Message to Republicans: it doesn’t matter what you do, Federal and almost all State workers are not going to vote for you.

They have always known this was coming up. If they didn’t have it worked out before now they deserve everything they get......

I have never understood why this is an emergency a couple days before the deadline when it is known to be coming for a very long time.

At the Federal level, there are literally thousands of loyalists who have been hired to positions they were never qualified to be near, during the past 8 years. Not only will they vote against any Republican in any election, they will work all day long, everyday, to make any Republican they now work for, look as bad as they can make that person look.

I suspect that if the demoncraps force a shutdown, Trump won’t allow barriers to be erected around monuments nor the locking of gates at national parks.

Shut it down...who cares. Just don’t retro - pay the fed “workers”. Usually these meta-slackers get a paid vacay.

If it shuts down the welfare checks won’t get out on time and people will die. It will be the end of the world as we know it.

So it’s Republican’s fault if they’re the minority or majority, if they’re the ones blocking or being blocked.

We’re screwed with this media, never going to get a fair shake.
