New in PN: Dems are winning the shutdown

"If Republicans are on board with Trump’s effort to become a dictator, there’s not much point in negotiating. You might as well force them to own their priorities, including hugely increasing healthcare costs, then use it against them on the campaign trail."

Republicans, meanwhile, are bumbling and stumbling.

It was a beautiful Sunday in Portland. Farmer’s markets, the Portland Marathon, peaceful protests, and some views of Mt. Hood. This city is vibrant, peaceful, and resilient. We do not need a federal occupation, and we sure as hell don’t want one.

Trump mostly now is the hateful figurehead of the GOP/White House (when he hasn't disappeared from public view, since we haven't seen him since Tuesday). He apparently is outsourcing crucial decisions and policy to even more hateful ideologues like Miller and Vought. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
