  • Republicans, including Mitch McConnell, Lauren Boebert, Marjorie Taylor Greene and more, completely fall apart and turn against each other as Donald Trump's campaign scheme to push a government shutdown to make himself look better is already backfiring on the party. Sharon Reed and Maz Jobrani break it down on The Damage Report.

    CNN’s Manu Raju Warns If House Republicans Listen to Trump It ‘Would Essentially Mean a Shutdown’ Is Coming - www.mediaite.c...
    "CNN’s Manu Raju spoke to several House Republicans on Wednesday about the possibility of a government shutdown as Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) tries to pass a temporary spending bill tied to a controversial election bill being pushed by Donald Trump.
    “Congress has to pass a spending bill by the end of the month. What’s the play here?” anchor Brianna Keilar asked Raju.
    “Yeah, this is going to fail this Johnson plan, even though not just because Democrats are opposed to that immigration provision. They say it’s unnecessary because it’s already illegal for undocumented citizens to vote in this country. Johnson said it is necessary nevertheless,” Raju began, explaining Johnson’s difficult road ahead.

    Anyone who wants a shutdown has absolutely NO idea of how far the damage from a shutdown will go.
    My husband is a DoD employee. He gets paid well, we are fine. If there is a shutdown, he has to work without pay because he is an essential worker.
    Know who will be most affected by a government shut down? People who can least afford it: military families who rely on WIC and SNAP, maintenance workers who work for contracting companies which serve the Federal Government, people who have plans to visit National Parks, hotels which service nNational Parks, tour guides, those types of people…people on the edge whose finances count of governmental funds to feed their families.
    The Federal Budget sends money EVERYWHERE.
    And, yes, all non essential government workers are sent home on furlough, and when the shutdown is over, they get paid for all of that time they just stayed home. A shutdown is a paid vacation for many, and a potential financial disaster for many more.

Those people who end up getting back pay are people who are likely living paycheck to paycheck so they don't have the luxury of waiting months to get paid and they likely get a part time job if time stretches long enough. And I'm sorry but who can enjoy time off of work when you are worried about when you will be able to go back or when you'll get paid again. They aren't going on vacation during that time. What's more likely is that they are stressing about every penny and not doing anything extra. They are likely waiting by the phone to be told they can come back. Who do they think they are talking about??? It shows you how out of touch they really are. The 1% have no idea what struggle is. These politicians on the right, and some left if we are keeping it honest, and these newscasters as well. Unbelievable.

    During a shutdown during Trump’s presidency, my dad was needing a knee replacement…..he needed it in a bad way. This was during the really really long shutdown. The agency that approves things such as the device used to replace the knee (to make sure that the mechanism was medically sound) was shut down. It was on the verge of getting approved but then the government shutdown. He was literally bedridden the entire time the government was shutdown. It was a miserable and physically painful and humiliating experience for him. Things that you never ever think about get messed up during a shutdown. 😢

      @@holvinrumblebee9607 My hand puppet Evil Bunny in the Hat ( Overlord ) has a skit about Mitch McConnel being dead for years. His Great Grandpappy offed him cause he was too Liberal!!! So it's his Great Grandpappy in Mitch's body. In the home of McConnell is the house of the dead. All the families are all just floating around the house.
