Good grief – Trump took time away from golf and his new ballroom to speak with his colleagues about this country's shutdown?
This is a Trump shutdown and Repubs great him showing how weak they are. Repubs don't care about Americans.
Congress should not get paid and their healthcare benefits need to be stripped!
What of everyone that works just stop paying taxes. Then what?
Trump is actually working together with Putin he might know but actually he most properly not. Trumps goal might be to make sure that oil will be the future energy ( like in Russia and Saudi Arabia) Europe and Ukraine he do not care about – what he cares about is to get as much money possibly out of Europe including Ukraine – He also try to down talk green energy and destroy the green industry. He down talk the Climate change ( Which every normal man on earth know exist and will destroy the earth as a good place to live on for people now and in the future if we don't act ) Trump is a very selfish man that only see the rich life he is living and close his eyes for the people he actually is suppose to support as president. As Americas president he is leading the most powerful nation in the world and therefore he should support and help democracy to survive all places on the earth where such countries want to uphold freedom and democracy. He is suppose to be a kind of police and able to see right from wrong.
He do not support democracy either, he only look for money, and act exactly as he has been brought up as a business man.
Altogether he is a selfish rich business man that utilize his job as president to make good deals ( just as he often say)
He is not a president for the people in us. He is not the world police that should help supporting freedom and democracy in the world.
He is a man that never should have been elected – A huge mistake made by people in US that believed they was going to have a better life.
Let the Senate and Congres be without pay. .
Hold the line, no pork for the Democrats
As Republicans it's fine if the government works on shutdown level forever. People can get a job instead of bumming off the government
Cool more false reports and lies from both sides. Great job.
Then the government will stay closed down. Democrats are sick of all your crap. Give us back Medicaid snap and Obamacare now!!!
RepubliCONS are partying down,
or on vacay somewhere out of town,
while Dems work on a reasonable bargain,
that's phrased in some kind of jargon,
that will be agreeable to the cult of King Clown.
I think we should let them do what they want. They will show their true colors and be voted out 👍😄
Trump wants to return to the gilded age per his words. He is hoping for a depression and he's betting the tariffs will get us there.
Do NOT trust the house Republicans. They have ABSOLUTELY lied time and time again so openly without any guilt or care — no reason to think they are sincere in anything they say.
Mike Johnson is not gathering others together to work for the people. Where's the backbone
BACKBONE! He said. They must be talking about Mike Johnson with no backbone
Now we all know Trump has brain rot, because he is halting billions of dollars in previously approved federal funding to Democratic states where his base lives.
Don't trust the Republicans.
The buck stops with THE PRESIDENT. He could single handedly end the shutdown but chooses not to … that’s what you get from convicted felon taco chump the loser who gave Argentina $20 billion while furloughed workers stand in the food lines … btw since China isn’t buying US soybeans, Argentina gladly sells them to China so American soybean farmers suffer as well … jokes on you maga
To hell with it fighting over giving healthcare to PEOPLE smh
You are a joke. Creating a ballroom when people are not eating.
I left the party today.
Republicans don’t control us.
pedopedopedopedopedopedo
YES NUKE THE FILIBUSTER AND STEAMROLL THE DEMOCRATS!
Both political parties are corrupt.
If the democrats give in to Trump, he will definitely bate and switch. I don’t trust his word one bit.
Please keep it shutdown. Idiots dont want to work
It’s the republicans that need to show some backbone against trump, the Democrats ARE showing backbone in standing up to republican (trump) BS.
Schumer shutdown.
Republicans own the house, the senate, the Supreme Court and the presidency with that big “deal maker guy!’ They also own this shutdown !
Fun fact. The no kings protest was funded and organized by communist parties. Anti american ideologies. Let that sink in.
Let's keep the government shutdown for as long as possible so I can keep enjoying my vacation
All those who are involved with bankrupting our people and our families and our lives because you are refusing to reopen the government based upon arguments and fighting over healthcare coverage for illegal immigrants will not be allowed to continue in office!
Because you’re destroying our own people’s lives because we won’t agree to give foreign immigrants what we ourselves are not given, because we cant afford it ! You are all done in our public offices and done in our country , period!
These are common since matters and if your a public representative, who is mentally unable to see that if we can’t give it to our own people, then we certainly are not able to give it to any others, including foreign immigrants !
Furthermore, we damn sure are not going to give them the last little remaining that we have left for our own emergency purposes… for us, to any foreign immigrants!
Moreover, we damn sure are not taking on the debt associated with giving foreign immigrants what we don’t get, nor have you ignorant traitors! You are a direct threat to the lives, safeties and continued existence, of all the people of the United States of America!
Therefore, they, not us, have put themselves in the position of being extirpated from the face of the earth for acts of Treachery and Perfidy, so dont atart lqbeling us with your Terrorist labels when you are more if a threat to our nation than foreign standing armies!
Your treachery and perfidy are the resultant cause of all this ans the cause of rhe peoples complete loss of any and all hope that anything short of that would only allow the danger and the threat of our people being forced to start speaking another language because we were captured by foreign enemies because we couldn’t pay our people, nor our military servicemen, because a few hundred traitors allowed our government to be shutdown!
All under the guise and because we didn’t accept the liabilities associated with giving to foreign powers for free what we don’t even have ourselves ! Your all going to be hung for what you are doing! Did you hear that? You are all going to be hung for what you have done! Just Like Saddam Hussain and the whole world will witness you hang too!
People are going to strive soon and yes this comes from someone who has two jobs
It doesn't matter, the do nothing Republicans will be voted out during the midterms and all this BS will come to an end.
Where's the backbone of the Republican Party….health care is essential to every American including GOP members. Honor your Oath and responsibilities and stop the blame game especially when saying the Democrats are responsible. Do the job all of you were elected for.
I Have a Feeling this Government Shutdown will last thru the Holidays, including Christmas, Maybe, Just Maybe by January 2026 it will then be Over, We'll See!!
This Thing, WILL Affect the Republicans in November of Next Year, in a BAD Way!!
Instead lets extort the amerian population out of 230 million bucks… the irony of the arguments made by this adminitration are unbelievable.
Trump never cared ( he said it) he just wanted the vote..
