Trump just posted this on Instagram. But what was that thing he did in the press room? It wasn't a press conference because at a press conference the press gets to ask questions. This is the first time Trump has appeared in the press room at the podium. This was nothing less than a malignant narcissist in need of attention and focus on himself. He just couldn't take it that Nancy Pelosi got all the attention this afternoon with all the newly sworn in Democratic House of Representatives. This is the first time in Trump's presidency that he's going to be getting some serious resistance because he doesn't control the House anymore.
He had the burning need to get out in front of the cameras to feed his ego. The three Matt Whitaker doppelgangers behind him were Border Guards I assume, I didn't watch it all. He bragged about all the emails and tweets in support of his wall. Donald Trump has made a fatal error, he has made himself the wall. He's hostage to the problem he created. He hung his presidency on this one thing, the wall.
He's not backing down and he'll keep the government shut down and that's going to seriously hurt him in 2020.

Both sides are putting a ridiculous amount of importance on whether or not the Wall gets built. In the end it a wall isn’t going to make much of a positive OR negative impact on the country. Both sides should be wanting to trade it for something that actually matters rather than shutting down the government over it.

Democrats tried that a year ago. Offered them much more than the $5 billion Trump wants this time. The far right wing in the House put the kibosh on it that time. This time that wing is muzzled -- as far as official power goes.
So perhaps Democrats will give it another go. I bet they're prioritizing their wish list items to see how much they can get from Trump if they toss him a few billion for the wall.

...and that is how politics works.
Give a little and get a little.
You are so right.
Good point, though I think that legislation passed the House but was shot down by the Senate. It gave something like $20B in exchange for DACA protections.
It wasn't a press conference. It was a press briefing. They got briefed.
It is possible to despise Trump and still want "The Wall".
...because once it is built, it will stay, and it was one of Trump's biggest campaign promises.

Didn't the Dems offer full funding in exchange for DACA way back? This isn't a "both sides" issue. It's a problem of the GOP yet again taking hostages and issuing demands.
Trump was sent to town in part to burn down the administrative state, every day that the government stays partly closed is a day towards success of the mission, something that the FAILED INTELLIGENTSIA! need to keep in mind as they refuse to negotiate and play fair.
**** 2020, I said way back in 2015 that he was only interested in one term anyways.

It is a required thing because the government has become abusive and has no interest in being better, I was saying this long before Trump came along, in fact I was saying it long before almost anyone else was. As one of the hyper educated I tend to lead, not follow.You seem to think that 'burning down the administrative state' is a good thing, that's how brainwashed you are. The original term coined by Steve Bannon is; "deconstruction of the administrative state". What that meant is that the Republicans planned too, among other things, rescind regulates on fossil fuel emissions from energy plants. His plan also withdrew a moratorium on coal mining on US lands. More broadly, it urged federal agencies to "appropriately suspend, revise, or rescind those that unduly burden the development of domestic energy resources." In other words, he gave a green light to those specific companies that are owned by his billionaire buddies, those specific companies that will destroy the ecology for profit.
Deconstruction of the administrate state made each and every one of us a customer, not a citizen. The creation of an executive office dedicated to applying private sector standards to government. The "White House Office of American Innovation" is run by Trump's son-in-law and trusted adviser, Jared Kushner. "Our hope," Kushner told the Washington Post, "is that we can achieve successes and efficiencies for our customers, who are the citizens."
In a straightforward way, it simply refers to the group of federal agencies tasked with carrying out the executive branch’s constitutional duty to execute the laws passed by Congress. Such agencies have existed for as long as our Republic, of course, but they have multiplied and grown over the centuries. Think of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Federal Communications Commission, the Food and Drug Administration, or the Environmental Protection Agency, they were empowered by Congress to formulate federal rules and regulations that carry the force of law. These agencies are what Trump has endeavored to destroy or usurp power from.

That's not even half-logical thinking. To say that that the government has no interest in being better. What about an administration that just blew up the national debt by TWO-TRILLION DOLLARS in the 2 years he's been in office. Do you, as one of the 'hyper-educated' Trump supporters, feel happy about the fact that your great-grandchildren will be left with this burden?
That is not the point, the point is to defund our federal government, because if it has no money it has less ability to interfere in our lives, as it has long demanded to do.
I do not approve, but understanding what is going on is critical.
We have been stealing from the kids/grandkids/unborn for a generation, we boomers were never interested in paying our own way, nor do we have any moral problems with conducting generational warfare.
Dont blame that on Trump.
