Goddamn Felicity in Arrow pissed me off. That show grew to have a lot of problems, but she was an especially terrible part of it.

The big problem with a gov shutdown is, somehow, the US populace can sniff out who caused it (according to a politics podcast I listen to.) So if democrats collectively stood their ground it very likely would have looked bad for them, not republicans.
I honestly don’t know which outcome, shutdown or no, would have been better. Like others are saying, supposedly a shutdown government would have also given Trump/Musk power to do things without congressional oversight. It’s a shitty situation either way.
Not to defend Musk, but there are plenty of examples of money destroying someone’s life. I’m thinking primarily lottery winners. Just because one person successfully adjusted to it doesn’t mean it’s easy and everyone can.
Of course Musk is a special case where he ruins other people’s lives with his wealth but that’s not my point.
Because we all know these good-natured corporations will bear the brunt of this in order to keep prices the same for US consumers.
Actually, aren’t you forgetting that Trump said the foreign countries will be the ones paying these tariffs? Take care not to step out of line with the regime.
