Shutdown or cave in?

The Democrats are going to try to save Mueller through the budget process.  Trump is saying that he wants to shut down the government if he doesn't get a wall.  So what is likely to happen?

If the Democrats dig in, and if Trump digs in, there won't be a budget.  More than likely, there will be a continuing resolution that freezes spending at current levels.

Nobody gets anything.  However, if there is a shutdown, somebody is going to give in.  Usually, it is the GOP.  I think that is what the Democrats are counting on.

Hey, you can be happy, or you can fight.  Most people will take the easy way out, and quit.  I can give an example, but it probably isn't worth mentioning, so I won't.

If Trump is good as his word, and shuts down the government, there's going to be a lot of unhappy people out there.  But what we might find out is that the world won't come to an end, and the lies about that may finally be put to rest.  If Mueller can finally be shit canned, then all the better.  At least, one can hope so.
