The US government is facing a total shutdown, starting tonight at midnight, if a bipartisan deal cannot be reached on the status of DACA.
Of course the Republican led House and Senate will blame the Democrats if this occurs, and rightfully so, because this is what a true Democracy looks like.
If the Republicans have the votes needed, and they are in the majority, then vote and pass your fucked up legislation.
But they don't have the votes needed, even on their side, so shut the fuck up and blame yourselves
The Democrats failed to stop that tax bill, which was a give away to the corporations and the wealthy, while giving crumbs to the rest of the country, so now is the time to say enough is enough, and stand up for what is right, and that is to let the over 700,000 Dreamers stay in this country, and not face deportation to countries they never knew.
That is the right thing to do, and the Democrats have a moral obligation too make sure it happens
The person that should be blamed is Trump, with his insistence on tying his $18 billion "Great wall, a really great wall" to the bill, a wall that he insists to this day will be paid for by Mexico, (like that will ever happen)
So, what do you think?
Let the government shut down in support of the Dreamers, or give Trump his fucking wall, and let it operate normally.
