It’s not stupidity, it is much worse. It is purposeful deceit and misdirection. Everything is a calculation. The rats know the media establishment will blame the GOP for a “shutdown”. It has always worked but it might not this time.
Of course the GOP gets the blame—but it won’t matter anyway.
Think about what is going to happen the next few years.
The howling from the left is going to be every day, twenty four seven.
The only folks who will even remember a government shutdown will be policy wonks with twelve followers on X.
Lol.
I hear the rinos are hard at work trying to get something.
