In reply to the discussion: Trump official threatens to ground all flights before Thanksgiving in shutdown standoff [View all]DFW
(60,243 posts)14. By all means, please go ahead and do that. Please make the announcement TODAY
All we could ask or hope for is for tomorrow's headlines to scream "TRUMP TO SHUT DOWN ALL US AIR TRAVEL FOR THANKSGIVING."
Both the airlines (not to mention the rest of the economy) would just LOVE to hear that announcement coming from the White House, don't you think? That is about the only thing in the world I can think of that would lead to a Republican majority in the House to vote for his third impeachment.

Between the tariffs and grocery costs, the holidays are going to be an old fashioned one.
