Abolish the debt ceiling. Everyone alive knows they have to pay back money they’ve already spent.

Little background on why a couple of those shutdowns occurred. What is it with the gop and not wanting people to have insurance?

so much winning

Trump is leader of a losing regime

Trump is the president of the shutdown! (At least one thing he really knows to do right)

The art of the deal, right?

And as we all know, that’s a failure of the president.

trump sucks.

Temper tantrums. No one ever says no to him.

I'm pretty sure the Clinton shutdown was entirely the doing of Newt Gingrich.

Now match that to who had control of Congress each time....

How are shutdowns still a thing we do? It’s so asinine. No budget passed? Spending should continue at current levels. That’s how less ridiculous national governments handle it.

A list of trump's accomplishments Record government shutdowns 400,000 Covid deaths Unemployment ⬆️ Inflation ⬆️ ICE attacks on innocent people ♾️ Failed in Russia/Ukraine Deal Added $3T of national debt in 9 months Failed as a human Failed in private ventures Failed 2x president I'm tired of winning.

Charts make it crystal clear, don’t they?

He's such a deal maker!

So technically he’s the anarchist.

As far as the orange demagogue is concerned, a record is a record. 💁

RELEASE THE EPESTEIN FILES PEDOPHILE trump IS IN THE EPESTEIN FILES RELEASE THE EPESTEIN FILES PEDOPHILE trump IS IN THE EPESTEIN FILES

Pretty soon this is gonna look like a pink and purple pac-man

Putin owns him

I think it’s important to know that almost all of these shutdowns have occurred since the radicalization of the Republican Party

The Art of the Scapegoat. 😉

Don't you mean: The shart of the deal?!

He holds the record in several things… none good.

Trump Administrations, more than any other seem to prefer not working. Checks out.

What is happening and why are we in this Bathtub? Oh you missed the Reagan Speech there was a whole paragraph about this.

And there’s this too

All caused by the republicans

Yeah he is the greatest shutdowner anyone has ever seen! Thank you for your attention on this (dark) matter. (He is also the greatest deal maker of all times who can't seem to figure out how to make it out of his self-inflicted rabbit hole. Exactly my kind of humour.)

Can we see a similar chart by Speaker of the House?

I would like to see this for "days of shutdown while controlling both Houses of congress"

But didn’t Trump also say, “covfefe”

It's almost like he's a weapon wielded by America's enemies to destroy it from the inside

Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania Votes to reopen the government.

Not only was it shut down during his government, it is also shut down because of his government.

Lets be real about the REAL BATTLE going on in this country. open.substack.com/pub/growingu...

If people who work for the government can’t strike, or even refuse to work when they’re not paid, then shutting down the government should be illegal as well. How does it make even any sense that an entire country like the US would refuse to pay their bills?

We the people could stop this criminal cartel, but everyone is to scared to have national strikes starting at airports then other industries shut down America billionaires will change their minds quick to remove trump if they lose money, this is the only way

Guess Trump really hasn't learned how to run the government in 2 tries. Shame!

I am noticing a conspicuous lack of Biden on this chart, Donnie.

The Shutdown is a political ploy by the Trump administration to force Democrats and independents to acquiesce to his demands. No conscience about the sick elderly or the hungry children. Trump eats fine dining at Mar a Lardo during his Party. So as President he don’t CARE AT YOU OR ME (MAGA).

Right. Because he believes he is a King. Who needs government when you have a King?

We all keep talking about Rep. Grijalva being the 218th signature on the Epstein petition and the reason that the House has been on vacation for weeks. But here's a thought, why not find one (just one) other GOP Rep to sign the damn petition. That way they can screw Mike Johnson.

Something here is very wrong. How did you even get these laws that produce these shutdowns? You know, these aren't a given, as far as I know, the US is the only country in the world where these shutdowns are even possible.

He probably looks at this and says "I WIN"

Under Trump, even when the government is OPEN, they are doing nothing. Only Trump doesn't shut down (except when napping).

Notice how Biden isn’t even on the graph? And it doesn’t matter he only had 4 years, because Bush sr is there.

Democrats were in charge during some shutdowns during the Reagan and GW Bush Admins, but were mostly due to those Presidents vetoing the appropriation bills sent to them.

It’s about time someone said this. He beat his own record

AND the Obama and Clinton shutdowns were GOP's fault. Why don't Dems ask GOP to present their plan for healthcare.

I wonder how many days were under Republican controlled house/senates.

Trump fully enabled by #republicans can’t or won’t govern

The white house has already started to suffer the same fate as the trump casinos......the wrecking ball

Since 1980: 8 total days over 3 separate shutdowns while Dems controlled BOTH houses Over 100 total days over 5 separate shutdowns while GOP controlled BOTH houses

And his ENTIRE family is awful!

Art of the Deal, right?

Dubya had zero shutdowns. Fascinating.

This is a feature not a bug. The more the government is shut down, the more trump and his cronies can steal from the taxpayers with no one noticing. His goal is to never have the government open again. And at this rate, republicans are delivering this to him.

Remind me how it us that the U.S. is the only nation (I think) that puts itself through this? Fifty years of it now? And expensive, too, every time.
