GOP in Congress.

The one time the Dems shut down the government it was a legalism that was quickly repaired.

GOPs get elected and then mess up the government they are suppsoed to be running.

That’s by design since Reagan. They mess it up to prove it doesn’t work.

Unfair characterization to not point out it was a republican dominated congress in both houses at the time that did that intentionally.
