So if Trump succeeds in shutting down the government

[dflprincess]

does that mean Mueller's investigation will be shut down until a funding bill is passed? And is this his real motive for making his demand that his wall get funded?

1. No.

Most of government keeps going during government "shutdowns". People keep getting their social security checks, the military keeps going and almost all of law enforcement activities keep going. A government shutdown means maybe 10-15% of government actually gets suspended.

2. Thank you.

Now I can sleep tonight - though it sucks how the most vulnerable will be the only one hurt if this happens agains.
