Why is a government shutdown that was created by the president because he is a vicious moron inspiring people to demand that we stop paying Congress for the duration?

You shouldn't punish a kid for refusing to stand up to a bully. But these are elected representatives and they're the only people in America with the power to stand up to the bully. It's not fair, but it's not completely unfair either. If they think standing up to the bully isn't worth the trouble, they can feel the consequences too.
