Shut it Down. Don\u2019t Pay Them. Flush the\u00a0Swamp.<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/header>\n

Getting ready for another (yawn) threat from Congress that unless it gets what it wants in Trump\u2019s budget, the Dems are ready to walk away from the negotiating table and shut down the government. Of course, in years past, it was the Republicans threatening the shut down.<\/p>\n

Typically, Congress does the government shut down around Christmas holidays, pulling on American heartstrings that our boys in uniform will not get Christmas dinner or desperately needed fighting supplies. If the budget problem lingers into the summer, then the threat of closing public parks becomes the strong-arm tactic for shaking down the American public.<\/p>\n

It really doesn\u2019t matter \u2013 Democrats or Republicans. They are all one big uniparty and their government shut-down drama is just kabuki theater to get\u00a0We the People<\/em>\u00a0to pick up the tab for their pork, lard, and special sexual harassment fund.<\/p>\n

We call your bluff.<\/p>\n

We stand by the President to shut the operation down and drain the swamp.<\/p>\n

Here is what you, as an informed citizen, might care to know about a government shut-down.<\/p>\n
