why didn't they just try changing senate rules lmao, or just ignore the parliamentarian? are the fascists this incompetent?

Don't take this as incompetent, they wanted the government to shutdown. They have something going on right now where if the government shut down, they were effectively ending a bunch of administrative positions in a reduction of force.

This shutdown is just one more way they are trying to destroy this country through destroying the mechanisms that run the government.

Welp, blue states can form a new country, republicans will just have to reap what they sow.

If conservatives alone got what they deserved (misery) it wouldn't be so bad. But they insist on taking everyone else down with them, too.
