Another issue...the media is hyping sob stories about TSA employees calling in sick and taking jobs for income now. They'll be reimbursed when it's over. How bad is a system that rewards those who don't go to work?
It's on President Trump. He should have not signed any budgets from evil Paul Ryan. They increased the debt and they didn't include the wall. Instead of doing the wall by Executive Order, he threatened it. And now, Pelosi and her Coven are causing all kinds of chaos so it would look vindictive if he did the Executive Order.
You know what? We Deplorables gave it our best shot. Time and money and participation to get President Trump elected. If this falls apart, Romney/Kasick/Jeb and their ilk can forget about it. I'll never vote for one of them.
It can happen. This is anecdotal: I live in a district for State Rep just out side of Cleveland that would have even Representative Gerry rolling in his grave. It's an artistic creation that assures that deep-pocket construction contractors will have a friend in Columbus. The designated winner had glossy mailed ads every day that told us who to vote for and expensive surveys so he'd champion the correct things. A member of the Club for Growth even came to my house to tell me who to vote for. He was obviously even at that lowly level not his own man. The designated loser the dems chose to run against him ran a clean campaign, basic, fundamental ads with a little humor. Never hid that he's a member of Black Lives Matter, but didn't campaign on crazy issues. Nobody can figure out how Phil Robinson won. It was mad as *ell voters such as myself who were sick of Kasick and what that branch of the Republican Party has done to OH.

I’m not here to defend the furloughed workers, who will get paid eventually, but they didn’t orchestrate the shutdown. To the extent some of them are willing to work for free for now, I commend it. For those who won’t do that, I can’t recommend in favor of slave labor, either.
