tired reaction to the government shutdown

It has been clear for a while the Democrats want to pass protection for the "DREAMers" and the Republicans want the DREAMers to go away. The House decided not to perform the one action the Constitution requires them to do: write a budget!

The Democrats will work with the Republicans in passing their silly ass "continuing resolution" (CR)if and only if the Republicans vote to protect the DREAMers. The Republicans refuse to do so and the Democrats apparently thought they had no choice and voted to filibusterer the CR bill.

The government was shut down.

Trump is blaming the shutdown on the Democrats (silly reaction) and the Democrats are blaming the shutdown on Trump (after all, Trump killed a bill that could have brought the Dems and Reps together in answering both parties' concerns.)

Just how did Trump get erected President anyway? People knew what they would be getting?

I am embarrassed my country voted for Trump.

I made a point of "singing a hymn for Trump" before writing this note.
