Is there a Republican Strategy for the Shutdown? S4E212 10.28.2025
Today our question is from Ollie, who lives in Memphis, TN, and Ollie asks Well, here we are, over 3 weeks into the government shutdown, with no end in sight. I’ve tried to look at this from the Republican side. I know the panel always promotes that political action is usually motivated by a positive calculation, but I admit I can’t see how this benefits the Republicans. Can you shed some light or insight on what benefits the Republicans think they might get from this shutdown? I admit I’m totally in the dark.
