'It's a free-for-all': shutdown brings turmoil to beloved USnational parks

OK, let's say this isn't necessarily the best way to do it. It certainly will increase border security, not hurt it. So, what's the problem? Two problems, the Democrats are in favor of open borders and they want to stick it to Trump. Smart compromise is to give him a little something, build a section of wall, prove it does not work. Then carry on like mature people, not kids throwing a hissy fit. At thi point, even if they give him chump change it will make him a winner and they caved. Not a good solution. |

But building a small part of the wall won't prove whether it works or not. It will undoubtedly just about eliminate infiltration where it's built. They will simply move to other areas without the wall. It will though show how much wall can be built for X billions. If Trump was demanding $25 bil, I'd say he's wrong. But after two years and being reduced to less than $5 bil, clearly the shutdown is on the Democrats. |
