Will the GOP blame Hillary or Obama for the shutdown?

Lets see....House passed continuation bill....and 95% of Republicans want to pass it in the Senate...but 100% of Dems don't want to pass it because they want to have millions of noncitizens stay here illegally, with the intention of creating a partisan pro-dem voting bloc.

The Center For American Progress (CAP) Action Fund admits that “DREAMers” are a “critical component of the Democratic Party’s future electoral success.”

So like usual it is the Dem way or no way. The government has shut down before....if that is what it takes....so be it.

Watching Paul Ryan yesterday just blatantly LIE that it's because of Democrats made me want to reach through the screen and grab his little Eddie Munster throat. They will say or do anything. And as long as they have things like the WH media arm of FOX there to tell people the sky is really green and not blue, there will be people who believe it. Blows my mind.

The GOP spin machine is on. They are blaming it on the Democrats, and using the military as leverage.

The bottom line: Trump, the citizen, during an interview with Fox, in October of 2013, said that the buck stops with Obama (during a similar situation), and that the President has discretion over how funds are doled out, if there is a shutdown.

Instead, he's lying and saying that it's the Democrats who are cutting funds to the military. All he has to do, is the shutdown happens, is exercise his executive powers, and dispense funds to the military. It's really that simple, and that's where the buck stops.

Shutdown? Was someone under the impression the government was currently functioning?

They'll each blame each other. I think it'll stick to the GOP, though. They run the place, afterall.

Wasn't the orange guy in charhe supposed to be a master dealmaker?

Trump is already trying to blame the dems. It's futile, as they control all three branches..hard to get past that, unless you are a head in the sand trumpster.

They will blame congressional Democrats and the Democrats will blame the GOP. That's Washington, it's always the other parties falt. And the government shutting down means nothing. All government programs still get funding during a shut down. Snap, social security, Medicaid, Medicare, all of them. Government employees don't get paid but once their is a spending agreement reached they get back pay with interest. Nobody suffers during a shutdown. It actually happens all the time and you don't even notice.

It will not matter whose fault or why there is a shut down if there is it will be blamed on who ever does not vote to let a funding bill go through. Since the house passed a funding bill it will not be blamed on them, they need 60 votes in the senate to get it passed, right now it looks like the democrats are not going to let it go through if they don't get their way, if they stick to that then the democrats will get the blame.

Republicans are insane and have no interest in governing. They prove it daily and have for years.

Certainly. It's all Hillary's and Obama's fault. 😒

Good post! 👍

I think you summed it up pretty well

Says a lot, right? #MAGA

They’re already blaming the Democrats, at least Trump is. [b]This[/b] is a prime example of why Trump is such a shite leader. Rather than trying to take responsibility as [b]president[/b], or at least trying to be conciliatory and resolve things, he’s [b]always[/b] looking for someone else to [b]blame[/b].

I think they will blame the same people Barry blamed.
