Senate Republicans are grumbling that President Trump undercut their strategy for ending the government shutdown when he said that he’s willing to cut “the right deal” with Democrats on health care.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) scheduled three votes this week on a House-passed bill to reopen the government and keep it funded through Nov. 21 but failed to pick up any additional Democratic votes for the measure.
Some Republican senators worry Trump’s remarks convinced many Democrats the president will eventually make significant concessions.
One Republican senator who requested anonymity to avoid angering Trump said that the president’s comments about being open to a “deal” with Democrats had “muddied” the Republican shutdown strategy.
as someone not allowed to vote not sure why everyone keeps voting for republicans or democrats and expecting better
it is an unsolved mystery
Thanks. It’s always a good reminder that 80% of the people on here are children.
