I'm proud of the Democrats tonight

CBS News did a poll the other day. Margin of error was 3%.

According to the survey, almost 9 in 10 respondents — 87 percent — said they believe that the so-called Dreamers should be allowed to remain in the U.S. if they meet certain requirements, such as working or going to school.

87%.

For the first time in U.S. history there's a government shutdown when one party has controlled the House, Senate and White House. And they're shutting it down, in large part, over something 87% of the people want.

The Democrats, and some Republicans, are fighting for something the people want. They're showing some balls. A good day for America. Hope the GOP decides to turn the lights back on. It's all up to them.

Thank goodness the Democrats are taking a principled stand. There was an agreement last week that trump had said on Tuesday he would support. On Thursday, when Senators Graham and Durbin did, trump turned it into a shithole show. And so now, we have the McConnell/trump Shutdown. Enjoy this Republican dysfunction show, folks.
