Not if its done responsibly. If Trump funds necessities and shuts down back office administration, then no one will even notice that the government is shut down. In the spirit of “never let a good crisis go to waste,” maybe he can use a shutdown to fire a bunch of redundant government workers.

I don’t understand why we have to go through this crap all the time. I worked for NY State, and under Mario Cuomo, we never had a budget on time. The State still ran, and people were still paid. No services were interrupted during that time. They’d pay us in what they called “script”, but they were just like all the other checks we got, and the banks honored them.
