President Donald Trump on Sunday morning, Jan. 21, suggested a “nuclear option” in dealing with the government shutdown, which has lasted the weekend.
“Great to see how hard Republicans are fighting for our Military and Safety at the Border. The Dems just want illegal immigrants to pour into our nation unchecked. If stalemate continues, Republicans should go to 51% (Nuclear Option) and vote on real, long-term budget, no C.R.’s!” the president tweeted at 4:35 a.m. local time.
