Now he needs to reopen it.

If there was a problem at the border, he could have addressed it during the two years when he controlled the republicans who controlled congress.

The country voted in Democrats to stop the insanity. That means, among other things, we give Individual 1 nothing to open the government because he closed it for no reason whatsoever.

Any discussions about border security can take place after that. And not include walls.
