- In the second-longest shutdown in US government history, Donald Trump continues to demand more than $5bn for a border wall. Congress is in deadlock, and some 800,000 federal employees have been sent home or are working without pay. The president has threatened that the shutdown could last ‘months or even years’. Here’s what that might mean

I wonder if Trump ever said, "MINE" and pulled a toy out of his friends hand when he was a kid?
Are you implying he had friends?
Donald trump and friend dont mix
Arthur Jackson
He most likely did 😂
Arthur Jackson i dont get it with Nancy does she want a wall or barrier.
@@anjelmarquez7784 , she wants more than just a wall, she wants Border Security as well, consisting of High Tech Advanced Security methods such as Night Vision Cameras, Motion and Heat Detectors, Drones, and hiring more Border Control Agents to protrol the Border. Simple.
Why can't Trump paid for it out if his pocket.. he wants it
April Sloan because it’s illegal
What about taking it out of our defense budget... the president doesn’t make as much as you’d expect.
He need to be replace.. family who needs benefit.. instead of a stupid wall 😑
The american people want it. At least the ones who voted for him.
@@jordanreynolds3524 The one's who voted for him are in the minority of the American people, though. Most people voted against the wall.
I thought mexico was going to pay for the wall.
You've been lied to.
Supposedly they are paying half.
Oh, that's going to take place after it's built and US taxpayers pay for it. After all, Trump said so. Oh wait! So much for Mexico paying for it.
Well we all know who this idiot voted for 👆
freddy trinidad and they are gonna pay for it.
Take that $5 billion from the $700 billion military budget.
seems fair
he should, but its technically not legal, that is something Obama might do. In the end the government is shut down and that is all that matters.
Michael Mantion I rather have him do this way instead asking an extra 5 billion of taxpayer dollars (including our taxes).
well the key is the government is shut down. that is the objective. the wall is nice but not as important as a long term government shut down.
@Aviato Simple deflection, it's all they know how to do. If it ain't Obama it's "duhhh what about the emails?"
And the saddest part of this is the fact that republicans (paid/not paid) will still stand behind him. Damn shame!
Lol not true at all
Most Republicans are in it for the money.
Well yea because the shutdown isn't his fault, he attempted to compromise with irrational democrats. His original plan was to build a $25 billion wall, democrats didn't like it, he lowered it to $5 billion!
So we live in mad max now
I got Ziggy with me
Pretty much
Ignacio Sanchez she get jiggy with me
Just ike my sister. Screaming until she gets what she wants
National emergency!RLLY?! Grow up and drop the whole wall thing before you destroy what little respect this country still has!!
So we're all not getting paid 😃
So no wages for millions of public sector workers.
I betcha ole farty pants will be scoffing on fresh meat and vegetables whilst millions begin to starve.
I'll leave this here.....Oswald dropped it.
6.5 mm Carcano rifle
I hope ALL TRUMP SUPPORTERS go through the shutdown!!! But for the people who did not vote for trump should not have to go through the shutdown.
Right so instead of having compassion on all the people who probably realize, at this point, that they made a huge lapse in judgement, you just want to have them and their children suffer? How about show them why they shouldn't give him a second term?
Well you can’t always get your way
Agree
EXACTLY!
Im glad to see republican trump supporters suffering. they deserve it.
Brendan Philbrick no, if you make mistakes then you pay for the consequences
He makes me physically ill.
Who else came here because of midnight the deadline of government shutdown?
Anyone else preparing for the apocalypse
Yes it coming super fast
It is possible after all!!! Or hunger games!!
What alot of people are missing about this is very important. And i am nit trying to scare anyone. Just stating facts. If this continues for too long we will end up in nationwide martial law. Which is NOT what we want. Unless your idea of freedom is to be controled and told when and where you can do or go. Not to mention travel of any sorts will stop and curfews will start immediately. Thats not even bringing into account food stoppage and cashflow halt. Have a great day
yetisuncle How many Alex Jones shoes did you watch before watching this? 🙃
Martial Law?
@@56jaycam most people are going to die
I agree with you and I believe that's the plan
Socrates words keep going through my head. We are going to end up with a damn dictator! He will shut it all down and rule alone.
I like the micro-expression of Trump's buddy at 1:35 - scratching his head as he hears "national emergency" to signify "This guy is loose in the head". Trump truly is on his own at that bottom criteria of the intelligence quotient.
This is really fucked up. I'm so sorry that America is going through this ♥️
I just think he's unqualified tbh lol. He has bad people skills. It's more professional and polite to start a discussion between governments (USA n Mexico) instead of dictating. What he is doing effects American people the most and doesn't help boarder control at all as people are probably still illegally getting into America. Ugh it's stupid af.
IMPEACH TRUMP! IMPEACH TRUMP! IMPEACH TRUMP!
