POLL: Shutdown or No Shutdown

[What Would Jesus Do?]

Will the Dems fold?

Will the Rs bend the rules and bypass the filibuster?

Or will there be a shutdown?

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

I was under the impression that the Rs could not go nuclear at this stage in the process, but Bloomberg is talking as though this is an option being discussed.

 

[SIXERS24]

The Republicans should not do the nuclear option!
I hope there is a shutdown and the stupid politicians get stuck in DC for Christmas.

Chuck is skewering Turd right now. Trump must be seething.

Unless the Rs fold and go nuclear.

 

[86Hawkeye]

Unless the Rs fold and go nuclear.

The Rs won't go nuclear (nor should they), so there will be a shutdown of 25% of the government.

Big deal.

Yeah, not a big deal unless you need that 25% that's shut down.

 

[Tiny Hands Trump]

R's can't go nuclear because doing so means the Dems get free reign when government swings back to their control and Mitch knows it.

 

[Huey Grey]

Big deal.

Border agents may not get paid.

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

If there's a shutdown and Trump is on a 16-day golfing vacation, does that mean the shutdown will last at least 16 days.

Even Hatch is against the nuclear option.

"I’ve long said that eliminating the legislative filibuster would be a mistake," said outgoing Senate Finance Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) in a string of tweets explaining his position.

"It’s what’s prevented our country for decades from sliding toward liberalism. It’s inconvenient sometimes, but requiring compromise is in the interest of both parties in the long term," Hatch said."

I bet he doesn’t care. He’s lining up people to blame. Dems, McConnell, the WH butler...

No limit on what a person can do when not constrained by the truth.

Speaking of the filibuster.

This was on the tube about noon...
Mcconnel spokesman says no majority so no nuclear option

Edit another report said many lawmakers have gone home.

He already said he is not leaving DC until the process is over
