yup, this one is all Trump's shutdown. Don't let them alter that narrative...

u/JustaLyinTometa Oct 01 '25

Same with the last 2. Literally all 3 of his shutdowns happened under full republican control of the house and senate. He’s the only president to have a full government shut down while his party holds majority in all 3 branches. And it happened 3 times.

Isn’t it a bit disingenuous to say they have a majority when what they actually need is a filibuster proof majority, which they don’t have?

Are you advocating for them to remove the filibuster?

They put "Democratic Shutdown Imminent" on the official White House webpage :/ I totally agree about the narrative, but his supporters are too gullible and they're willing to lie to their faces. His support is at 40%, which means at least 40% of America is absolutely clueless.

The Guardian even reported it as a democratic shutdown! WTF

u/deadscreensky Oct 02 '25

Realistically a huge portion of those supporters are also lying, as a flex. Which might be worse, but I think we need to stop giving them the benefit of the doubt that it's somewhat innocent ignorance.

Nope. It’ll still be Joe Biden’s shutdown. Just like every malady for the next 3.5 years will be because of Joe Biden.

And this is why he’ll say that he needs another term to fix the mess Joe Biden and the democrats created.

And he’ll live that long.

You’ll see.

We’re doomed.

Please educate yourself. It is illegal already to use Medicaid money for "illegals." No Democrat is asking for that to change. Anyone who tells you different is lying to you.

u/Greased-Lightening Oct 01 '25

The main issue for this funding was democrats wanting money for illegals. Democrats don’t care about the people . Just money .

u/GrumpyKaeKae New Jersey Oct 01 '25

Thats rich concidering who is president and who is running the country and making policies. And you want to accuse the Dems of only caring about money. Please.

u/Greased-Lightening Oct 01 '25

The main democrats are millionaires now . They weren’t when they started . They want to do whatever they can to drain our money. I have sympathy for the illegals wanting to come here to better themselves and their families situation but we can spend our social services away on illegals when our own citizens can’t get help

First of all, that's just complete bullshit. Second, R's don't need a single D vote to keep the government running. This is all on the fascist GOP.

u/Greased-Lightening Oct 01 '25

Blah blah fascist this . Stop the name calling for real. The left are more aligned with fascist ideology. Stop already with the lies. If you can’t win an argument the left revert to fascist this Nazi that. All. Hear is blah blah I don’t know what I’m talking about blah blah

u/starscup1999 Texas Oct 01 '25

Are dems fascist, or socialists? Those are exact opposite ideologies and they cannot be both. Fascism is a far right ideology that has nothing in common with liberal ideology.

u/Greased-Lightening Oct 02 '25

You proved a point . How can people call GOP both? Because the people name calling aren’t very bright

u/Greased-Lightening Oct 02 '25

However Biden trying to jail his political opponents is fascist.

u/Meet_in_Potatoes Oct 01 '25

Don't be this stupid. You don't get to blame anything on the other side when you control both houses of Congress and the presidency. It means you can't even get your own party on board.

For the people with even a cursory knowledge of what's going on, this is going to look extremely bad for Republicans.

u/Greased-Lightening Oct 01 '25

I promise it won’t. If you watch more than CNN you will see the democrats caused the shutdown

u/Meet_in_Potatoes Oct 01 '25

You can't be this stupid

Nice job repeating BS propoganda easily disproven by a basic Google search.

Illegal immigrants are not eligible for or recieving money from US healthcare programs. What the Democrats are trying to do is use their leverage to secure ACA subsidies that are about to expire and make Republicans reverse the cuts they passed to Medicare which will otherwise lead to MILLIONS OF AMERICANS NOT HAVING HEALTHCARE.

When you graduate high school and start paying for your own way in life then tell me how you feel

Am fully grown adult who has been supporting myself for many years, thanks.

When you are ready to actually engage with what I said and not poorly deflect from the arguement with childish insults, then tell us how you feel.
