As I read some sobering and thoughtful posts about the anniversary of yesterday, I couldn’t help but wonder if the chaos was deliberately extended to drive the out of the news. The dynamics haven’t fundamentally changed since the beginning of this debacle, but the drama peaked yesterday and resolved first thing in the morning Jan 7th. That sure worked out for… all the same people involved in this standoff. Hmm.

Keep in mind that the Democrats were the ones extending the drama.

Had they not voted the way they did the whole thing would have been resolved days earlier with the 200 to 20 vote.

I'm not saying anything about why the Democrats chose their voting strategy, I'm only pointing out that they had the ability to end this at any point and they chose not to.
