[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nobody cares about the shutdown anymore, especially outside DC. It is yesterday’s news, the new normal, whatever you want to call it. Just look at CNN, even they are barely discussing it now. The news cycle is short, and the shutdown is long, so it’s no longer a story. [/quote]

This is not true. Most of the furloughed workers are outside of DC area. American farmers also care about the shutdown since it is hurting them.[/quote]
Only 15% of federal workers are in the DC metro area (DC, MD, No. VA)[/quote]

Yes, but it’s only 800K people out of 320 million. And it has gone on for almost a month. How long do you honestly expect people to care?[/quote]

Nice try.
The effects are growing exponentially all across the country. And people blame Trump and his Repub minions. [/quote]

Sorry, but no. Airport security lines are short, planes are flying normally, and the National Mall is trash free, contrary to what the Fake News media would have you believe. The President has the upper hand on this one and can easily keep the shutdown going without losing support. In fact, it’s what his base expects and demands. Stand strong, Mr. President![/quote]
Airport in Houston just closed a checkpoint due to staffing shortage.  Second airport to do this since Friday.

Nobody cares about Miami. Not PP and not me.[/quote]
You think people don’t care about limited flights to Miami in January? Can’t speak for Houston, it is awful but I guess people still need to go there.[/quote]

Now it has come to Dulles.
