  1. Consider the following: a. Trump declares a 'national emergency' at our borders. b. So, Trump keeps part of the government shut down: 1. The Coast Guard is risking their lives to protect this nation from harm from our coasts, WITHOUT PAY. 2. The TSA is trying to keep the flying public safe, WITHOUT PAY. 3. The IRS is shut down during tax season, IRS who helps the government collect taxes to pay for the government. And those who are working at the IRS are doing so WITHOUT PAY. c. If this were a 'true national emergency' then why aren't the National Guards being deployed from around this nation to help guard this nation? Why do we have the National Guard if they aren't being utilized to guard this nation? d. The case to have an actual border concrete wall, or even a steel fence, from sea to sea at our southern border is idiotic based upon the geography of the land. We have electronic borders and natural borders to help protect those areas. Now, as I understand it to be, there is already about 650 - 700 miles of actual border 'wall' already in place where needed. Now also, I have recently learned that some of that 'wall' is only small automobile type deterents and people can simply pass through. So, maybe replace those small barriers with larger 'people proof' barriers. e. BUT, apparently some of the terrible people that Trump is claiming is coming to harm the USA, are NOT coming through the southern border illegally. They are being found at airports and are those who enter this nation legally who then overstay their visas. So, this whole border wall thing and government shutdown is not really solving the real issue anyway. (And of course, those who are coming through at airports, we now have the TSA working WITHOUT PAY, to try to keep us safe, of whom apparently, there is a bad case of the 'blue flu' going around at the airports that are affecting the TSA, so we are less safe there as a nation, where some of the real problem truly is.) f. And consider also: Trump and Trump alone basically shut down the government, the shut down occurring even BEFORE the Democrats took over Congress. "IF" Trump is still having his taxes audited by the IRS, an audit being an investigation, and a Federal investigation since it's the IRS, by Trump shutting down the IRS, is Trump obstructing justice and thereby might be committing an impeachable offense? Especially since the government didn't really need to be shut down in the first place.