Yawn we impeached Clinton he only became more popular.
moron above /\
HUMANS need not to apply ⚘
TH-cam ⚡👽⚡
Trump has no committed any impeachable crimes
@@billbradleymusic takes one to know one
with anualy military budged you could build 160x walls for 5bil/each.
Can't get arrested if there's no government 🤔😂
The problem is not the us gov shut down. The problem is to much us gov. Smaller us gov means shut down wouldn't have as large of a negative effect to the people
Eating a big fat meal not realising the national workers are struggling for daily needs. This is not your private home or private company.
Noo wall because your going to waste money them more millions will have no job it's stupid for a wall!!!! Who spends 5 billion dollars on a wall realllyyyy really just wow there will be a great depression again if he keeps building this wall another great depression
Military budget says hi.
This wall idea is great...assuming humans never invent air or sea travel. Oh wait. How is this worth holding the livelihood of so many people hostage?
The great wall of USA.
Which is worse? A goverment shutdown or a temporary Six flags shutdown until April? How am I supposed to get subscribers until Six Flags opens back up?
Sacrifices need to be made. I think he's doing the right thing. Hope he eliminates EBT as well. Sick of paying for lazy people. I've seen people that use them and get into a vehicle worth twice as much as mine. Loading up all there groceries when I work for my food and don't get half of what they got in bags. Sick of free loaders I'm paying for.
If you don't mind question, What's EBT?
Ebt stands for electronic benefits. "Poor" people get it from the gov't to pay for food. I get them and I work and pay taxes like everyone else. Educate yourself.
@@charnelwelch9997
There's a lot of abbreviations for the word of EBT, in which is why I asked the question. This is how education works in that way, anyway.
Thanks for answering my question.
@@charnelwelch9997 obviously you haven't educated yourself well enough to depend on yourself to feed yourself. So you depend on others to stuff your face. I would like to see how people like yourself would survive if the government completely crashed and you had to fend for yourself. Wouldn't give you a month...
id like to say that soon you will see the true point in all of this.... little do you recognize that loss of EBT is going to drastically change YOUR future as well.... good luck and may god wake you from your VERY DEEP SLUMBER
😱 @1:00 🤣🤣😂🤣😂 nice haircut dude👍
if the wall so great, so useful, trump's family should invest it, they are rich anyway. just ask the US government pay the rent. but, if the wall did not work, any illegal immigrant cross the wall, trump pay the fine. at the end, trump has his wall and take the responsibilities for ever, government keep working, illegal immigrant blocked out, everone's happy. how about that? just my thought
So one man in power has shutdown the government and an entire parliament is allowing him to do that and not standing up against it although its making it citizens suffer , and you they call themselves the most democratic and free country in the world.
Feel sad for the people 😓😓
People think about it america ist the way it was theres no freedom no peace its always anger someone trying to destroy someone we need to stop anger towards someone and start forgiving
Wait so shuting down security as a whole is more worse right???? How is this protecting the country!
They need to start a investigators to investigateincome tax small business es in home......
Fraud
Never once did I see an answer as to what government shut down means. Aside from government servants not working.
I don’t believe one man has the right to tell a man what he can or cannot do but as a society we must know that our fellow government is not doing its jobs especially since it’s shut down.. after all we are the people living behind the scenes everyday working as a unit.. we all go to work together and leave together like a neighbor.. I believe it’s our time to start a movement around the world especially since we have the ability to communicate using such a powerful source that’s ever been brought upon us. we can communicate in groups or with each other causing a movement online.! Let our fellow neighbor know he’s not in the right we must do this for a better social working encore for one another while we are still on this planet earth together.. it’s sad to see people leaving there homeland bc it’s a stressful niche that can simply be overwhelmed by how we are we don’t have to fight we’ve never had to fight people always think we have to fight these people.. we don’t.
Im not american. But i was so shocked that the people voted for trump i mean i was so disappointed. I thought Americans knew better
MiMi Tutorials that because everyone got fool by this ridiculous clown said mexico will pay for the wall :D
I don't understand how they don't pay people?
How does the court of justice not have time for the president, ridiculous.
I understand the importance of the wall, but this is taking it WAY too far
At least this mentioned the working poor briefly opposed to how much they have been ignored in the recent news coverage
the tremendous problem is you Donald Trump
I disagree... The biggest problem is the people who live in America..
+La_ well you're sadly mistaken he needs to sign the stupid papers in order to pay the federal workers and he doesn't care
Well he wouldnt have been the one signing it if Americans didnt put him up there...
+La_ it's too late he's in power now he's going to be a ruthless dictator
I don't get it for 2 things... Don't they have something called . . .. .plains? And also do we still get our w2 form? Aka taxes
And the world tumbled into chaos, fear, and destruction amongst itself.
