t like American wages rising and want to flood the market with cheaper labor.

They don’t want to pay for their employee’s healthcare and believe everyone should pick up the tab.
It is a lot of republicans to, it is both parties

You are worried about the 5 billion when the government waste that much monthly
No. If Democrats are fundamentally against the wall, there’s no reason to give in on funding the wall at $5 billion. Everyone knows Trump will just be back for more.
The Democrats won the House. They hold the purse strings.

The president is on record as taking responsibility for the shutdown. Proud of it actually. Why should Democrats help the president out of a corner he painted himself into?

They can't get employees in the door with out offering a bonus and benefits after 9 months. And you think someone will do it for 12 not a Mexican.maybe a Honduran because they will work for even less. Someone asked me if it was racist if we paid Mexico to build the wall for like half the price. It's like a catch 22. A restaurant owner starts business why wouldn't he hire the cheap available labor and pocket more money. It's not like he will pass his saving cost on to the consumer. Illegal labor has kept wages down in construction jobs, restaurants, factories, hospitality industry, these hotel and restaurant. And other owners pocket the money because the market decides prices for many goods and services
Your dime store economic theory is a very poor attempt to side step the issue of whether or not New Deal legislation which includes Taft Hartley would survive the scrutiny of the hard line conservative SCOTUS If you're under Taft Hartley then you should be very cautious when it comes to embracing a hard line Supreme Court because overturn Taft Hartley then all of the wage and labor law protections you may be enjoying at this moment are gone with a simple 5-4 vote.

He will just keep it shut because in the end the dems will look insane withholding 5 billion when that much gets wasted. It just ends up looking they care nothing about the border or safety.

Ummmm. No. Do you even understand the situation?
Ummm, you were talking about Israel? They erected a wall on their southern border to keep out illegal immigrants from Africa. Had a real problem before that. You're holding to the idea that people just fly in and overstay their visa, even in Israel. Some, but not most.

He can own it all he wants because it is what he said he would do. This is not a surprise, dems not giving 5 billion or 3 billion is just silly
Elections have consequences. The president can take solace in that he has two more republican senators...for whatever that’s worth.
