Anyone who believes Schumer or the Democrats as a whole are responsible for this shut down need to ask themselves why when Republicans hold the executive and legislative branches they still can't all agree on how to get things done. There are republicans who voted against their party. That is what is shutting our government down.

I think it's funny that both the Democrats and Republicans have had the government shutdowns and idiots like Nikki scream for more government control.

This is correct.

On another note, the world must truly be coming to an end, even Piers Morgan tweeted something that I agree with.

Even if they did "go nuclear", meaning changing it to majority 51 votes, the Republicans still wouldn't get it passed.

The link below is a list of how everyone voted.
