More Americans become angry with travel/airline delays

due to tRump's shutdown. The holidays are approaching and Veteran's Day and Thanksgiving will add to the negative view of the MAGA shutdown. Between SNAP, ACA and air travel the administration shows what and who they care about and it is not the average American citizen.

"That chaos could run into Thanksgiving even if the shutdown ends in the coming days, according to Duffy. Industry groups project a record 31 million passengers traveling in the days leading up to and after the holiday.
