What do you think would trigger such a gov't shutdown?
New prediction: GH will be right about me being wrong about a government shutdown.
Sure am glad I didn't abuse my power and delete that prediction after the fact. It probably helped Democrats that Trump was out there everyday basically begging to take all the blame for it.Green Habit wrote:I was dead wrong on being skeptical of your prediction, which means you were also dead wrong on me being right about you being wrong.4/5 wrote:Yeah, that's true.

I'm surprised and impressed that House Democrats held their own on that shutdown. It had to be uncomfortable to them to see what was happening when it was going on, but it looks like their supporters are willing to tolerate it more than I thought. The flight attendants' union coming up with an assist also helped.

Excellent literary reference.Simple Torture wrote:I want to look at the order of the primaries again before I decide. Anyone who makes a prediction after the first debate is a buster; we should cap predictions for that at like May 1st.
