    This government shut down thing is getting old, and Trump's behavior is growing increasingly petty. I see no logical reason that we can't end the shut down and negotiate otherwise.

    The main thing i recall is the promise/claim that Mexico will pay for it. So why this shutdown. It seems to be about american money that should be used to finance this same freaking wall.

    Yeah but Americans have forgotten about that already. Our attention span is only 2-3 weeks.

    Pretty much. It’s a man trying to keep a campaign promise for the 2020 election at the expense of the American people.

    So now what was your point in presenting this stat?

    So the cost of the shutdown to the economy is now around the same amount it would have cost to build the wall

    Don't laugh too loud.
    The EU want us to build a wall around Northern Ireland and if that ever happened, the Scots would probably want us to repair Hadrian's wall. LOL
