Rep. Adam Smith tore into Trump for demanding that Republicans use the nuclear option to reopen the government rather than negotiate with Democrats and do something about all of the people they’re about to knock off of their health care insurance because it’s unaffordable.
Trump took to his social media platform Thursday night and posted this:
Smith was asked about the post by CNN’s Laura Coates, and I think responded perfectly as to why this means Trump and Republicans will own the results of their cruel actions and refusal to negotiate with Democrats.
COATES: We’ve got some breaking news from the president on the shutdown. He is now calling on Senate Republicans, on Truth Social, I believe, to initiate the nuclear option and get rid of the filibuster to reopen the government. What is your reaction?
