THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN, DEMOCRAT LOGIC AT ITS FINEST…

So on the subject of our continuing partial government shutdown, it’s at the risk of repeating myself that I will once again reiterate that any blame for it happening in the first place rests solely with the Democrats. And contrary to what so many in our ‘fake news’ media may claim, it’s been made to continue for the simple fact that it’s all the Democrats have. While our president has secured our border, been busy making our cities here at home much safer and ending foreign wars, even bringing peace to the Middle East, what have the Democrats been doing other than trying to force taxpayers to provide free healthcare to those in this country illegally.

And Democrats show absolutely no sign of relenting. And it was earlier this week that we heard yet another bizarre reason for allowing the shutdown to continue. It was during Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Arena,” when Chris Van Hollen responded to a question on why Senate Democrats won’t vote for a clean continuing resolution, by saying, “They have fired federal employees in the absence of a shutdown. In fact, they have less legal authority to fire federal employees in a shutdown than in the absence of a shutdown.” And federal workers “want some kind of assurance that this kind of illegal activity won’t continue. But Trump’s unwilling to do that."

Van Hollen said, “I’ve now voted seven times in the Senate, and will vote an eighth time this evening, to keep the federal government open, but to do so without giving Donald Trump a total blank check to continue his illegal activities, which, from day one, have harmed federal employees, and to deal with the healthcare crisis that is about to be triggered because Republicans left a ticking time bomb on health care. And we would like to have a discussion with the president. He’s been working to try to bring an end to the conflict in the Middle East. But he is unwilling to address the situation right here at home and talk to Democrats about ending the Trump shutdown."

Host, and resident CNN bimbo, Kasie Hunt then asked, “But let’s be realistic, Democrats could decide, Sen. Chuck Schumer could decide to vote to pass the CR, again. Why not do that?” Van Hollen responded by saying, “Well, because we’ve seen what’s happened since day one of the administration, right? They have fired federal employees in the absence of a shutdown. In fact, they have less legal authority to fire federal employees in a shutdown than in the absence of a shutdown. The judge will decide a preliminary motion in that case tomorrow. But they’ve had Elon Musk and his chainsaw since day one."

Van Hollen went on to add, “I just met today, Kasie, with fired federal employees from much earlier in the administration. So, what I’m hearing from federal employees is they want some kind of assurance that this kind of illegal activity won’t continue. But Trump’s unwilling to do that. He’s willing to give the president of Argentina $20 billion of taxpayer money, but he’s not willing to work to end this shutdown.” You really have to wonder if they ever listen to themselves. Van Hollen says we won’t end the shutdown because the President is using it to legally fire people and we don’t like that. So, we’ll give him the opportunity to fire even more. Does he think we care?

What Democrats like Van Hollen are really saying is, “I’m going to continue hitting myself in the head until my headache stops.” I mean, here’s yet another example of your supposed enlightened, sophisticated and educated leftists, right there. Just a bunch of spoiled brats, throwing a collective tantrum. Liberals like these people are why the phrase “cutting off your nose to spite your face” came into being. For me personally, I sleep much better at night whenever the government is shuttered. After all, there’s much less of a chance of reckless spending and corruption occurring when our members of Congress are sent home for a while.

And as far as I’m concerned, they can keep government closed and President Trump can continue to eliminate thousands more useless government positions. President Trump is firing nonessential government employees, and all the Democrats are doing is to prove every day by keeping this shutdown going is how it is that we don’t really need them. This is the classic definition of a win/win scenario as far as President Trump is concerned. I mean if the Democrats cave and the government opens back up, he wins. If the Democrats continue to sit tight, more of our bloated federal work force will be made to shrink away, and he still wins. The Democrats can’t win.

Every day I wonder how it is that Democrats continue to elect some of the most ignorant people ever to hold political office. And old Van Hollen is right up at the top. He’s another of those who simply cannot fathom that the majority of the American people know that they don’t require the number of people currently employed by the federal government to perform the day-to-day operations. The Democrat Party is the most immoral unethical despicable perverted pathological bunch of lying scumbags that this country has ever seen and now is time for American patriots to reduce their numbers to the greatest extend possible before they destroy our great republic.

So I’m curious, what other reason can the Democrats come up with while they search for a reason that they hope will resonate with voters. First it was a shutdown caused by Republicans, that gets shut down by actions taken by the Democrats. Then it was a shutdown because Medicaid was being defunded but that gets shut down by the fact that Democrats actually want 1.2 trillion dollars to support free healthcare for illegal immigrants and to fund gender transitions. Now the reason to continue the shutdown is because federal workers are being fired, but the facts are that government efficiency and shrinkage was always a goal of President Trump.

The level of stupidity within the Democrat Party these days is nothing short of staggering. And the fact that those in the ‘fake news’ media allow this obvious circular argument to continue without question only makes this entire scenario doubly stupid. This is a Democrat shut down; they chose to shut down the government. There is simply no need for the Republicans to negotiate any further as they have done their job, they produced a clean continuing resolution (CR). Once the CR is passed you can work on negotiations before the next bill is needed. So, Democrats like Van Hollen can spin it any way they want, but the more they talk, the more lies we all hear.
