#2 If the Wall was that important to Trump and Republicans as a whole why pray tell they did not pass and sgn a bill to specifically fund between the midterms and the New Year is IMO a good question

Two words. Paul Ryan.

Here's an interesting thought. Maybe Trump should start offering emergency contracts to private companies to fulfill government functions during the shutdown. If done correctly the government would *never* have to be reopened. Image how Pelosi and crew would react!

#4 >to fulfill CORE government functions

I added CORE I hope you agree! Doing the whole lot is how the debt gets to grow (and make the establishment rich).
