Remember trumps own words—if the country shuts down its the presidents fault

This is the worst administration in american history.

Truth sharer 9191 :

Thank you for reporting on this!

lo_fsho :

TO BE CLEAR: THIS IS NOT ON DEMS. Republicans have the House, Senate and Presidency and they are literally missing in action. This is on Republicans, and the media needs to report it as such.

pilot92510 :

Let it shutdown. Congress has only worked 46% since January. We don’t need them.

Why does he always blame democrats when there is bad people on both sides

RachelSkull 🇺🇸🆘 :

stop paying them wages with our taxes!!

Treasure :

Um that 7 week BS isn’t being signed by the dems because a lot of stuff was snuck in to make that proposal even worse than what is officially on the table for the vote right now. (For example, they further targeted trans and gender affirming care and hospitals that offer it even for adults) Then the republicans didn’t even show up and cancelled the vote, so it didn’t matter.

Why does it seem like we’re always on the brink of a government shutdown 😭

Nicky :

Trump is refusing to work with the other political party..He's referring to Democrats as enemy within. This is not about politics.

jmommy1974 :

This is 100% on Dems.

swoosieq :

They said repeatedly at their rallies and even in the house that they would not touch medicaid.

Billie-the-Aussie :

Federal contractors are allowed to work (if there’s work to be done) and keep getting paid because their contracts are separate from this

kwyjibo :

DEMS stand strong for the majority of the US!!! Don’t stop fighting for us WE THE People got you in the mid terms. We as a people need to come out in DROVES, vote to get our power back!
