It's senseless this shut down...It may ruin credit for a few thousand people..But in real respective The Senate and The President could end it now. But It's their bargaining chip on the shoulders of regular people who have children to feed and support. Tell your kids no money.

This guy here is a genius i am a democrat but he has beat us 4 yrs every step of the way..maybe why we need term limits or new blood in congress

Here's an idea senatemajldr : Pass the House bill and force Trump's hand. The way the GOP has folded to that amoral, orange traitor is beyond disappointing.

McConnell’s Alzheimer’s is getting worse with each day Has “no particular role” to end shutdown, so workers can get their pay. Grassley, Shelby, system is a failure, voters are tired of their gimmicks, $ abuses, constitutional crisis, patriarchal misogyny, time for term limits.

senatemajldr What work are you doing on behalf of federal workers who can’t sleep tonight for worrying about how they are going to pay their bills this month? Based on what you’ve been saying, you’re sitting somewhere in a corner waiting for Trump to tell you what to do

Everyone wasting time on deal, they talk with presenters at Faux News and convince them, if they convince everything will be back to normal...

Call it what it is. A TrumpShutdown.

sure

That picture: McConnell looks Death in the eye. Death laughs and says he has to finish his term first.

MitchShutdown TrumpShutdown

Oh Mitch knows he's in trouble......life sucks for him.

U.S. Senate Leader Mitch McConnell finally tracked down in London, where's he been ignoring the Brexit deal.

The house just passed it. The senate passed it two weeks ago before Trump got upset that Anne Coulter called him a wimp. The deal exists. Should be looking at how the GOP can get the president to actually listen to reason rather than a handful of right wing commentators

I have an idea - pass the bill sent over by the House that was passed unanimously a couple weeks ago and then that majority can override Trump’s veto - toddler learns a lesson and TrumpShutDown ends.

Aren't they going to be happy Monday when they've hammered out an agreement all weekend and Trump looks it and goes 'NO! NO, NO, NO! I WANT 5 BEEEEELION DOLLARS OR I WILL CONTINUE TO HOLD THE FEDERAL WORKERS HOSTAGE! YOU HEAR ME? 5! BEEEEEELION! DOLLARS!'

You spineless weasel! You passed a deal last week! Now that you don’t control the House you want to see what you can work out? I’m sick of your party politics. Federal employees don’t have enough money to feed their families and you want to see what you can work out huh.

You guys already had a deal and voted on it unanimously. It was trump that changed his mind and would not sign it. Staffers won’t be able to do any good unless trump agrees to sign, which he won’t unless he gets his wall...and even then, he might change his mind again

cindymccain GovMikeHuckabee MittRomney EricGreitens LOL Better wipe Israel off from world map IDF

Guess is daca for wall funding

GOP will fold like a deck of cards. Paychecks missed, bills going late and somehow realDonaldTrump thinks those affected support a wall in the desert. ToneDeaf

Once again, McConnell 'forgets' that he works for the People, not POTUS.

Mcconnells neck looks like Betty Whites vagina.

Republican, Democratic measures to end shutdown fail in SenateNeither President Trump's proposal nor a Democratic measure to reopen the government cleared the 60-vote hurdle needed to advance to a final vote. House-Democratic proposal to reopen the government until Feb. 8 fails in Senate by 52-44 vote. Both President Trump's proposal and the House-passed Democratic proposal have failed to meet the 60 votes needed to pass. Ask parents money and go to food banks... Is that the answer for 800.000 fellow Americans? Is that the USA in the early stages of the 21st century? Where is the president of all Americans, as he said in his inauguration? Where are the dreams? SHAME ON YOU SENATORS
