To be fair they are just edited clips.

But the talking points are real.  It's who you support on what side you believe.

Probably misleadingly edited clips taken out of context. The Daily Caller has a history of running with false news stories, so any video from them is highly suspect as far as truthfullness is concerned.

Anyone going to dispute the content of the video or are you just going to attack who's presenting it and scream MAGA

They are edited to make Democrats look bad, agreed as they only present one side.

They push the side of, Democrats voted against the bill to open the government, plain and simple.

The other side not presented in the clip is the reason why, to protect healthcare.  Republicans have slashed healthcare funding.  Republicans have decided to stop SNAP payments, Republicans have voted against bills to fund SNAP.  Republicans could open the government today with a simple majority vote but this is politics so they choose to blame Democrats.

Gutter:  Trump is an existential crisis to our democratic system!

Also Gutter:  The Republicans should set the dangerous precedent of eliminating the filibuster for budget bills because years ago the Dems passed a temporary ACA relief bill for the Covid crisis.

Where did I say "should"?  I said they can, but they refuse to, and it's not because they want to respect laws and decorum since they've already done that.

What Is the ‘Nuclear Option’? Republicans Invoke It Again | TIME https://share.google/oDJ13ZxIJvQwcUjPq

Republicans voted on Thursday to change the rules of the Senate in a rare move that will allow them to expedite the confirmation process for President Donald Trump’s executive branch nominees.

The party-line vote using the so-called “nuclear option” will enable the Senate to confirm some presidential nominees as groups, rather than individually, with only a simple majority vote.

I said budget, I didn't say it hadn't been done.  This is a different topic.

[Ron_Artest 2,171]

"THE CHOICE IS CLEAR — INITIATE THE 'NUCLEAR OPTION,' GET RID OF THE FILIBUSTER," Trump posted Thursday night on his social media site, Truth Social.

As I was telling you, if he wanted to, he could.

He just told you right there.  Enjoy your L.

I think it’s actually Dems fault if they’re the ones that didn’t vote for the CR.

But if they’re going to use the shutdown to fire people it’s just going to make people blame Republicans more.

Of course they CAN.  I never said they couldn't.  I said they shouldn't.  If they do, budget votes for all time will be majority only.

They also don't want to do it because normies see that it's the Dems fault, which is the topic of this thread.  If the Dems are losing the MSM then it must be bad.  Most people realize that a lot of this is Schumer trying to look tough so he doesn't get primaried by AOC or another whackjob progressive.

It's not the Republicans' responsibility to stop the Dems from pissing into the wind.

The public blames Republicans and the president more than Democrats.
