How many paychecks would you give up to hurt Trump?

I know everyone is pissed at the Senate Dems. Okay? Yeah I get it. But it's a bad deal either way. There are hundreds of thousands of Federal workers. People we NEED. Elon and his DOGE morons are tying to fire people. SO are are all Trump's Ghoulish cabinet Secreataries. But they can't fire everyone. Federal judges are ordering people back to work. Resistance is working.

Now if you shut down the government, everyone gets sent home. Thousands of people going weeks without checks and with NO promise of relief or back pay. The GOP will feel NO pressure to open the Government back up. How long can we watch people suffer? On the hope that MAYBE Trump's numbers will go down. Plus, what little pushback DOGE is getting from the Federal workforce is GONE.

What is our goal here? We want to feel good because "Democrats are fighting?" I don't want anyone using my paycheck as a weapon.
