Would be reasonable to make life better and help people and keep society open, no?

This is begging for an answer from the GOP. It's saying we could be persuaded by some concessions to keep the government open.

I think we will shut down. Trump and Miller believe they can demonize Democrats into Oblivion Obliteration. No compromise.

We should play hardball. Been played too many times.
