Counselor to @SecScottBessent @Lavorgnanomics: “The problem with this shutdown is that the Democrats have voted for 13 clean continuing resolutions in the past, and therefore, the government should be open. This is squarely on the Democrats’ shoulders. I hope it doesn’t last as long as 35 days. We’ll see what happens. Fortunately, we’ve got men and women in the armed services, law enforcement, and others who will be working. The country will be protected. But it’s a sad situation. As Senator Fetterman alluded to, it shouldn’t be a partisan issue. We’ll see where it goes.”
