Sorry for a repeat post. I was in such a rush.

Here is an explanation why Republicans CR is worse than a government shutdown..

1. During a Shutdown: The President (via the executive branch) decides which government functions are "essential" and continue operating. This gives the administration leverage over short-term government operations, but it doesn't create new spending power-only the power to withhold services.
2. Under the CR (Without Earmarks): By stripping earmarks, the CR gives the executive branch more control over how existing funds are allocated. Without specific congressional directives, Trump (or his budget office) would have more flexibility in deciding where the money actually goes. That means entire programs or initiatives that Congress previously funded through earmarks could be deprioritized or defunded administratively.
