Keep the government open, so we can destroy it, or shut the government down, so we can destroy it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but those are the choices Retrumplicans are giving the American people.

I'd rather not fund either choice.

2. You nailed it....

I have had this conversation with my hubby many times....He says, if they do such and such it will be playing into their hands. I say if they don't do such and such it will be playing into their hands. We are always both correct....because there isn't a single action that they won't spin around to favor themselves.

Therefore, I think we should always take action strictly on what is considered the best option and not even consider the optics and/or perceptions.
