People should call the WH and leave messages that our government must reopen NOW!
Unlike shutdowns in some previous administrations, the Trump administration was leaving parks open to visitors despite the staff furloughs
This is stunningly irresponsible
Yes it is. Someone is liable to get hurt or killed and serious damage could be done to our national heritage.
As if there was ever any doubt that everything Trump touches becomes a shitshow and eventually dies…
Betcha it isn’t Civil War enthusiasts leaving messes at the Civil War NMPs.
When the people at the very top clearly demonstrate they don’t believe in rules or the law and that loyalty to one’s country is only optional, that becomes a signal to everyone that it’s not the law that matters, but what you can get away with. So knock yourself out if it makes you feel good. To hell with protecting our nation’s natural resources or other people’s rights to enjoy the same.
I’m just glad it’s the middle of winter which will keep some people away.
Well, they should, but, of course, there is no one to answer the phones and the voicemail is full.
Hey, government workers have expenses and are living paycheck to paycheck, but consider this: Donnie is living bankruptcy to bankruptcy. Have a heart! He’s sufferin’ too! He’s a victim too!!!
They always pick the most dickish way possible.
It’s not Trump’s government to shut down. It does not belong to him.
Could even be intentional. “Unlike shutdowns in some previous administrations, the Trump administration was leaving parks open to visitors despite the staff furloughs.”
Operation Alberich, except conducted on the homeland.
Extraction will commence shortly.
His incompetence is boundless, he can’t even manage a shutdown. After impeachment I would like to see him picking up trash along the roadside starting in the National Parks.
I’m pretty sure that tRumpleThinSkin and his crime family have never set foot in a national park so why would they care other than Don the Con Jr. wanting to go shoot the wildlife.
My guess is Trump will want to monetize the reopening of the parks by sending some of his undocumented workers from South Florida and New Jersey to conduct the clean up.
When you think of it the peak years for litter were during the period Trump and his cult pines for; the 50’s and the non hippie parts of the 60’s. When the interstate highway system was constructed and almost completed you had a lot of people just toss litter out of cars with abandon; well because they felt like it. Little Timmy in the back seat tossing trash out the window with the approval of the boufant coffered, pill box wearing hat mom. Same with people tossing cigarettes and cigars out of their windows. A lot of highways and byways started to look kind of rancid.
Then Lady Bird Johnson and others instituted the Keep America Beautiful campaign along with one of the most effective PSA’s ever produced, "The crying Indian"and the problem subsided due to good old fashion moral suasion.
Funny thing about a witch hunt, they usually end by finding some witches.
