    It's bad buisness when large segments of "post-shutdown" population start camping out at the white house, homeless and hungry.

    Any president that conveys the us as a 3rd world country will forever be remembered poorly. It might even be too late as it is.

    But back to the point... Still ordering and when it comes it comes thnx irg.

    Define "sooner".

    Been 32 days now. The end to this shutdown is nowhere in sight. If anything, it seems farther than it was when it started. In a normal democracy, an election or a referendum would be the solution, but no such thing in the US system for the next 2 years.

    I wouldn't be surprised if it lasts until the summer. It'll be a complete mess by then.

    I'm going to say latest, March. It would be terrible if it went as long as Summer... I've got a Glock 26 ordered, but can wait. I feel for those not getting paid.

    I think earliest is march. I don't consider that soon though. That would be another 2-4 paychecks missing for workers, and huge consequences on a lot of things. Can you just imagine the backlog at state and commerce for everything that needs an export licence? Crazy, but that's just the tip of the iceberg.

    The fact that it would be terrible if it goes as long as this summer seems very inconsequential. It is already terrible imho.

    For 3 weeks.
    Watched a video of Trump address this afternoon. He looks and sounds defeated. I wonder how he was made or why he decided to go along this 3 week opening.
