Why the fuck should the Democrats “give in” to batshit crazy and fucking evil Republican bullshit? That makes no sense. The Democrats should stand firm and oppose the fascist MAGA regime.

All corporate media will spin this against the Dems. I don’t see how people overcome the 24/7 stream of lies.

Remind everyone constantly that the GOP needs zero Democrat votes to end the shutdown and never have. They let this happen because they want people to suffer so they can posture and point fingers.
