Donald Trump may have a Republican congress, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t face the threat of a government shutdown. Just in case, the administration seems to be quietly prepping for the event.
While the idea of a government shutdown seems unlikely in a time of unified government, it isn’t out of the question. Blame Senate Democrats. While Republicans hold a majority in the chamber, they don’t have the votes to overcome a minority filibuster. They need Democrat support for any bill they pass, but they aren’t likely to get it.
This session’s Senate Democrats have proven themselves to be the least cooperative batch in modern history. Votes that have historically been bipartisan in nature — such as Supreme Court and cabinet confirmations — have suddenly become contentious showdowns. Democrats are simply refusing to vote with Donald Trump on anything.
Now, their obstructionism is threatening to shut down the American government.

These asses need their paychecks weithheld when they dont do their job and work together, after an election there should not be any parties just Americans, lets get rid of some taxes, fix this joke of medical insurance that has destroyed our medical system for far more than it has helped, lets shrink this over sized and over indulgent government…lets make some term limits to end a lot of this madness and give them a cut in pay and absolutely end many of their perks and benefits…we should vote on their term limits, we should vote on their wages, WE ARE THEIR FREAKING BOSSES and they seem to forget that!!!
As long as they dont spend more money putting up barricades to prevent veterans from visiting the memorials then it costs to keep the park open. ARG!
The only ones affected by a government shutdown are the ones that depend on them in the first place. I say let em shut down without pay.
