    The GOP is actively dismantling the government. Why would they care about a government shutdown?

    Seems stupid to try to threaten them with one.

      They’re shutting down humanitarianism.

      State control/violence and wider imperialism will continue to be fully funded.

      Not to mention, they’ve consistently threatened us with shutdowns up until now, so the democrats threatening one won’t work. Heck, they would revel in democrats using something from their playbook.
