They now own the shutdown.
Yep.
And the press will hound them day after day for being obstructionists /s
Right now the Democrats own the shutdown. We should keep it that way.
In the Ted Cruz shutdown, The unnecessary 13% of the government shutdown (allegedly).
If 13% is unnecessry/non-essential then let’s make the shutdown of 13% permanent. And the Democrats will own it.
What a way to drain the swamp.
What a way to win.
But wait. Are McConnell and Ryan and the establishment Republicans so stupid that they will take ownership of the Shutdown away from the Democrats?
I am at a loss as to how they would even have the power to force a shut down
I just answered my own question......Trump needs some Dem votes to do a Ryan McConnell end around
I hope there is a shutdown because the President will be able to shut down half the bloated government - as long as he keeps the entitlements (SSI and military retirement) coming. The welfare and congressional pay he should stop. That should get rat cooperation.
