Unless the government shuts down because they can't pass a budget and voters blame Biden.

Historically, voters have always blamed the ones making extra demands for shutdowns.

Exactly. Republicans will always blame Democrats but voters in the middle (uninformed) will just blame the side going nuts over it.

Look at what Hunter Biden did today. House Republicans were trying to hold him in contempt for not testifying (in private). He showed up at the hearing and offered to testify publicly. Republicans looked like fools. They went nuts.

Those people aren’t paying attention to what’s going on anyway. It’s at a point where people are either informed/informing themselves or their heads are stuck in the sand believing whatever their chosen side/representatives feed them.
