President Trump has told Democratic leaders exactly what they needed here as they hold the government hostage and threaten to shut it down altogether: go to h*ll. Moreover, Trump revealed that they essentially want to reverse his entire agenda to keep the government open
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the US Senate on Friday rejected two measures to fund the government as a shutdown loomed. Both measures needed 60 votes to pass.
The Senate rejected a Trump-backed House-passed stopgap bill 44-48 and blocked a Democrat version 47-45. The Trump-backed stopgap bill would have funded the government until November 21.
Following the vote, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries blamed Republicans and Trump for the looming shutdown. They also demanded a meeting with Trump.
