#TrumpShutDown Tick, tick, boom

IN A chaotic close to President Donald Trump’s first year as president, the US government has careened into an embarrassing shutdown.

The fact is, you can’t negotiate with someone so feckless and undisciplined (let alone ignorant and unqualified). And the funny thing is his own party knows it as well as we do.

Per Dem @SenBlumenthal :
"There was virtually a deal, a comprehensive agreement between Chuck Schumer & the president, and he walked away from it after he talked to his hard right."

Let's not forget that Trump already signaled that he wants a government shutdown.

either elect more Republican Senators in 2018 or change the rules now to 51%. Our country needs a good "shutdown" in September to fix mess!

“[Donald Trump] took a physical last Friday, and today we got the results from his doctor, Ronny Jackson. Right off the bat, the doctor broke big news: ‘The heart exam was normal.’ So, despite all evidence, Donald Trump does have a heart.”

Clips of several news hosts looking at the camera perplexed and all asking the same question: “Is Donald Trump a racist?”

Samantha Bee: It’s like Maya Angelou once said, “When someone tells you who they are, ignore it, elect them president, and then spend 24 hours a day asking each other if you believe what they told you about themselves.”
