The only conclusion one can draw is that the Democrats have concluded that it is good politics for them not to allow the Republicans to ‘get a victory’ or the president to ‘get a victory’ in the middle of a political season.

It’s a great message. I like the message. But it shouldn’t be paid for with taxpayer dollars.

I worry about that, for sure.
