Hot Take: Democrats Float Cancelling Super Bowl To Try To End Government Shutdown
They could easily end the government shutdown by simply giving Trump the $5.7 billion he requested, which covers a border barrier, border security, and for detention center operations. Democrats put all sorts of left wing stuff in their updated budget, just give Trump what is a pittance towards the size of the budget. But, no, they want to play this game. They should be careful. Trump is a master level troll. Nancy Pelosi tried to play a game with the State of the Union, and quickly learned that was a bad idea, as her overseas trip was cancelled at the last moment
Democrat Floats Canceling Super Bowl: ‘Would Definitely Lead to the End of the Government Shutdown’
Fox News reports a Democrat lawmaker confirmed that during a meeting of the House Democrat Conference–of which Speaker Nancy Pelosi is the leader–on Thursday morning, discussion of the shutdown’s effects on the Super Bowl caused a ruckus.
“A House Democratic Caucus meeting was roiled Thursday morning after one representative floated the possibility that the ongoing partial federal government shutdown might affect federal authorities’ ability to secure the upcoming Super Bowl,” Fox News’ Chad Pergram and Gregg Re reported.
“That definitely got everyone’s attention,” a Democrat lawmaker told Fox News anonymously.
Another Democrat lawmaker told Fox News anonymously that canceling the Super Bowl “would definitely lead to the end of the government shutdown.”
While nobody in President Donald Trump’s administration–which oversees the collection of government agencies that come together to handle travel, logistics, security, and more for major events like the Super Bowl–is suggesting that the Super Bowl be canceled like Democrats on Capitol Hill are floating, there is definitely concern about the shutdown’s impact on this year’s big game.
The largest segment of viewers for the NFL are Republican. And they have high turnout for elections. So, if you want to piss them off, even though they are still upset with the NFL, go ahead and try and run with this. They won’t be pissed at Trump: they’ll be pissed at Democrats, and you’ll entice them to show up even more for votes. But, the Super Bowl is special, so, now the Dems would also have all the celebs mad, because they can’t go to the game to be seen.
Regardless, it won’t be cancelled, and Democrats would be wise to keep this on the down low, else they learn what other fun things Trump can do to them. Love him or loath him, you have to admit that he does what we’ve been begging Republicans to do for 40 years: fight back.
