Former President Donald Trump blasted Republicans in a post on Truth Social as members of Congress scramble to negotiate a budget to keep the government in operation, calling on them to “shut it down.”
“The Republicans lost big on Debt Ceiling, got NOTHING, and now are worried that they will be BLAMED for the Budget Shutdown. Wrong!!! Whoever is President will be blamed, in this case, Crooked (as Hell!) Joe Biden!” he wrote, referring to House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s (R-Calif.) repeated imploring of House Republicans to avert a shutdown.
