Lol there’s no such thing as a govt shutdown.

The US government could be headed for a shutdown. Here’s what that may look like.
If a shutdown begins to drag out, the bite could begin to be directly felt on Monday morning at the beginning of the workweek.
Many of America's more than 2 million federal employees (and another 2 million military personnel) could either find themselves furloughed, working without pay, or simply dealing with shutdown-related disruptions.
The effects would be felt by individuals but also many businesses that rely on the government on a day-to-day basis.
At the same time, wide swaths of the government are set to be largely unaffected — notably Social Security and Medicare.

Closed: Everything from the national memorials to taxpayer assistance

Many areas of possible disruption, from airports to the presidential transition of power
The military, TSA, IRS, etc? Sure sounds like parts of the government could be shut down or do you expect all to work despite no paychecks?
Disrupting holiday travel? If it happens, how will trump/Republicans biden/Democrats blame the other?