It doesn’t mean anything. We the people taxpayer have to many government employees. We’re taxed enough and it’s time to thin these individuals out along with the unions. Our tax dollars make their employment possible!
This all has nothing to do with a wall . Wakey wakey
Why is the wall a negative? There is money for it if a budget is balance out for it... so money isn't really an issue. So why is it a negative?
Work without pay? Sounds like a slavery
Compare the 5b to the bank bailouts of '08. Smh at Pres and Dems.
Come on people it doesn't take rocket science to see this is wrong, stand up as the proud Americans that we are!
In my opinion 5 billion dollars for a stupid wall is Not worth it. 5 billion dollars could do sooo much for this country.
For example?
They have trillions in budget why not just spare 5bn? It ain't much tbh compared to the annual budget.
So fucked up world were living in.😠😡🌎
California needs to break away the USA..we need to be our own country.
Use your saving like you don’t get paid 100k a year 🤣🤣🤣
This better not last long
I love it how they show a clip of trash on the floor and " no on to pick it up" hahahaha! I look at the streets of New York and think the same thing!
What will happen to schools?
Trump Dies in Fortnite to Desperado Skin
* “GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN UNTIL THIS MEXICAN’S ACCOUNT IS DELETED” *
My friendship shut down. Maybe world peace will not.
He wants a chunk of wall smh. Sounds like something my child would say
I would quit wtf
So you don't have a job?
"We'll create jobs for Americans!" We won't pay them though.
This is sad to see!
its a little bit funny too
It means NWO!
No we need the wall
Please can I get an answer for my question here. Is US government still showdown?
just let him do his job... he knows what he is doing.
People will loose their homes
Truly in the last days
He just took you hostage like a bank robber to get his money why is this legal?
Yall all blaming this on the trump voters what about the majority of you americans who didnt even vote in the first place.
Ahm, sorry. I'm just curious and I'm not from the US. What is the billion dollar wall for? My customers are talking about the shut down and I want to know more about it.
Somebody is cotrolling me !!!!!!
I wonder if the presidents personal bodyguards would risk their lives for him if they had to do it for nothing.
Y’all voted for him. Lmao
You had one job...
He promised the wall and built chunks of it
You elected him. He is doing what he thinks is best. He has done a lot of good the public does not even know about. The poor are used to it, the rich will fell the pain but change must come. No matter how it is achieved. Equilibrium must be established.
Good on him
Why can't they just impeach him.. It's so unfair to everyone who needs a paying job. It is also unfair to everyone else. This is stupid crazy, and I'm just waiting for it to happen! It isn't because I disrespect Donald Trump. It's more because he is disrespecting our opinions, and whats clearly in front of him.
The end of america to bad really but im safe in the netherlands thats so far out of debt it would be hard to go into debt
Damn I better move to Mexico lol
Sealed
September 21, 2020 and here we go again ☹️ another possible shutdown
Which is why I bought 50% of the snack aisle and 75% of the game aisle
Thanks walmart
i play fortnite should have brought my son!
i play fortnite oh wait, did you pay? I hope not, can’t get arrested if there’s no gov’t 😃
Wow he said Trump pounded the table such liars.
"Im not allowed to work during the Govt. shutdown"
Yes you are allowed to work, you can always find odd jobs or ways to make money. If you are in financial trouble because you don't get a paycheck for a few weeks then that is your fault for not planning ahead and making sure you have sufficient savings. What if you lost your job all together? There are homeless people who manage to make a considerable amount of money because they go out and find ways to make money.
It really funny that your all complaining about no government but here in northern Ireland we have had no government for 3 years
Wish i knew more
But when Obama does it we're all chill about it
Funny how people want him out now😂 but when people said don't vote for him they said stfu
wow, government employee's find out how real Americans live! thank you Donnie!
government employee are real Americans... Why would yall hire fake Americans to work for your government? are you crazy?
Yay less traffic on the beltway!
I’m not really into politics or anything (so don’t come for me if I get anything wrong) but what happens when people start starving? I mean I know that lots of people rely on food stamps to eat. Trump is supposedly a billionaire and the president so he won’t have a problem but what about the poor/low income families? In my opinion trump is being irrational and childish. He should know by now that you can’t just throw a fit every time you don’t get what you want! I know the wall could be a good thing for many neighborhoods next to the border but I don’t think that this is the right way to get the money! Maybe he should take some money from the 700 billion dollar military budget. Unless he wants the Great Depression Part II he should stop the shut down
Please Americans re-elect Trump for 2020. He is doing a great job bringing down the US empire.
am I the only one in here who likes Trump?
I mean right now, you probably are.
Stock up on canned foods.
Why
2Muchpjp because a scarcity of food is about to happen. A famine.
Lol, stop living off the government and you don’t have to worry about it :)
Build that wall, it has been promised since day one.
It's just racism 😐
Do the wall
