We just don't have the votes

7. Yes, it is painful. At some point we have to make a point.

And the r's are not negotiating at all, and they can't be trusted. They aren't spending the money that is in law from last year, illegally. So how can you make any deal? So the move is to cave again and prove that we are weak, even when we are using the only power we have? They don't have the votes either, unless they vote to change the rules. It's time to break things...things are out of control. Funding this bastard of an executive is unethical on its face. They lie about everything, threaten Democrats with military violence calling us terrorists, commit atrocities. Screw em. Let them break it even further. The citizens who still aren't paying attention need to see that things are not normal. We need to shut it down.
