So, what really caused the Shutdown?
The Democrats! Even Democrats here in the South Bay agreed that the Democratic minority had no right to hold our government hostage. The left-wing retort suggests that because Republicans have majorities in both chamber of Congress, they own the shutdown. Democrats once again show how had they are at math. For the Senate to invoke cloture, the motion requires 60 votes. There are 51 Republicans, which means 9 Democrats must join them. The House passed legislation which included nothing offensive to the Democratic Party, including delay of Obamacare taxes, hated by members of both parties.

Cryin’ Chuck Schumer and his desperate, left-wing colleagues chose to shut down the government for three days. It was a massive PR failure, and they quickly acquiesced to all of the GOP’s acceptable demands.
Following this disaster and their disgraceful behavior during President Trump’s First State of the Union address, Democrats are going to have a really rough election cycle this year.

Democrats have become the party which:
- Puts illegal aliens ahead of American citizens, especially our military.
- Blocked health insurance funding for 9,000,00 children (CHIP)
- Defends hateful, unpopular Obamacare
- Sits during praise for our country’s national anthem
- Ignores the plight of families who have lost loved ones to illegal aliens
- Disdains the epic drop in black and Hispanic unemployment
Keep it up, liberals! More of this kind of bad PR, and the GOP will be the only viable political party in the country.
