Trump is currently extolling the virtues of walls.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm sorry, "smart walls."
Walls that are made of steel, see-through, and somehow have drones.
Washington Post has an article about the 3-week government opening deal. [link]
Such a blunder sometimes it makes me wonder why I even bring the thunder
(Why she even brings the thunder)
He's so clearly just going on and on, hoping to make it look like he's being super tough even though he's having to cave on the wall. Which was never intended to be a concrete wall from sea to shining sea. Because there are natural borders that have been there for millions of years.
I'm going to guess that the government will quietly stay open in three weeks and we'll move along.
I imagine some businesspeople will come down hard on That Man if he tries to shut it down again. Especially with tax season ramping up.
Hmmm, conjecture he is only doing this 3 week thing so he can give his precious SOTU address.
I think as soon as the airports in NYC shut down he was royally fucked.
But also, of course he also wants to deliver the SOTU from the House, and he knew he had to re-open the government to do that.
I hate him so much.
