Yes but, Schumer saved you from getting hosed biggly,
Sure you could have shut it down, but in a week or two
when people are missing checks and such they'll be screaming
for you to re-0pen it, but you need Republican votes for that and
they're going to give you one objectionable bill after another to
reopen it and you're going to have to reject them. They'll make
big of your rejections and you'll look like the bad guy. Eventually
you'll have had enough and you'll have to take whatever bill they
give you to open back up, nice try but, on top of what Trump
will do with the emergency powers the shutdown gives him, you
will lose so badly you'll be weeping and gnashing your teeth.
You would have "caught a tiger by the tail", Schumer saw it
because of his long experience with shutdowns.
