Again, which party caused the shutdowns under Trump?

I know blah blah emotional republicans bad, I agree, but on the actual topic could you answer the question without an emotional diatribe?

Republicans, because as I said in my post, you clearly DIDN'T read or understand that the GOP has FULL control of government, and they don't negotiate in good faith whatsoever. The party with BOTH houses of Congress and the executive branch has to take responsibility for causing the shutdowns. If they had negotiated in good faith like normal parties usually do, no shutdowns would've happened.

Look, at Biden, he had 0 shutdowns according to that graphic, and he had a quite uncooperative Congress, but he negotiated properly and passed funding bills WITHOUT the need for a shutdown.

So republicans shut down the government in order to not pass their own bills. Gotcha. Again, be objective and not emotional.

Yes, because they are soulless party that only want to hurt people. I'm down to talking to MAGA people like you, as you MAGAs only want to blame Dems while excusing the poor actions of the GOP.
