OMB tells federal agencies to prepare for shutdown washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost… #TrumpShutdown #GOPTaxScam #ShitholeGOP

The #GOPShutdown on the heels of the #GOPTaxScam reminds me of drug addicts who blow their entire check on a binge on the 1st of the month, then don’t have any money left to pay their rent or bills.

That awkward moment when you got elected on promises to shut the Black POTUS’ government down and drown it in a bathtub, but now that it’s finally your turn to govern, you can’t because you’re drowning. #TrumpShutdown

Maybe y’all wouldn’t be struggling so damn hard to keep the government open if you hadn’t just looted the treasury to give tax cuts to mega rich people who don’t fucking need them, @GOP. Did you ever stop to think about that, or nah?! 🤷🏾‍♀️

Also the MSM is full of shit per usual, because I distinctly remember them sensationalizing the Teahadists who wanted nothing more than to defund every government agency they could name in 2009-10. Stop feigning shock that the idiots you aided/abetted are really doing this shit.

The MSM won’t tell you this, but today’s @GOP is too racist and ignorant to run the government properly. They can’t govern a nation that isn’t Whites only, and will destroy it from the inside out before they’ll ever share it with folk they hate.

Never forget that Trump and the @GOP exploited the bigotry, jingoism and xenophobia of the Republican base to gin up support for their anti-immigrant, White Nationalist and austere agenda.

The @GOP fears no major consequences or backlash from their diehard supporters for shutting the government down, b/c they’ve convinced them that doing so is the antidote to integration, inclusion, and equality for 50 yrs.

It matters not that the vast majority of folk receiving government assistance are White Americans, @GOP voters have been brainwashed to believe that they’re only sticking it to people of color by starving and stealing from the treasury.

I’ve said it before and I’m gonna keep saying it over and over again, racism is the enemy of functional government and until we stop sending the racist GOP to DC, none of this bullshit will change.

Understand that the ~30% of America that still approves of Donald Trump knew good and damn well he was a crook, they just didn’t mind because they foolishly thought he’d only steal from people of color. They elected him to Make America White Again.

The Republican base elected Trump and the GOP for the sole purpose of denying non-White people citizenship and the right to vote. They’ve been taught to believe their economic woes have been caused by diversity and will be solved by apartheid. They can’t be convinced otherwise.

Rather than tell the truth about the racist motivations underneath the “economic anxiety” of the White working class, the American MSM peddled the GOP’s Southern Strategy propaganda and willfully paved the way for this corrupt/dysfunctional government, and the #TrumpShutdown.

They exalted the ideology of racist, sexist, ignorant White Americans who were too hateful to appreciate President Obama’s economic recovery, and sold our country to the highest bidder for the sake of ratings and ad revenue. They built this shit.

They couldn’t be bothered to listen to or amplify the voices of Black and Latina women who warned the world that Trump would rob us blind and rip our families apart for sport. They spent all their time getting high on Hillary’s emails and broadcasting the GOP’s Klan rallies.

Maybe if the American press and cable news outlets weren’t so preoccupied with propagandizing their predominantly White audience, we wouldn’t so routinely be suffering the consequences of their miseducation. That’s how you know this shit is intentional.

We are experiencing this tragic moment in American history because rapid demographic change is underway and multiculturalism is wrestling power away from White male supremacy’s hands. Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying and wishful thinking.

He showed us who he was and what he would do. The GOP and its voters believed him wholeheartedly and are getting exactly what they voted for, it’s way too late for them to backtrack now. #TrumpShutdown
