Confederates Mitch McConnell, Donald Trump, and Paul Ryan.

This says it all.

President Donald Trump—with the quiet, but strong support of congressional Republican leaders—has rejected the lone bipartisan proposal on the table to address the expiring Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. Republicans fully plan to move forward on a short-term funding bill without a DACA deal or resolution.

"With the quiet but strong support of congressional Republican leaders." That would be House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. That's following Trump's racist outburst, after a weekend in which the entire national media (except Fox) was focused on the fact that the president of the United States is a racist.

They are fully prepared to shut down the government in order to keep people from "shithole" countries out of the country. And they think they can blame it on the Democrats.

Nope.
