    Unless the government shuts down because they can’t pass a budget and voters blame Biden.

        Exactly. Republicans will always blame Democrats but voters in the middle (uninformed) will just blame the side going nuts over it.

        Look at what Hunter Biden did today. House Republicans were trying to hold him in contempt for not testifying (in private). He showed up at the hearing and offered to testify publicly. Republicans looked like fools. They went nuts.
