The Democrats’ No. 2 Senate leader, Dick Durbin of Illinois, likened the situation to a family whose ornery uncle lives upstairs and threatens to turn off the electricity every time they talk about building an addition.
“You say to yourself, ‘Am I going to encourage him to shut off the electricity every time there’s a family discussion over an issue?’” Durbin said. “You’ve got to tell the uncle upstairs, ‘That’s unacceptable.’”

I would actually rather see the wall built, but I think there's a good argument that a precedent needs to be set that shutting down the government is not a good way to get what you want.
