Should Democrats let the government shut down when funding runs out later this month? @nytopinion columnist Jamelle Bouie is “one hundred percent pro a shutdown,” he says in a round table episode of “The Opinions” with Michelle Cottle, a writer for Opinion, and David French, a columnist. @jbouie argues that the Republican Party has “almost completely abdicated any serious attempt to govern the country” over the last 15 years, and it’s finally time for Democrats to stop bailing them out. #nytopinion
This is 100% the correct take. Let voters touch the hot stove.
Let it rip. I want them to feel the “rewards” of their votes. (Yes, I understand that we’ll all feel it, but if they don’t feel it, we’ll never stop this cycle of insanity.)
Some of us are tired of constantly having to save conservatives from themselves. If this is what it takes to get them to vote better for themselves, then so be it. They voted for no safety net, let them live it. Time for the millions of Non-Voters and GOP voters to “touch the hot stove” so they can finally see that both parties are not the same.
