“The longest government shutdown ever may finally be over, but the Democratic Party is just beginning to reckon with angry voters who are sick and tired of seeing them lose to President Donald Trump,” the HuffPost reports.
“The anger is clearly reminiscent of the disillusion Republicans faced during the Tea Party era a decade ago, though it’s too soon to tell what it will mean for the party’s electoral chances. As mad as voters may be with Democrats, they’re even more angry at Trump, a dynamic that helped the party notch big victories in Virginia and New Jersey earlier this month. However, in the short term, the ongoing discontent could lead to another government shutdown early next year.”
