      Yeah he has embraced the Freedumb Caucus like a kid at Christmas.

      Remember when he talked about the record setting economy

        When the old and poor people don't receive their SSA and SSI checks come January 1, they will throw an uproar. The party might not care right now, but they'll care come November 2020 because in most of the states and seats that they won, they can't reliable get enough votes from the remainder of the voting public.

        ETA: Also, when was the last time that the Federal government did a partial shut down and it worked out for the GOP's benefit? They've lost the public opinion war each and every time Since Clinton's time in office.

          "Government Shutdown!" makes for wonderful bold font blinking headlines on news sites ...

          ... but 86% of the government still operates.

            They would have had a shot (a small one since Trump flat out called for a shutdown but still) in a couple months since the Dems took over...but any chance of that is dead. He is going to screw over everyone over a wall no one wants and we werent supposed to pay for.

            He needs another Caravan or a terrorist attack anywhere but Syria or this could get real ugly. If it happens in Syria he might as well resign

              Fortunately for Mitch, to look like he'd done well all he had to do is manipulate Harry Reid into opening the nuclear option for him.

              That said, no, it isn't/wasn't a high bar for Mitch to deal with.

                Yes, 86% of the government will still operate, but welfare and SSA checks will not be paid. A shutdown has a direct customer impact, using business parlance.

                      At this point, Trump would probably give away the farm for his 5 billion in border wall funding.

                        How much does that mean when people are living paycheck to paycheck, or gov't distribution to gov't distribution, as it were? If I can't buy food today, what good will that do me a month from now, perhaps two?

                              Also, how much of that 86% working are doing it without a paycheck?

                              Last I heard, many of the people working will not get paid until the shutdown is over.

                              So go ahead and say "all is well". It's not.

                                That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.
