Winning the Shutdown

Trump is starting to freak out that he will lose the shutdown:
President Donald Trump on Tuesday pressed Republicans to do away with the filibuster in the Senate, warning that failing to do so would cost his party control of Congress and the White House in the next two election cycles.
“The Democrats are far more likely to win the Midterms, and the next Presidential Election, if we don’t do the Termination of the Filibuster (The Nuclear Option!), because it will be impossible for Republicans to get Common Sense Policies done with these Crazed Democrat Lunatics being able to block everything by withholding their votes,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.
“FOR THREE YEARS, NOTHING WILL BE PASSED, AND REPUBLICANS WILL BE BLAMED. Elections, including the Midterms, will be rightfully brutal,” he continued. “If we do terminate the Filibuster, we will get EVERYTHING approved, like no Congress in History.”
The posts came on Election Day morning as voters in Virginia and New Jersey are set to decide two hard-fought gubernatorial races — and on Day 35 of a government shutdown that more Americans blame Republicans for than Democrats, according to an ABC News poll last week.
Sometimes, even the dumbest motherfucker in the world can be right.
We are entering into win-win territory, politically at least. Either Democrats keep holding tight and either Republicans cave or Democrats dominate the midterms, or Republicans finally destroy the filibuster and it’s a huge win for democracy that eventually pays off for liberals.
