John Thune and his fellow Senate Republicans are headed to the White House today to meet with Donnie Rotten. The agenda isn't to discuss ways of getting the government reopened, but to express their fealty and solidarity with the chosen one.
As a matter of fact they have stated that they will not negotiate with the Democrats over anything! This my way or the highway attitude is at the heart of the dysfunction that is the hallmark of this administration and their accomplices in the Congress.

You're not going to get people working without pay indefinitely, particularly with the general economy falling off a cliff. We'll start hearing about sick-outs, the blue-flu in all colors.
Donnie Dipshit is pushing this to the max. He needs to get it back x 1000.
Gonna be interesting!
