Christmas Crash, Redux

In 2018 Congress failed to pass a budget and the US Gov't was shutdown. A monster dump ensued.

Now comes Congress unable even to elect a Speaker.
incompetence abounds. Expect the worst.

Trend is Down. Trend continues until the End at the Bend.

Comment:

Many comments noted, "this can't happen" and "this won't happen" "they would never let it happen" etc etc.

I never said it would, only that it could and you ought to be ready if it does.
The numbskulls did it before. Can do again.
If the budget passes, Santa might visit after all.
