          That’s my point. There’s absolutely no winning for the Democrats here, no matter the outcome. They’ll be blamed for shutting down the government and all the subsequent shit Trump breaks in the aftermath, or they’ll be blamed for ‘giving in’ and letting Obamacare die.

            Yeah. Unless they somehow figure out how to use messaging effectively. But probably just tens of millions to run the same attack ad every break during Family Feud. As per normal.
