Now that the media pundits are trying to shift the blame, this is a reminder

of who is at fault here................there are TWO, let me say this again, TWO assholes that are creating this mess, and it is these TWO assholes, that HATE America, the American worker ................no one else.....................but these two (Trump , Pence) and the lackey's in the white house that sits on a yellow chair and didn't say one word like bump on a log, and his racist brother n law and Stephen Miller.........................




And this is what the asshole in the senate said.................

Don’t blame me, McConnell says. The shutdown is Nancy Pelosi’s fault


snip-

WASHINGTON

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell — who has come under fire for not doing more to end the government shutdown —sought to target a new villain this week by blaming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for the impasse.

As the Senate returned to the Capitol with no sign of the now-record partial government shutdown ending, McConnell took to the Senate floor. He charged that Pelosi, the “very distinguished congresswoman from San Francisco, has decided that opposing President Trump comes before the security of our borders.”

The Kentucky Republican’s remarks on the 24th day of the government shutdown were his sharpest yet for Pelosi, his new sparring partner for the next two years.

And just for the record asshole.........................she passed your bill, that you passed in December.................so go fuck yourself.............................traitor...............this is in you lap....................lock stock and barrel.................this shows exactly how much you will enable a fucking traitor to take the American worker hostage................and if there are high crimes and misdemeanor's...................you will check out on your responsibilities to defend and protect this country from the traitor sitting in the white house..................in other words you will do nothing except enable treason..................and with the two assholes standing behind you, one from Wyoming that POS and the other asshole from South Dakota who is also a POS...............standing there like accomplices to enable the treason............................

McConnell can bring the existing bills to the floor, even the one from last year that already passed both chambers. Sure, trump may veto but that would be easily and handily overridden. McConnell is acting as trump's surrogate here to preemptively create a override-proof veto.

I've already responded to two friends on FB, who posted stories/cartoons about how the shutdown is equally Trump & Pelosi's fault. People are lazy thinkers & a lot of them are mis/un-informed. And the media gives Trump a much bigger voice. Plus they love the drama (ratings) more than they care about America. They've shown that over & over again.
