    And this is how you get folks to stay home on the couch in 2026.

      It is stupid to threaten the GOP with a shutdown.

      The GOP is already trying to dismantle the government. A shutdown would just help them do it faster.

        If this were true GOP lawmakers would be pushing for a shutdown themselves.

        I think the most honest answer is nobody knows what would happen after a shutdown with this administration because they’ve just been making up federal law as they go this whole time anyway, but really the fact that Schumer and Fetterman want this bill to pass while Sanders Warren and AOC want it to fail should be all you need to know to know.

          Weird how every time this is brought up, they dodge the comment, yet continue to get mad at Dems trying to do the one thing that would have stopped Trump.

          I wonder why that is!
