Republicans finally have a way to win this government shutdown fight

 The U. S. government is at risk of shutting down next Friday unless Congress takes action. This familiar situation often results in a spending bill filled with unnecessary extras, but a new approach is being proposed.

• Donald Trump is advocating for a clean continuing resolution (CR) to fund the government without additional spending, while also reducing federal bureaucracy. House Speaker Mike Johnson supports this idea, aiming to present a CR on the floor soon.

• Democrats oppose this plan and refuse to support it, opting for a shutdown to potentially damage Trump's reputation, not realizing it could backfire.

• If the CR fails, non-essential federal employees will be furloughed, while essential employees will continue working but experience delayed paychecks.

• Past shutdowns have seen dramatic closures, but changes in management could prevent significant services from being affected this time.

• Trump's recent executive order directs agencies to eliminate non-essential roles, but some judges are blocking these layoffs, showing resistance to smaller government.

• A funding lapse could prevent non-essential workers from returning, allowing for congressional and judicial examination of executive power.

• While a shutdown is risky and may not play out as Democrats hope, passing a clean CR could be beneficial for both parties.

Facing a possible shutdown, both parties need to consider a straightforward funding resolution to avoid chaos and political fallout.
