you'd think just once it would be because the dems are trying to take some kind of stand to preserve some important progressive gain that they've enshrined in their platform but it's literally always just the republicans just arresting the machinery of the government just to show that they can, meanwhile their opponents are like "sure we'll give you whatever just don't make people more mad at us!!"
A week is if they're lucky
But really tho it fucks a lot of shit up can't wait to watch
Biden's Majora's Mask. He is going to use his Ocarina to return to 2021 and repeat everything he did during his goverment.
I want this as a site header, if only for a week.
"It is 2013. The government is shutting down."
"It is 2018. The government is shutting down."
"It is later in 2018. The government is shutting down."
"It is 2024. The government is shutting down."
I love how it's hours : minutes : seconds
3 2 1 balloons and confetti rain down
Can we keep the shutdown permentantly?
