The shutdown is a sort of self inflicted punishment. However, y'all call for a new election to determine who will run the government (New PM). The folks laid off (Furloughed) are considered Non-essential. (not servicing critical services) Sort of disagreeing on the rules of a ball game, and the owner of the ball takes his/her ball and goes home.
This supposedly creates some sort of political pressure by one side or the other.
Meanwhile President
Trumplethinskin will try to show them all up by conceding some point or maybe two, that one side or the other, perhaps both is trying to demand!
....
He will claim victory and deal making success!
Who knows if anyone won, there is no real score.
A participation trophy will be internally presented.
