        A gov't shutdown would be good thing w/its excessive spending ways. Gun licenses are illegal, & a violation of #NaturalLaw & the #2A.

        Shutting down the government would make us stop spending in a very real sense.

        And it will be good for everyone. It's a win/win. Everyone will say we should have more government shutdowns. They'll love it.

        If the Government shuts down, does that mean there is no money for trump to go to MAL no business trips his sons and Melania to stay in NYC?
