Point? You seem to be inferring McConnell should allow a floor vote about the shutdown?

Are you sure you want to argue for democracy as a Republican? It would probably be smarter to fall back to "The U.S. is a republic not a democracy" given all the polling info we have.

Given what McConnell and Trump are doing to the Senate (i.e. stopping anything from reaching the floor that Trump does not approve,) you are absolutely the worst person to point out Constitutionality.

This thread feels like it should be addressed to MConnell who will not allow all of our senators to vote and represent us.

It also doesn’t say “I the president” and since the majority of people don’t want to pay for the wall, then no wall.

And the majority of the people support Pelosi and oppose Trump and his wall.


Now, who again needs to re-read the preamble of the Constitution ?

And you would do well to familiarize yourself with article 1 of the Constitution.
