Why does this white guy start to talk like an afro-american when he gets angry? @ 0:36 - 0:41

And did this all happen just because a fucking Trump T-Shirt?
That would be very immature and unprofessional by the cashier.
I saw cashiers and business owners reacting far more professional when customers with FAR MORE provocative stuff came into their stores, including some guy with a huge "Meine Ehre heißt Treue" tattoo on his arm and another guy with the blood drop cross on the back of his hand next to the letters K K K.
First I wanna apologize I keep intervening in your domestic debate, although it occassionally does get the international flavor, but your domestic problems, how can I put it, well they actually ain't all that domestic. Your... demesne, it spans the globe it seems, being the Super-Power (Woa), the almighty All-Seeing Eye, ever watchful, everyone's beloved big brother, and those domestic problems tend Not to remain domestic for too long, they export themselves and pretty soon become everybody's darling, (whether everybody like it or not). Not to mention of course that your great country also happens to be something of a beacon, the modern civilized world's Mecca, don't even know if I'm allowed to use the term, am I?

I'm really genuinely interested in this debate, this conversation between... Native Americans regarding their Supreme Lord Ichimonji... er... I mean Mr President Donald J. Trump, this whole endeavor proves to be very educational, in an amusing way too, it's kinda like watching porn, I mean you don't actually get laid, but it kinda... broadens your horizons, so to speak.

Who was that great philosopher who said that with great power comes great responsibility blah blah, steaming pile of dung, I think it was Roger Waters, what a boring sod!

Anyhow, pay no heed to me, I'm just the King's Fool, me... I'm an entertainer, are you not entertained, ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAiNED?

- Got the gist Lieutenant? (pronounced: Lef-tenant)
- Aye Sir, Paris when it sizzles!



EDIT: Silly me, Native Americans are actually... Indians, and that boring sod didn't say that, he said something about a... mother that takes you under her wing, keeps you safe and warm n all that steaming pile of dung...

I hope the Democrats never cave and refuse to fund the wall. After 6-12 months, the alleged "government shutdown" will just be a joke, since 99.99% of people will be unaffected.

Hopefully a smaller government becomes the new normal.

Let's see what this really means.

From CNN article
"
For the 380,000 federal employees on furlough and the other 420,000 working without pay, this means it's time to start making plans for how to pay January bills without the promise of their next paycheck as part of the government remains shutdown.


"
The Coast Guard is the only military branch that isn't paid during the government shutdown; they technically are part of the Department of Homeland Security.


"
While some federal agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency and Smithsonian museums were able to use other funds to remain open for the first week of the shutdown, as the shutdown enters week two, those funds have dried up.

https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/28/politics/shutdown-second-week/index.html

The Federal Judiciary will close down if the shut down extends past 3 weeks.

The IRS and National Parks that could see some pauses or breaks in service.

National Parks will likely be impacted. Check specific parks before planning any trips.

IRS services will be impacted. If extends long enough then tax return processing and refunds could be impacted.

If the outage lasted for months then even those working in essential services would likely quit and find new jobs. So those services would suffer.

Of course the biggest impact would be to the 700,000 families that no longer collect their paychecks. Such an extended outage like Khoranth is hoping for would financially devastate these families. Many would likely be forced to quit and find new jobs which would make it difficult to reconstitute the 25% of the government that had been closed down for so long.

What has happened in the past on shorter outages is the back pay was given to both groups, those on furlough as well as those that were forced to work without pay. These government shutdowns in the past ended up costing us money not saving money.

Nothing good is likely to come from an extended shutdown like what Khoranth is hoping for. It is really Trump like thinking to even say such a thing.

Five days from now, the investigations begin. Glorious.

If Trump truly cared about his citizens (and federal employees), then he'd just give up on his wall. It's fairly obvious that democrats can and will just wait until they are the majority before engaging discussions. Trump should realize that and just move on without penalizing all those federal workers that are caught in the crossfire.

The fact that he doesn't realize this show that he only care about himself and winning at any cost, including the well-being of the very people he's supposed to represent.

His racists would drop him like a hot potato if he did the right thing :)
If Democrats truly cared about their citizens, they wouldn't block border security in the Senate. They know if Trump gets his wall he'll win in 2020, so they're blocking it and putting their citizens in danger. They only care about not losing in 2020. And non-citizens, it seems.
