This is why I don't watch Katy Tur
Discussing the budget "negotiations" jus t now, she said the republicans are making a bet that if the government shuts down and they fire all these people, the Dems will get the blame. The guest, David Drucker said "That's a good bet."
Okay then. There is literally no history or logic to support that. The administration is obviously very fearful of this situation and the purpose of the threats they are making is to shield themselves from blame. Hakeen Jeffries has already pointed out that this administration started by firing people (DOGE) and never stopped, so this will just be them doing what they do. Why should Dems be blamed for that?
Of course if the corporate media reported the facts and gave the Dems equal time, the Dems would not be blamed. But Tur, Drucker, and their ilk are determined that that not happen. So we are being treated to narrative setting 101. Just keep repeating that Dems will be blamed. Over and over and over.

He's a lifelong republican. He said that his Repub friends weren't happy with Trump, but they ignore it because their stock portfolio was doing well.
