People are going to think the GOP can't get its collective sh#t together and the Republicans will take most of the blame. Especially on Trump's one year anniversary as President.

I know math just fine .1 GOP WH. + 1 GOP Senate. + 1 GOP House of Reps = the 3 big levers of the federal government.
I stand by my original statement about the PERCEPTION of responsibility for the shutdown.No one says you have to love it but when one party controls the Big Three Enchiladas,they get the blame.

The republicans do not control the senate.
In order to control the senate a party needs a filibuster proof 60 senators.
I believe that President Obama had 60 democrat senators for a couple of years,
and we got out of it was Obamacare.

That doesn't make what I wrote incorrect.

Yes my bad.
Not you. All the others who think this won't reflect poorly on Republicans and the President.

It reflects badly on all involved, when the job doesn't get done.

So what you are saying is that the Democrats purposely shut down the government to make the Republicans look bad. I guess they had to with the booming economy and good news coming out of Washington that left the Democrats irrelevant.

They also needed to get the Trump Dossier & FISA out of the Headlines.
Success!

I think you nailed it perfectly! Dems can't handle all this good economic news, politically, nor do they want the public to digest it too much. So, they get to play the Bad Boys and blame the republicans.

It is blatantly obvious the the dems walked out on negotiations - REFUSED to to do the job they were elected to do. UpChuck Schumer has descended to depths hereto unknown to civilized people. HE is the POS big mouth who condemned the GOP previous shut-downs and now he is doing the EXACT same thing he has blamed the repubs for previously.
It was pre-planned to do this on Trump's anniversary. There was 0 change any bill would have been passed. 0. Nadda. As in 0bama, and NObrah.
Upchuckie and the rest of band of anti-american traitors put illegal immigrants ahead of US citizens and our military.
Upchuck is a disgusting POS.
And a liar. PUTIN is more of an American the ANY democrat. ANY of them.

I'm not so sure. If you wanted to really vilify the democrats for a shutdown you would have just put it up for a vote. That way when it failed you could have really hammered them. My guess is it had a much higher chance of passing than Nada hence why it wasn't introduced.

I believe the bill couldn't be voted on.
"Washington (CNN)Legislation to prevent the government from shutting down failed Friday night in the Senate ahead of the midnight deadline. The total on the procedural motion was 50-49, but 60 votes were needed to advance the bill."

All I know is that I cannot wait for the November elections.
The GOP will gain seats in both the House and Senate -- despite all the 'expert' commentary coming from so-called journalists and assorted lunatics in (un)social media outlets.
The landslide GOP victory in November will prove once again that blaming the Republicans for the current government shut down will not hurt them at all come election time.
And I will the remind the anti-Trumpers on here of all this, of course. They do have a history of running away and hiding from their prior silly and incorrect opinions, predictions and posts, especially the most guilty.
Maybe the biased and crazed media should put up a count-down clock to Election Day!
Can't wait for tomorrow because Donald Trump gets better every day

That projection is likely to occur, but think immediate retribution might also occur. People here might think John Conyers might have been a product of research opposition, regardless of who leveled accusations. Major pounds of flesh are about to be served for various dirty deeds by the left. Should something happen to immediately conclude Robert Mueller current job it might spin off huge damage to the left.
