A Five Billion Dollar Wall Wouldn't Fit In Santa's Bag

President Trump must have been a bad boy because Santa didn't bring him the wall he wanted for Christmas.  Now the Federal Government is shutdown and it does not look like it's going to open back up anytime soon.  I don't see the President giving in to the Democrats nor do I see the Democrats giving any money to Santa so he can deliver the President a wall.
     We have had government shutdowns before. In 2013 the shutdown  lasted 16 days, in 1995 the shutdown lasted 21 days so the current shutdown has legs to run for a good while.  The President has very little credibility with party leaders on either side of the aisle so no one really wants to work with him.  I've got news for the President, the longer he holds out and refuses to cut a deal with the Democrats, the faster he loses any leverage he has.  When the President doesn't get what he wants he simply fires somebody, I'm surprised he didn't fire Santa
