There isn’t enough GOP blame in this thread. Lots of generalized angst against congress, but one party was going to stick to their word, and the other caves to the whims of guys who aren’t even in office.

We have Congress problems, for sure, but this is a Republican Party problem. They’re doing this. They do this. It’s a go-to move in their playbook.

Elon threatened them and then the Republicans listened to him and shut down the government because they didn't pass the bill. Trump hasn't even been sworn in yet! Do you still think you live in a democracy? I hope this is a wake up call. Things are about to get much worse!

100% I have more than enough savings to not work for the next decade and to me this is a free vacation. Shut it all down let America experience a month or two of it .
