Put the snack machine in the WH Press Room and quadruple the prices.
He’s right.
The dems are doing exactly what school boards do to force the tax payers to pass their budget.
But instead of sports programs, which constitute a miniscule portion of the budget, they are hanging something else that means a lot to Americans over their heads, and that is paying the military.
It’s despicable no matter who is doing it.
It’s blackmail.
The school boards do it to raise taxes. This shut down is not blackmail in that sense
Obama led the assault (from the rear) on our military for 8 years by loading it with phaggots and perverts and forcing special forces to accept weak sisters by fudging the PT for them.
Chuckles and Nazi have just kept the attack going. The Demokrats are the partie of sozialist queers, cows and criminaliens. They can’t win this fight.
Break the bat over them!
The Cincinnati city council does this every year. Instead of cutting back bureaucracies, they claim they’ll have to cut police and fire unless the budget is passed ...then for good measure, they shove through a streetcar to keep up with their socialist buds in Portland, and raise our property taxes to boot!

The Republicans have NO CLUE how to play politcal War. SIMPLE. Compare the 800,000 the Democrats side with against the 360,000,000 the Republicans side with. All this ‘Military Military’ does not connect with their INCOME.
Then tell them, oh, we have to do away with 2 seats to make room for the vending machine. Goodbye Acosta and April Ryan!
Although it would be hard to choose.
