Trump reverses, says Dems to blame for shutdown
tulc(wonders who didn't see this coming?)Trump in a televised Oval Office meeting last week with Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi(D-Calif.) said that he would own any shutdown over border security.
“I am proud to shut down the government for border security,” Trump told the Democratic leaders. “I will take the mantle. I will shut it down, I’m not going to blame you for it.”
The president is now attempting to shift blame to Democrats less than 24 hours before parts of the government would shutdown at midnight Friday.
