Republicans are the best at governing. Their track record proves it! /s

GOP leaders don’t care. They still get paid and get e****** at airports to skip TSA lines.

The blame for this frustrating shutdown goes out to that mentally incompetent shitgoblin by the name of Donald (The Dumbass) Trump and his flock of Republican sheep who just don’t mind f**king the country up, this has got to stop ASAP for the good of the nation and the good of the World, if you really want to make America great again then you must vote Democrat in the 2026 Midterms and then Democrat in the 2028 US Presidential Election in order to put a full stop to this madness because each day is getting closer and closer to the point of no return.

Republicans are monsters who can't govern. [Before Trump, the US Government had only been shut down for a total of 60 days \(that includes partial shutdowns\).](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_shutdowns_in_the_United_States#List_of_federal_shutdowns) Under Trump *alone*, the US Government has been shut down for 160 days (and counting, obviously). Under Republican administrations, the US Government has been shut down for 173 days (7 of those days were under a Democrat-controlled Congress). Under Democrat Administrations, the US Government has been shut down for 44 days (27 of those days were under a GOP-controlled Congress).
