Both Democrat and Republican senators dumbfounded by Trump vow to shut down government

The Dems are trying to play politics with trump, but he's not a politician, so their plans dont work.

I hope he does shut it down for a long time, until they do what he says.

Not only is he going to shut it down he's going to

start using the US Military to start arresting democrats

OK, so you hate our constitution's First Amendment.

Come to think of it, what you are proposing sounds a lot like North Korea.

He turned their go-to threat right back on them.

This is hilarious.

Meanwhile Obama sent over 3 billion to George Soros groups of our tax money illegally.

Meanwhile the left is funding these people’s legal bills.

We the people need a wall for our protection and they can’t fund it?

The don’t give two sh&ts about us.

Both Democrat and RINO senators dumbfounded by Trump vow to shut down government

Why don't they just shut it ALL down permanently. We don't need a bunch of lying criminals to tell us how to live.

Meanwhile, you are spewing whataboutisms.

Senior senators on both sides of the aisle where left dumbfounded on Tuesday by President Trump’s fiery threat to partially shut down the government unless he gets the money he wants for a border wall, which is unlikely.

Republican leaders have spent weeks trying to steer the president away from a government shutdown, but all that work went out the window earlier in the day when Trump declared in front of television cameras that he would be “proud” to shut down the government over border security.

“I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down. I’m not going to blame you for it,” Trump said to Schumer and House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.), who was also in the room.

The frank moment left Democratic and Republican leaders stunned.

GOP leaders were left cringing by Trump’s vow to take responsibility for a partial shutdown and his promise not to blame Democrats.

Asked if he had seen the exchange on television, Senate Republican Whip John Cornyn (R-Texas), said, “I did, unfortunately. I wish I didn’t.”

Senate Republican Conference Chairman John Thune (S.D.) threw up his hands when asked about his reaction.

“I heard it was very entertaining television,” he said.

Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Richard Shelby (R-Ala.), who urged the president in a private meeting before Thanksgiving not to shut down federal agencies over the border wall, said he would have handled it differently.

“I’ve never said that myself. I’m always trying to work to fund the government,” he said.

Shelby said Trump’s comments heightening the likelihood of a shutdown.

“I think it’s a step in that direction, obviously, at least [with] the rhetoric,” he said.

Best president ever!!!

They have effectively removed our free speech by calling it hate speech, our litigation by having activist judges on the courts, and most recently, they cancelled our vote with fraud.

Our only option left is blunt force.
