No. Shut it down. America will survive, President Trump will survive. The rest of Congress can pound sand. Pass a budget, your only job or quit and retire to private life.
Yeah....just kill it.
Present a reduced and balanced budget, and let the RATs vote against it.
In other words, add pork and kick it down the road.
Well, who couldn’t see this coming? I figured the can would be kicked down the road as the clock ticked to zero.
Shut down wont be all that bad but would be nice to see the Rs ‘overcome’ it.
The only reason being that the Ds have already said they are going to do it — BEST thing is to not ‘let’ them, just some more egg on their face and give PDT another in the win column or at least the ‘in your face’ column.
The dems don't do ANY serious compromise, they expect the other side to do all of that. Then they call it bi partisan
Bull
Let the dems shut down the gov it's on THEM if it shuts down.
Republicans/Conservatives be strong and INSIST on Trumps demands be meant.
Democrats will reject it saying it’s not good enough, then the Republicans will turn around slowly, kicking rocks as they walk away. Why can’t the Republicans fight for keeps the way the democrats do?
I’d reject it and tell tweet how the leftists and RINOs refuse to do their job, but there’s an election in November...
Folks...can you imagine President Trump on TV stating that non essential functions within the EPA, the IRS, the DOE and a dozen other overreaching, extra constitutional entities will be shut down to keep critical functions available? He would do it. This is why we hired him....
IIRC, the official who is tasked with determining what is to be shut down down is the OMB Director -- who is Mick Mulvaney.
I worry not one bit that there will be spiteful closings of war memorials and national monuments like there was under Obama.
The government shut down on Monday, and I didn't miss it at all.
Shut it down. If I didn't think that a smaller government was a better government, I wouldn't have voted to hire Trump in the first place.
Is this winning? Effin clowns could not pass a budget if someone wrote and handed it to them. Fire them
Or, they may have decided to just extend until DACA expires and gives Trump more leverage....the idiot “judge” decision won’t hold up so it will expire.
Aaaargh.
Fedzilla does NOT shut down.
Ever.
Dammit.
Uncontrolled auto-spend on our grandkids credit card.
VETO!
But, unlike the previous hate-America/Veterans preResident, leave the "open air" Veterans Memorials open!
People THINK the problem is that unless you get 60 Senate votes it will not pass because of a filibuster. The REAL problem is that Republicans accept the millineal version of a filibuster; where it is threatened and everyone throws their hands up in defeat.
Make someone stand and talk to postpone the vote or just go ahead and vote. The first time we do this no one will even bother to stand and the Democrats will be outraged (same as every day...so what). The next time they will have someone stand and talk for a day...until they stop and then we vote. SO WHAT if they get news coverage. Itll go for. While and then we vote and it passes. By the 10th time people will get bored.
