"We have people going to the Republican districts and going after — going after these Republicans who are voting for this and forcing them to either face — change their vote or face the consequences."

This pretty much says it all. Republicans in Congress must answer not to their constituents but to bussed-in activists?

Don't think so.

They have no cards

When political parties start believing their own propaganda, they fail.

Even now, instead of listening to voters, talking about a change in policy, their only goal is “Get Trump”.

Bill Clinton’s “era of big government is over”

Trump stating so even a 4th grader can understand, “they have to go back or we won’t have a country”. And acting on it.

Shutdown is better by far.

I am confident that we will bring Trump's popularity numbers and strength down if we keep at it.

If that is your goal, you will fail.

Why not focus on doing what is best for the American people?

The private polls they paid for said that the marx-o-crats would be blamed for a shutdown.

“We have people going to the Republican districts . . .”

That says it all. It’s not hard dissent from the Republican districts. It’s astroturf, paid, operatives from outside the district pretending to be normal people.

The left is too stupid to know that Schumer was right on this.

A shutdown would have given Trump the green light to close everything and fire everyone regardless of what any court said.
