On topic after topic, President Trump made clear that he would be the arbiter of any limits to his authorities, not international law or treaties.
Its not like the American Revolution and Constitution are total rejections of this view or anything.
Sure… but supporting something and actually doing something are two different things. What if we still wanted the government shutdown but democrats didn’t? Who do you think would get their way? Us or the politicians? You make it seem like we the people went to D.C. and shut it down ourselves.
I will agree that overall, they don’t care about us much, but if they didn’t care about us at all, as you assert, the government would never have shut down in the first place. It’s not so much that they care about us personally, but they care very much about our votes, so they have to pretend. They were trying to preserve Obamacare for the PEOPLE, not because they care, but because they knew that just letting it go without a fight would hurt them later at the polls.
The potential outrage from voters influenced them to pursue the shutdown in the first place. Unfortunately, they eventually folded, because ultimately, the DINO Bosses are weak, cowardly, insipid, wormy little bitches.
