DAY 9: Democrats Continue Government Shutdown In Order to Hurt the American People

Rational Americans agree, why shutdown the government? The House passed a clean continuing resolution, the same CR that Democrats have voted for thirteen times in the last four years, including back in March.

So what’s the point? The point is to hurt Americans. Trump has made things better for every American (except terrorists and America’s worst domestic enemies). His transformational presidency, surging economy and pro-America foreign policy has moved the country even further right. Going into the November elections, this bodes most ill for the Democrats. So the Democrat ‘strategy’ is to hurt Americans hoping they’ll blame Trump and vote accordingly. These are the actions of evil actors whose aim is to destroy the country.

So far, most Americans have barely noticed. But air travel is beginning to suffer from the Democrat shutdown. And Democrats couldn’t be happier. Fruits of the Schumer Shutdown.

What’s happening: Air traffic controllers are considered essential employees. They are obligated to continue working during a shutdown. Conveniently, a growing number of them are calling in sick.

ABC News: A week into the government shutdown, flight delays and cancellations are starting to climb as sick calls involving air traffic controllers leave a number of airport towers and control facilities without enough staff to properly handle all flights. The air traffic control tower overseeing airspace over Nashville International Airport was operating at an extremely limited amount of staffing on Tuesday, forcing some approach traffic to be handled by the air traffic control center in Memphis, Tennessee (ABC News).

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy: Our dedicated air traffic controllers shouldn’t be worrying about their next paycheck and travelers across this country shouldn’t have to worry about delays and cancellations because of the SCHUMER-JEFFRIES Shutdown (Duffy).
