The Democrats shut the government down again. That's the objective truth. The overwhelming majority of Republicans voted for a CR to keep it running. The overwhelming majority of Democrats voted against it. And they did it because of something not related to spending.
Like I said earlier, it's like this every time. The Democrats take the action to shut the government down. But if past is prologue the Republicans will be blamed for it. And there are indications that past will be prologue.

By a 20-point margin, more Americans blame President Trump and Republicans rather than Democrats for a potential government shutdown, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.
A 48 percent plurality says Trump and congressional Republicans are mainly responsible for the situation resulting from disagreements over immigration laws and border security, while 28 percent fault Democrats.
We'll see if that holds over time. If it does, it'll be about time for Republicans to learn that if there is a government shutdown they will be blamed no matter what.
