I doubt it. Trump shut the government down right before Christmas in 2018 for 5 weeks. He isn’t even President yet, and somehow these fools are letting him run the show. How is that going to look in the history books? “The GOP followed the President-ELECT’s lead and shut down the government for…. Costing the government $XX… “ It’s so stupid.
Trump will say "it happened under Biden" and his idiot followers with a 5th grade education will cheer it on.
Then President Doge will convince Rs in Congress to raise the debt ceiling to bankrupt the country like every Trump company, and his idiot followers will cheer him on.
And why isn’t Biden saying anything now?

It is titled: “ Statement from Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre” and includes no statements or messages attributed to the President. I think we are now at the Weekend at Bernies point of the Biden administration.
Biden respects the separation of powers.
This is a legislative matter at this point.

Elon told Johnson not to allow a vote, and Johnson answers to Elon. This is an R problem.
It’s not really an R problem if Democrats won’t support a short term clean CR to get through the holidays.

The people have spoken and he is their savior!
ATCs and TSA won’t get paid during the busiest part of the year.
It would be kind of cool if Trump trashes Christmas. Kind of a “welcome to my second term”.

Because it’s the truth. Something MAGAs are allergic to.
