Unfortunately, Trump is not just hammering his own head. He is taking hostages. He said HE would shut down the government, HE would be the one to do it. HE would take the “mantle” of the shutdown and would not blame Democrats.
And he did. Republicans and Democrats had a deal. Trump agreed to it. Mitch McConnell confidently announced there would be no shutdown, and the senate passed the agreed-upon deal UNANIMOUSLY by voice vote.
Then Trump did what he said he would (for once). He shut down the government. He took his hostages. He “took the mantle” of the shutdown which HE OWNS. And now he wants to (as usual) break his word and blame the Democrats.
He is hammering the heads of 800,000 federal employees not being paid, causing all of THEM to have the bumps on their heads, as well as all their families, all the private sector federal contractors and the other businesses that serve federal employees that are losing money they will never get back.
We are all going to suffer. Trump whines about gangs like MS-13 and terrorists entering the country, yet FBI agents are not being paid and can not buy the supplies they need to protect us from terrorists and gangs,
