Donald Trump wants the courts to stop overturning his random EOs. A shutdown would close the courts.

So we should just give him everything he asked for on a silver platter with no resistance whatsoever and not offer any meaningful alternatives?

It's like invading Iraq when a bunch of Saudis that hate Iraq attack you. You have to ask yourself "is this exactly what they want me to do?" And then "If I want my revenge, whom should I attack and how?"

Attacking federal workers on behalf of Trump is not the way to "Stand up to Trump"
