"It would be completely reasonable for people to at least partly blame the Democrats for any consequences of the shutdown."

No. The republicans control executive branch, the judicial branch (with judicial branch ceding more to the executive daily - see this past week's court decisions if confused), and majority in both houses of Congress.

REPUBLICANS own all of it - the Iran war, the high gas prices, the high grocery prices, the destruction of the east wing, the f-ing algae in the pool. All of it.

And I will not sit back while people come on this site, after voting for that mango mess, and try to blame democrats for the fall out. Just no.
