Yes, once again Q is missing.  The Democrats don’t seem be interested in open the government and the reason being is the Democrats won’t give an inch, as they see that giving into the President and his base would be a victory for the President, and they can’t give him those accolades, he’ll be damned. They have hampered every step, with cries for impeachment over the slightest misstep they think he might make, you saw their “oh we got him this time”, over the Buzzfeed fiasco, the only thing they have remaining in their quiver is obstructing him at every turn in this shutdown.  In order to take Trump down they would sooner keep Americans unpaid than to admit to being wrong on the side of correcting a wrong or boardering our southern demarcation line. I lay this solely at the feet of a power hungry Prancy Pelosi, She watched a corrupt Sen.Harry Reid, deny Republicans even lied about the Mitt Romney, just to get his way, and ushered in midnight voted for an illegal ACA. Democrats are evil, no wonder people have turned evil in this country, leadership in this country teaches it. Just my .02@
