My two thoughts for tonight on the looming shutdown

There's a shit sandwich on the table. Only the American people can decide if they want to blame the chef for making it or the customer for refusing to eat it. I never bought into in supply side economics anyway.

In the event of a government shutdown, Air Force 1 and Marine 1 should both be grounded for trips not related to national security or national emergencies. Not being able to attend his 1st anniversary party in Florida this weekend might impact some of idiot-boy's posturing. No consequences for him. Just for the rest of us. That's not right.

Including the idiot-in-chief who thinks it will affect everyone but him.
