You had your question answered, you just didn't like the answer. Very typical of Trump-haters. No one person, or even one Party is to blame for the mess that is the current American Government, and nobody who didn't get paid for two weeks is "suffering". If they are out of money, it is because they either live over their heads, budget poorly or not at all, or both. If you want to see suffering, there are plenty of places on this Planet you can go, but the USA is NOT one of them.

See, typical Trump *** kisser response. Just ignore yet another one of his many lies, and blame everyone else. Its been 2 weeks so far, but do you see an end in sight? I don't. Maybe "suffering" is the wrong word. They are certainly experiencing some kind of hardship. I don't live over my head, or budget poorly, but if my family had to go several weeks without my paycheck, we would find it a little difficult. Maybe you're different. Regardless of whether those people budget poorly or live above their means, it doesn't matter. They are still going without a paycheck through no fault of their own.

As I have said many times, I do not hate Donald Trump. I hate his lying. I hate the way he has made the office of the POTUS a laughing stock (in my opinion) and I hate the way he doesn't seem to care about anyone by himself, but I don't hate him.

so, nobody has really addressed my main point when I started this thread. Of course the Trump supporters rush to blame the democrats for "not compromising", bu my point was this.
Trump promised to build a wall.
He promised Mexico would pay for said wall.
Now that he can't get Mexico to pay, thousands of Americans are suffering because he wants us to pay.

WRONG AGAIN!

We were promised that wall back in 2006 and we were willing and expecting to pay for it.

No6thing has changed except Mexico is paying for the wall because of the money we are making on a new and better trade deal.

LOL who is “we?” The trade deal doesn’t fund the government. Even if we say it is significantly different from NAFTA (it isn’t), that isn’t money that’s available to fund public projects.

"Members of "totalistic" cults—those that consider their ideology the one true path—share four key characteristics. They 1) espouse an all-encompassing belief system; 2) exhibit excessive devotion to the leader; 3) avoid criticism of the group and its leader; and 4) feel disdain for non-members. That all sounds unnervingly familiar."
