Yeah, they took the Senate a few months later, big deal. People don't care about these games other than they see it all as stupidity of DC.

Perhaps, I have no problem with the Dems getting the blame for shut down. Any more that I don't have a problem with Reps showing shutdown is really no big deal in the short term...like a month.

We are smarter now - that last shutdown hurt businesses because of how Obama did it. Because of that shut down ppl are watching who is causing this and when Dem's stand up on TV & say they are shutting down the govt because of DACA we pretty much know who is doing it -Dems!

With a shut down a as a backdrop: If enough dems “protest” trumps sotu speech aren’t they sort of telegraphing to the public at large: “you don’t need us anyways.” Sort an out of site, out of mind thing?
