US Government Shutdown- It's Over!... For Now

[Xmara]

I believe at this point in the shutdown, my late grandmother would start running a tip board and have family members bet on when it ends.

I’m putting my money on February 30th.

lol, too my many critics who I am sure enjoyed their posts, at least I call both Republicans and Democrats, non political saints equally, both sides not just the Republicans, not just the Democrats, both sides, fair and balanced post.

Under the circumstances of the Democrats intransigence on the legal and illegal immigration issue which is a serious issue in the USA and all over the world, I say use the political tactic, declare the emergency and build The Great Wall of Trump, it does not make the USA a dictatorship, it does not make President Trump a dictator and it is not impeachable, but the Democrats might try, making those predictions we have been reading about in the media come true.

I support a real zero tolerance illegal immigration policy and asylum granted only if it is the governments in question doing the abuse, and legal immigration with all their rights respected, not open borders immigration and asylum under any circumstances as most of my critics probably do.

If a Democrat President were to use a political tactic such as this one or any other political tactic on an issue I don't support, I would not like it either, but it doesn't make the USA a dictatorship and it doesn't make the Democrat President a dictator and it would not be impeachable, fair and balanced post.

The Great Wall of Trump could be a major tourist attraction like The Great Wall of China, visited by millions of tourists per year to help pay for the wall, with Mc Donald's, Burger Kings, Pizza Huts and Taco Bells, I would visit The Great Wall of Trump and spend my US money, and on a clear day we can see Mexico from on top The Great Wall of Trump, lol.

A wall not being built is not an emergency.

Declaring an emergency over congress not doing what you want is a shitty president by a shitty president.

I think he's mistaking your tendancy to put things in several (usually three) quote markes with the echo tags which is an antisemetic dog whistle and against site rules.

Yeah, Iunno what an echo tag is. But apparently I'm being accused of anti-semitism?

An echo tag is (((*word*))). When I see you do the thing with speech marks it sometimes throws me for a second too. But then I realise who it is posting.

I find it very disturbing how majority of the votes on the poll on "Will there be a deal to end the shutdown by Friday January 18th?" are no.

Jesus Christ, it is really disturbing to see a majority on here actually gone to the point that they no longer can believe in their own government. (Then again one could very argue that majority of Americans have already got to the point of not believing in their government even way before the shutdown and even before Trump came into office)

This has to be really alarming to see on a poll.

Also I might as well mention how bad the government shutdown is effecting Native Americans too. They aren't able to get health services and other things due to this damn shutdown.

Now I am currently curious how the government shutdown is currently affecting our territories such as Puerto Rico and Guam for instance. I can say for certain Puerto Rico surely isn't doing well due to the shutdown (I could be wrong, if so please tell me).

Not an American but the fact that this shutdown was over a wall of all things shows how bad the current administration is.

Yeah, but have you also heard that plenty of people can't get officially married or get marriage licenses during government shutdown?

Because when I learned about this a week ago, I felt so sad for anyone going through that.

Most people be like "Your marriage isn't that important than the other problems going on", well like fuck them no offense. (And I don't regret saying that either)

Yeah I perfectly understand that your wedding and marriage is not the most important thing in the world obviously. But to really be shut a cold heartless asshole who doesn't care about other people especially when it comes to wanting to have the happiest thing to happen to them, then you really should be ashamed of yourself.

I mean like what the actual fuck?

I think you're overvaluing marriage like it's some sort of sacred institution. It's just the official government recognition of a union between two people. Removing that doesn't really change love or anything really.

Thats bad. People spend loads on a ceremony to get married and then they can't do it?

Tbf, being officially married doesn't have any ceremony to it. You can still go down the aisle, say vows, etc. The only difference is the legal stuff won't treat you as married. Sure it'll cost more than being married, but you've been under these arrangements already due to being unmarried before.

Some people just say their married even before its official. I feel bad for the government service guys who wont be paid, sure. But I don't feel as bad for those who cant get officially married, when the only real drastic changes is how much your taxes cost.

And you don't need a government officiate a marriage. For all the legal stuff, yes, but for getting married itself just go to a masjid/church/synagouge/temple

People visit the Great Wall of China because it is a millenia old piece of history intrinsically tied to Chinese history and culture. It was a monumental effort of historic building practices.


The Fucking Trump Wall will, at best, be a giant rusting eyesore of metal slats or an industrial concrete wart. The only people who will tour it are sycophantics nits who will grow bored quickly as it goes into disrepair and is inevitably covered in grafiti.


Not a single damn person visits the Great Wall because it is a wall.

This notion that it will be a hige tourist destination is simply delusional.

Churches will generally not marry a couple that doesn't have a marriage license.

I'm sure the officiating priest/pastor is able to make an exception on the understanding that the licence will be sought as soon as the office is open again

any priest that refuses to perform the sacrament because of a legal fuck up isn't one I'd want to officiate at my major life events any way

Nah, nothing will ever top the 1860 election.

Even for the 69 joke there isn't going to be a general election in the US in 2069. Unless something really fucks up.

Or changes for the better. Maybe the US will have elections every year or three years..

I think he's mistaking your tendancy to put things in several (usually three) quote markes with the echo tags which is an antisemetic dog whistle and against site rules.

Yeah, Iunno what an echo tag is. But apparently I'm being accused of anti-semitism?

Triple parentheses or triple brackets, also known as an (((echo))), are an antisemitic symbol that has been used to highlight the names of individuals of a Jewish background, or organizations who are thought to be owned by Jewish people. The practice originated from the alt-right blog The Right Stuff; the blog's editors have explained that the symbol is meant to symbolize that the historic actions of Jews caused their surnames to "echo throughout history". The triple parentheses have been adopted as an online stigma by antisemites, neo-Nazis, and white nationalists to identify individuals of Jewish background as targets for online harassment, such as Jewish political journalists critical of Donald Trump during his 2016 election campaign.

So what you're saying is that marriage registrars should still work unpaid cause they should care about other peoples' marraiges?
