If the federal government had been shut down, the federal courts would have been shut down with it. And that WOULD have meant Trump and Elon could have done whatever they wanted.
I just read another piece that said the fed courts would not be shut down. The state courts would not be shut down. So what to believe. And if the gov was shut down, so would their gop departments, so what could the dynamic duo do? Say everyone is shut down except our departments?
I don't think either side knows much about shutdowns as the dems caved every time.
Part of the reality is the lie that it would be shut down for months and months. That's a lie from the gop and an ill informed chicken shit shruumer. Didn't the discount dictator shut us down for his wall. Or a bluff. When was the last time the dems let the government shutdown and not accept a self written cr by the gop nazis? Yeah, I don't remember either.
