This is exactly it. Shutdowns are not popular, if they shutdown the gov before the election it is going to cost them significant votes. They are already worried about the impact of Trump on down ballot candidates, a shutdown will almost certainly cost them seats. This is MTG expressing her panic because she realizes how stupid the GOP is behaving with an election about to happen.
What surprises me the most is that out of all the Republicans, it's her that realizes how stupid this is.
Of course she does.
She's terrified that if the Dems take the House back, she'll lose her committee seats again. Like all small-government advocates, she wants power.
Ah, thank you. Considering what a shithole "safe"-ly red district she represents, I didn't think she had any particular reason to care even with vote losses from a shutdown.
She was told to do this. There is no realization.
