There's no tactic that would be effective as you can't come back from a gatrillion dollar debt. The hole is too deep. Cutting spending wouldn't even do much at this point.

The left does like to pretend they have no role in government shutdowns.

Reid and Obama rejected them all, then wailed that the mean ol' Republicans were shutting down the government.

Should McConnell and Trump accept the bill the House passed earlier this month?
