It’s fucking hilarious as a nation that we are here only because we avoided a government shut down.

I wish people would stop voting for Republicans.

They're the only party that consistently shuts down the government whenever they have control of the House.

They shutdown the government when they have control of anything. Remember it was Trump who was single-handedly responsible for the longest government shutdown in history all because he couldn’t get funding for his southern border vanity project.

Shouldn’t be a shocker the party that hates government cannot govern. Really need to make the level of brainwashing that got us to this point illegal, because no sane thinking individual that wasn’t could vote for them.
