  • Government shutdowns are disasters for Republicans, but right-wing media makes it almost impossible for the GOP to compromise in a budget fight.

    The U.S. government has experienced three major shutdowns over the past twenty-five years. In 1995, it was a fight over programs like Medicare. In 2013, it was over an effort to defund Obamacare. In 2018, it was over funding for a border wall. And while each crisis revolved around a different policy fight, they all followed a similar pattern: Republicans, egged on by right-wing pundits and talk radio, were pressured into forcing a government shutdown that eventually blew up in their faces.
    Ever since the 90s, Republicans have become dependent on right-wing outlets like Fox News and Rush Limbaugh to rally and mobilize their supporters. That’s garnered them success in major elections, but it’s also backed them into a corner. Republicans know they can’t betray the conservative pundits who helped elect them, but those pundits are becoming more and more ideologically extreme, pressuring Republicans to shut the government down over even minor funding disputes.
    As long as right-wing media has a stranglehold on conservative politics, Republicans will keep finding themselves steered into crises they know they can’t win.

      -Dems shut down the government over $1.6B for a border wall, only a portion of the $5B, while still gaining other benefits (e.g., DACA extension, better asylum prosecution, immigration reform, etc.).
      -Democrat leaders in the HOR and senate all left capitol hill during the shutdown for vacation whilst Trump and the GOP speaker of the senate did not.
      -Trump gave dems some things they wanted in the proposal, see above, and they still said no due to the $1.6B for the wall (>0.05% of the total 2019 budget).
      -Obama shut down the government for Obamacare costing nearly $500B upon signing the bill, when upon execution cost $1.7TRILLION due to government bureaucracy. Obamacare wont pay for itself until 2040.

We should give more money to schools so that it all gets sent into hiring more administrators instead of expanding the curriculum, paying teachers more, or fixing up the classrooms.

That that that's pretty far from the truth doesn't matter.

      @Levity That's a very dismissive way to talk about millions of federal workers and contractors. Especially the contractors who will not receive backpay.
      How do you figure that many had rainy day funds? Considering several studies were published recently saying how 40% of Americans could not raise $500 for an unexpected emergency expense, and >50% could not raise $1000. News stories abound of the real world consequences to these poor workers. The flow-on effects of this will take years to analyse, it will tie in to loan sharks/pay day lenders, damaged credit ratings, credit card debt, evicted renters, psychological trauma from having to worry about all of the above etc etc.
      And Americans should not have HAD to make charitable contributions. This shutdown should never have happened, and would not have without Fox News attacking Trump directly to influence his decision making.

      Sirius Cakes As an outsider looking in, it appears that Trump does not appeal to all Republicans due to actions he has caused to himself, but only appealing to the extreme Republicans. So that would indeed make him a leader of a cult like following.

    I don’t understand the push for the wall. I think we can talk about reforming an outdated immigration system and we can discuss any adverse effects of the phenomenon, but a giant wall will not fix anything. It is a giant waste of money and all of those “practical, pragmatic deficit Republicans” should know that.
