To me if another shut down happens just so he can do a sotu address that will be even worse politically.
So give the federal workers back pay and 1 pay period of actual work. Then shut it down again.
Trump throwing them a bone to shut them up for awhile.
That's exactly what is. Crumbs to quiet the masses
Agreed, but this president has a myopic vision of how things work.

Hopefully he catches a charge in that time.
I doubt it.. This whole ordeal was a pure L for trump.... And it was given to him largely by a womanSo in 2 weeks we get to do this all over again
and you know he don't like that shyt... He's not going to want no more smoke with Nancy on this and that's why you see him alluding to declaring a national emergency which will likely be shut down by courts... Just L's all around for the MAGA Gang today

Politics is an EXCHANGE!!!
No he does not have right to extort Congress for funding a Border Wall. Congress controls the budget.
The Senate voted on giving money for the wall and it FAILED.
The Wall ain't happening.
Senate rejects two measures to end shutdown
Senate rejects two measures to end shutdown
Senate Republicans blocked a stopgap measure to end the partial shutdown on Thursday, the second of two failed efforts to end the longest government shutdown in U.S. history.
Senators voted 52-44 on the legislation, falling short of the 60 votes needed to defeat a filibuster.
GOP Sens. Lamar Alexander (Tenn.), Susan Collins (Maine), Cory Gardner(Colo.), Johnny Isakson (Ga.), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) and Mitt Romney(Utah) broke rank and voted to advance the stopgap bill, which would have reopened the quarter of the government currently shuttered and funded it through Feb. 8.
The vote came after the Senate also rejected a White House–backed proposal on Thursday that would have exchanged reopening the government for $5.7 billion for the wall. It would have allowed Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients and some temporary protected status holders to apply for a three-year extension of some legal protections, but included new restrictions on asylum seekers.
In a blow to Trump, that proposal got less support in the Senate than the stopgap measure, failing in a 50-47 vote.
The back-to-back failed votes in the Senate guarantees that the partial government shutdown will stretch into next week. More than 800,000 federal workers have been furloughed or forced to work without pay; they will miss their second paycheck on Friday.

Get out of your feelings speaking to me. They will be paid for all of their time spent working. What are you talking about? I’m speaking about federal government employees.
