The Senate reached a compromise that will keep the government funded through February 8th. Dueling hashtags emerged on Twitter in the aftermath of the government shutdown. Browder discusses #SchumerShutdown vs. #TrumpShutdown, and what the phenomenon says about political branding in the era of social media.
