This guy gets it.

He said much of what I've been saying for a while now. And he gets it about this shutdown being more than just playing to the lunatic left for political survival of Schumer and company; if the GOP loses this the Democrats own them and Chuck and Hakeem and the rest know it. And of course the longer the shutdown eats into the wallets of their bought-and-paid-for constituents the angrier they will be at the GOP and more motivated to turn out in the next election.

As th author points out the higher the Democrats raise the temperature the MORE likely is a "fascist" dictatorship; the public will turn to authoritarians who support basic civil order and decency over the marxist revolutionaries. And of course Trump isn't even remotely a fascist or they couldn't say he was one in the first place. You can't call someone a fascist and turn out in the streets and call for violent revolution in a fascist regime.

This is a good essay; do read it all.
