The government is shut down.
So Conservatives can't even govern.
What good are they, then?

its closed down idiot
A quarter of the government has been shut down for two weeks. What about the rest? What about the president? No need to lie, especially in a thread about lying.

Like the old SNL skit of a drunk Nixon talking to paintings. Nice.

You just said "governing", and now you're moving the bar on what "governing" means.
If the government is shut down, then they're not governing, are they?
I was talking about the president, you're talking about the government. You moved the bar.
GOALPOST SHIFT!
You simply redefine the parameters of the conversation, post-hoc.
You didn't say "trump", you merely said "governing".
So did you say that deliberately to keep it vague enough to wiggle around within the parameters so you can save face? Cuz that's what it looks like, bruh.
You asked a question I answered it, and you thought, wrongly, I was speaking about the government. You're lying. Not only that, but you lied when you said the government is shutdown. It's a partial shutdown, and only about a quarter of the government is shutdown.
But I suppose you wouldn't have any standards if it wasn't for your double standards.
If the full government is not open, then you're not fully governing, are you?
There go your goalposts again. Let's just remove the goalpoasts altogether and you can kick the ball into the sky if you so choose.
No, you're confused.
You're the one moving goalposts.
When you said that they are governing, they're actually not. Then you had to move the goalposts and say, 'well, 1/4 of the government is shut down".
Well, that means that they're not governing, then.
Again, I was speaking of Trump. You know, the topic of this thread? I never said "they are governing". No reason to lie here, especially in a thread about lying. It was you who brought up the government.
Well, our government has three branches, not one, and Trump can't govern without the checks and balances from the Legislature and/or the courts. In fact, that's precisely why our government is shut down.
And no, you weren't speaking of Trump. You're just moving those goalposts, post-hoc.
I was speaking of Trump. But your lie-a-thon is off to a great start.
