Trump is playing them bigly! He knows they will get the blame for the shutdown and the majority of the American people are on his side!
I’d love to see the look on Chuckles face when he saw the press in there recording the entire meeting !
What ‘blame’ for the ‘shutdown’? We have about 7 times the goobermint we need, so shedding 30% of 10% or whatever is no more than a good start [barely].
