Does the president own all shutdowns, or only when the president is a republican? Aren't the house democrats playing a role in this?

Repubs are fed up with Nancy and her zero stance period

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

It will end when terrorists get the idea, this is the time to really get that one big hit they haven't had in so long, when our defenses are down.
The other scenario this ends, is when enough republicans defect the Trump camp as their 2020 re-election chances are starting to get to odds they don't like.
Trump is learning he's not the only one capable of playing hard ball and it's got to be making him nuts. It sucks for the government workers being held hostage, it sucks that this shutdown will in fact have a really bad impact on the economy, it's not a matter of if now, just to what extent. These career politicians all suck and Trump has shown that a fu*k up real estate (bankruptcy expert) tycoon isn't any better for America.
The calls from their constituents are likely starting to ring off the hook, eventually those will start to have an impact as well.

Not just terrorists you have to worry about Bob
Evil thrives in chaos
Secure the border and end the chaos seems simple enough to me but our government is acting like children especially Democrats and their like.

Trump last week: I’ll own the shutdown.
Or
Trump says he would be 'proud' to shut down the government over border wall funding
He clearly owns it .. you can’t blame that away

When a Republican does it on purpose, it’s his fault
I guarantee you Democrats have caused shutdowns but you asked who caused the last one
