Unable to impeach the president, the anti-Trumpers would love to see a government shut-down blamed on President Trump on the anniversary of his first term, going into the mid-term elections. The tea leaves certainly suggest we will see a (partial) government shutdown, purely to make a political statement, as of midnight January 19, 2018.
Time for a poll. If we see a government shutdown on Friday, it will last:
- through the weekend
- one full week
- two weeks
- longer than two weeks
- other

2017: the year that the mainstream media went to war with a newly-elected, popular president. At the end of the day, the most used phrase in 2017: "fake news."
A big "thank you" to a reader for spotting this article. Just in time for the poll and supports my feeling that the president's first year will be capped by a (partial) government shutdown which will occur over the weekend, which begs the question: "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"
I think we will have an answer to that story a week from now, next Tuesday, January 23, 2018.
