You can. Shutting it down does no harm to anyone but the fat-a$$ bureaucrats and thecorrupt politicians who care only about their own power and money.

Nonsense. As I said the politicians do not miss the money, or the power, as they still receive their paychecks. The bureaucrats usally get back pay when the shutdown ends. The majority of the time, Republicans are blamed more often, about 90% as losers vs. 10% as winners, because the press cover the derrieres of the Democrats, and the Democrat supporters, are too supid to know the truth, and that apparently rings true even with those with college degrees. That success equates to more power for the Democrats as well.

Things stay hte same for teh duration, except for teh part that shuts down, and nobody is affected. Then the fraidy-cat RINOs get scared and make bad deals becuase people like you are so terrified of a shutdown.

There you go again, because nothing stays the same, snd you even alluded to it with the RINOs caving and giving the Democrats everything they ask for, and often times more than what they asked for. This all hurts the overtaxed citizens to dish out more money wasted, and higher debt accumulated.

Let’s keep it in shutdown mod until we get a good deal with real cuts and not some crappy Democrat Lite “deal” that is worse

You are either a hapless dreamer or you are delusional, and your wushes will never be realized, because RINOs are nothing more than controlled opposition. I honestly think that they are in reality, Democrats posing as Repuublicans.

All they have to do is outlast Trump while thwarting him atr every turn, and they win, and this nation is lost to the criminal enterprise that has control of this nation, and they will become avsolutely totlly corrupt and above the law.

They can't even get convictions against all of the theft we are seeing be exposed.

Do you ever really even pay attention?

Republicans were “blamed” for the 2013 shutdown and won the 2014 midterms.

More and more people are catching on.

Shutting down the government does no harm to anyone. But it reminds us that we can live perfectly fine without so much government. That’s why teh politicians of both parties hate them.

Without shutdowns, what to you propose? Better no deal than a bad deal.
