On a Potential Government Shutdown

What people have to realize (and they certainly won't get this information from CNN) is that 75% of the government has already been funded (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/dec/19/us-government-shutdown-explainer-what-is-it-will-it-happen-and-whos-to-blame) and so those parts won't be shutdown, and even of the parts that haven't been funded a large chunk of those are deemed "essential"  and wouldn't be shut down, either. So, yeah, we're looking at somewhere between 15 to 20% of the government being shut down and if CNN wants to paint that as some sort of Trump-induced apocalypse......I guess. They just look like morons, that's all.
