Democrats' BOTCHED Government Shutdown W/ David Dayen
From the show
Description
Executive editor of the American Prospect, David Dayen, returns to Bad Faith to explain the government shut down, and how Democrats are doing their darnedest to be the worst resistance party in the world to Briahna Joy Gray. How is it that Trump seems to have infinite power when Biden, during his trifecta, had none? Did Trump really just do what we were told is impossible: overrule the parliamentarian? Why are Democrats making this a fight about healthcare rather than the fact that the GOP has already constructively shut down the government through their DOGE activities? And why should we be very very scared of OMB director Russel Vought?
