Congress Is Hurtling Toward a Government Shutdown
Congress Is Hurtling Toward a Government Shutdown
If conservatives can badger Mike Johnson into rejecting any bipartisan deals, they may secure across-the-board spending cuts after a shutdown.

Let them shut it down, all the aged people on the SS bankroll will stop getting checks and they will be like they took my money over the gays(the R's seem to be pushing this over some LGBTQ2S+ laws), do that on someone elses dime. Plus going into election season it wont look good on those that did it.
They'll just blame Biden.
It's probably why they are trying a shutdown right now. Get negativity off of their most recent shitstorms and onto Biden via a momentary distraction
This is what they do every year or two. Instead of fixing things properly by removing the limit on the debt ceiling among others, they wait until it's time to pass a budget and then try to get the most ridiculous things passed or the government shuts down.
We probably need to just call their bluff and let it burn. See how long their people can go without getting their government checks before they turn on them.
if he would just let us be bigots this would have never happened!!
Sadly this is way too optimistic. The maggats will blame the dems for not making a deal. Remember that they don't care about the truth, only what fox, breitbart, etc tell them is true. The dems have let the right paint them into a corner. They (the right) threaten to burn down the house if they don't get what they want and the dems have never called their bluff. That has only emboldened them and they are willing to see their own supporters suffer if it "gets" the libs.
Plus going into election season it wont look good on those that did it.
Have you forgotten how stupid the majority of the electorate is? 100% it will get blamed on Biden cuz he's president and not the pond scum that shoots it's own legislation down for political reasons. Even when there's no possible chance to get something better than what was agreed.
Its hard to think like that, when shit hits the fan I dont just goto the local whipping boy, I look and see whos the shit clogging the pipe.
