US Government to shut down in less than an hour, would be first single-party shutdown ever

They seriously need to get Term Limits for ALL those idiots in Office. They seem to forget: They are supposed to represent ALL AMERICANS. Not just the Rich, Wealthy, or their own damn Bank Accounts (and Offshore Bank Accounts)

I thought the same under Bush and it's stunning how soon people forget.

True... But like I said, as much as I disliked Bush and thought he was an idiot.. I still think he was doing what he Honestly thought was good for the country. I'd rather have someone like that rather than trump that just wants money.

Hell.. NIXON has done more for the country than Trump has.

While I certainly don't disagree, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

You all act like Trump is Hitler!!! Trump is a class act and would stand up for this country when none of our elected officails would. He is single handidly taking on the globalists and winning all the while MAGA!
I can finally say Trump is my president :D
He's not Hitler, but to be fair he did reject a bipartisan budget that wouldve stopped this fiasco.

Everyone that is against Trump is a communist... PERIOD!
If you cannot stand with your potus , you do not love this country and need to leave and let Trump and the rest of us Americans MAGA!
Dude wtf? This is the practically the same thing Maduro says - "everyone that stands against the venezuelan president is a fascist". This is not how America works, you know. America is about working together, not hating those who disagree with you.

Nah, the anti-christ is supposed to be smart and charismatic. The most I give Trump is charismatic, but he's done more damage through sheer stupidity than on purpose.

The Anti-Christ, again mimicking Jesus sovereignty, will rule for 42 months over the earth. For three and a half years he “was given authority to continue [literally “make war”] for forty-two months” (Rev 13:5). In fact the Anti-Christ “was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation“ (Rev 13:7). Christians know who actually reigns supreme for Jesus is Lord of all and has been given all authority in heaven and on earth. The Anti-Christ thinks he has power but he is given only as much power as God allows him to have. All this mans power is within the sovereign plan of God as God can even use evil for good.

Whoever rules the world’s goods rules the unsaved world. This man will have “forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name“ (Rev 13:16-17). When people start getting hungry, they will do almost anything to keep from starving. Even submit to an ungodly ruler. He causes everyone to receive a mark so that they can’t even buy food or any goods at all unless they have his mark upon them. This is also mimicking the sovereign God who gives to all, great and small, the sustenance to survive. The Anti-Christ makes everyone receive his mark but this mark comes with a great price.

Daniel 11:31 mentions this abomination of desolation as his “armed forces will rise up to desecrate the temple fortress and will abolish the daily sacrifice. Then they will set up the abomination that causes desolation.” The “daily sacrifice is abolished“ (Dan 12:11). He can not be trusted because “He will invade the kingdom when its people feel secure, and he will seize it through intrigue. Then an overwhelming army will be swept away before him; both it and a prince of the covenant will be destroyed. After coming to an agreement with him, he will act deceitfully, and with only a few people he will rise to power. When the richest provinces feel secure, he will invade them and will achieve what neither his fathers nor his forefathers did. He will distribute plunder, loot and wealth among his followers. He will plot the overthrow of fortresses-but only for a time“ (Dan 11:21-24). He is a liar and a thief of thieves. He makes an agreement and promises peace but then breaks his promise and deceives many.

Dude wtf? This is the practically the same thing Maduro says - "everyone that stands against the venezuelan president is a fascist". This is not how America works, you know. America is about working together, not hating those who disagree with you.

Again.. I don't think he evens know what communism is.

there goes people flipping out again with the "them" vs "us" bs scenerio. IF you think that re-pubes or demonrats actually care about anyone of you regardless of your affiliation than you've been drinking too much kool-aid and brainwashed by cnn/fox or whatever shit show ya watch. the OP is so biased that it's rediculous. yes trump is a pos just like all the presidents we've had in the past and ALL politicians lie just like the media. both sides aka lefties and righties need to unite instead of letting the media, hollywood, people in music and groups tell us what to do, to be outraged over nothing, to keep us divided. we didn't divide ourselves from our fellow americans back when obama was president and stirring the pot just as much as trump is now. so why have division now and not for those 8 years of obama or during bushes 8 years?

Regardless of the political affiliation we're a part of, we can all agree that there are pretty damn idiotic people on both parties, and the White House is in need of a serious purge right about now. Like, as in, they being replaced by people who know what the hell they're doing and actually benefit the people of the US? Days like this I absolutely despise the government. Oh and I know it hasn't been brought up, but there are some serious issues that need to be addressed, but the government is too uncaring and stupid to even focus on that, they only care to line their pockets with gold, not the people.

Also, I do have an opinion on sanctuary cities, and why I think they're stupid and how those who enable such a thing should be punished for violating federal laws, but I'll save that for another time.

"Oh, you want to protect people who entered here illegally by suing the government for violating the rights of the same people who came here illegally, despite the fact that protecting illegals from deportation for their violating the law? Okay". Damned idiots who run those sanctuary cities, you're part of the problem. Illegal is illegal. No wonder our government is jacked up.

Well, there is a reason that Satan probably has a higher approval rating than Congress. I mean, at least Satan got things done, sure he had issues and all. :P

Hate to break it to you, but I'm unable to make that promise, this is a thread and I can share my opinions. Don't tell me you actually defend the concept of sanctuary cities, you know full well the issues and the fact cities are trying to sue politicians because they've been called out on their illegalities. It's my opinion and not yours, so really, you're more than welcome to add me on ignore. *Shrug*

Illegal is illegal, government officials seemingly never agree on anything, so yeah. Same goes with some of the members on here, like you and I. C'est la vie.

You're god damn right I do, because I'm not afraid of people that want to live in this country instead of where they came from. Stop being so afraid, help people... maybe the world would be a better place if there weren't so many fucking unsympathetic cowards in it. Your "opinion" is that people don't deserve a chance for a better life, which is the exact opposite of the founding principals that made this country great.

It's why there is an us vs them schism in this country... One side wants support nets and help for people fundamentally worse off... the other only stands for "I got mine, fuck you" so yeah... long live sanctuary cities because this country was a sanctuary country not so long ago.
