    So, I get it, some in DC are “totally prepared for a very long shutdown,” but what happens come 3 Jan 2019? Can they just... not go out sine die? Does the go on indefinitely? Not (necessarily) asking rhetorically.

    If the government shuts down,Democrats will wait until Jan. 3, quickly pass a yearlong bill through the House. Schumer will try to call it up in the Senate. McConnell will table his motion. Then Rs will own the remainder of the shutdown Trump forced. It's not hard math.

    In which gets into the wayback machine to when Hoyer & Pelosi were Senate interns together to understand the much-speculated-upon frenemyship between House Dems' #1 and #2. "I’m not Nancy’s lieutenant,” Hoyer sniffs. “I’m Nancy’s partner.”
