No one in Congress—Republicans, Democrats, Independents—should be paid during a government shutdown.

Two questions:
Why are we paying Congress during a federal shutdown?
How quickly would they iron things out, if they weren’t getting paid? If their fabulous health insurance had been revoked?
I’ll tell you. There would be no government shutdowns. Not even for a day.

Fact. I'm from Minnesota, the state where Trump refused to acknowledge or extend condolences when my state rep was murdered.
Trump's always been the snake in his story. Sad part is he has infected a full 1/3 of our nation's population with his hate, his lack of compassion or empathy, and his greed.
