Trump Promises to Work with ‘Radical Left Democrats’ on ‘the Things They Want to Destroy’"},"content":{"rendered":"

The Trump Shutdown is now ten days old, and there is no hint of any resolution on the horizon. What there is are incessant lies by Donald Trump and his MAGA cronies who are trying to blame the shutdown on Democrats who have no control over any branch of the government.<\/p>\n

The only reason that the shutdown continues is that Republicans have steadfastly refused to engage in any negotiations with Democrats. That’s because 1) Republicans are terrified of the prospect of having to vote on releasing the Trump-riddled Epstein files, and 2) the GOP is dead set against allowing any compromise that would prevent healthcare costs from skyrocketing as a result of their brutal funding cuts and hatred of migrants, and the thought that they might receive life-saving care in an emergency.<\/p>\n

That’s why after a week and a half Trump is posting bizarre rants on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong>, seeking to shift blame for the shutdown on Democrats. Like his arguments on almost any subject, they are entirely devoid of logic, which he replaces with anger and insults. On Saturday morning he raged<\/a><\/strong> that…<\/p>\n

“Chuck Schumer recently said, ‘Every day gets better’ during their Radical Left Shutdown. I DISAGREE! If nothing is done, because of ‘Leader’ Chuck Schumer and the Democrats, our Brave Troops will miss the paychecks they are rightfully due on October 15th. […] The Radical Left Democrats should OPEN THE GOVERNMENT, and then we can work together to address Healthcare, and many other things that they want to destroy.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Of course, Trump is being deliberately dishonest with his reference to Schumer saying “Every day gets better.”<\/em> Schumer was explicitly referring to the fact that the public is increasingly siding with Democrats against Trump and the GOP<\/a><\/strong>. The people recognize that it is the responsibility of the majority party in Congress to shape a compromise on a budget bill that will pass. Democrats have no power to do that.<\/p>\n

Trump puts a spotlight on the Republicans’ refusal to negotiate by adding that he is only willing to “work together”<\/em> with the “Radical Left Democrats”<\/em> on “things that they want to destroy.”<\/em> WTF does that even mean? Is Trump saying that he is amenable to destroying things in concert with Democrats? Why would he do that? Democrats, of course, don’t want to do that.<\/p>\n

This is entirely a Trump thing, It’s obvious that he is just spewing noxious nonsense as a way of avoiding doing the work that the people expect from a president and their representatives in Congress. And contrary to Trump’s limp demand, Democrats cannot “OPEN THE GOVERNMENT.”<\/em> Especially when the Republican leaders in Congress refuse to even come to work.<\/p>\n

Trump also said that he’s directing his Secretary of “War,”<\/em> Pete Hegseth, to “use all available funds to get our Troops PAID.”<\/em> But he doesn’t say from where he would get these funds during a government shutdown. He also accuses Democrats of holding the nation hostage, which is, of course, what Trump and the GOP are doing. But at least he admits that the shutdown is “dangerous.”<\/em> Previously he has been celebrating it as an opportunity to fire government workers. But only the Democratic ones.<\/p>\n

It’s telling that the guy who pretends to have written a book on “The Art of the Deal,”<\/em> is so pathetically incapable of making any deals. If Trump thinks that insulting Democrats as “radical,”<\/em> and offering to work with them to “destroy”<\/em> things is going to lead to them making a deal, he is even more deranged that we thought. And that’s really saying something.<\/p>\n
