Trump has been itching to shut down the government ever since he was elected or so I suspect. It’s his idea of being “tough” and is now tied to his mushroom shaped manhood. Moreover, he doesn’t know how to say yes even when offered a good deal. Worst negotiator ever.
This is Trump’s THIRD shutdown of our government, not first time, 3rd time in 2 years.
Please read the article: this is the 3rd Trump shutdown: “There seems to be no end in sight for the current partial government shutdown, the third since the beginning of the Trump administration.”
In the Trump Badministration, health care is adversely affected whether the guvmint is shut down or not…
Funnily enough , politicians are not AFFECTED ; THEY are subsidised by the taxpayer .
