Almost as many Republicans as Democrats work in federal government

[Yosemito]

Trump bragged about the shutdown being awesome because federal workers are Democrats, but...

44% are Democrats/Leaners
40% are Republicans/Leaners

2. Our president is a damn fool and a compulsive liar. Why do so many Americans still have such a

hard time figuring out what's going on with this ass in the White House.

4. You have to understand conservatives

The Federal government is no longer the exclusive dominion of whites and Christians, so conservatives hate it (because it has power and their race and religion no longer control it).

It's really that simple.

Some asshole conservative co-workers of mine were cheering on the shutdown. They HATE the government.

5. The administration just announced a federal pay freeze through 2019.

I'm always amused at how Trump's supporters "hate" the federal government,
just plain hate it, root of all evil, blah, blah, blah. Then it affects THEM, personally.
And they've got to go through the contortion of explaining why it's not their boys fault.
Idiots.

6. I was wondering about that shite from the Russian Asset.

trump is NOT "our president". He's an idiotic Siberian plant.

7. I'd like to see a further breakdown of this Democrat and...

...Republican dichotomy. Do the Repubs work for the Department of Defense,
Border Patrol, ICE, Homeland Security and the like, and the Dems for Department
of the Interior, Forest Service, EPA, National Parks Service and the like?
