I don’t think Trump is being radical enough here. The Congress, Republicans and Democrats alike, are not willing to work with this President and they are not willing to take their cues from the American people in terms of the agenda. Trump needs to say, “I won’t sign a continuing resolution, pass a budget”. If the government shuts down, he needs to go golfing, or talk trade or whatever he can do while it’s shut down. Get on tv every day and urge Congress to pass a budget within the framework that they’ve outlined. Learn to get along guys, pass a budget, it’s your job!
I agree, government shut down is Donald Trump’s most important ‘trump card’.
