Democrats Strategy for the Near-term: Shutdown the Government and Blame Republicans for Shutting Down Government

[otto105]

So, the Democrats will NOT filibuster?

I hope they do. But even if they do the senate can use a reconciliation bill and pass it on a majority vote.

Then why do you hope they filibuster?

You want a shutdown?

So, the Democrats will NOT filibuster?

It does not matter what the Dems do, Seymour. The GOP dominates Congress. Only they can shut down the Government.

So maga owns their own bill.

Yes, I want maga to debate themselves over entitlements and own the result.

They wouldn’t own it without a filibuster? Why not, if no dem votes for it?

Then there will be no shutdown?

That's up to the Republicans.

You cant filibuster budget votes. Just needs a simple majority.

 

[hadit]

Make the GOP own the budget.

If they can't pass it, then that is their fault.

Or they can compromise.

Funny how democrats only discover the value of compromise when they're in the minority, then promptly forget it again when they're not.

 

[hadit]

That's up to the Republicans.

Democrats say the exact same thing when they're in the majority and cause a shutdown. It's what they do.

 

[citygator]

Democrats say the exact same thing when they're in the majority and cause a shutdown. It's what they do.

When? Shutdowns occur when a party doesnt control both houses or cant agree with themselves. Democrats have never had a shutdown when they were a majority of both houses. Only the Pubs are struggling to agree with themselves.

They should. What makes you think they won’t?

CNN said “Senate Republicans would need at least eight Democrats to back the bill.”

Are they right?

I thought the GOP had ended budget cloture votes for this term and I am wrong.

Good.

Me too!

The Democrats shutting government down would be like Christmas in March.

I agree! For America!

Shutdown the Government​

Whoever pulls that off, regardless of their motives, are heroes.

 

[Blisterfinger]

They will filibuster if they want because it is their constitutional right to do so.

Then they can own the shutdown

You own the disastrous results of the buffoon Biden regime. Congratulations
