Trump has now overseen the two longest government shutdowns in history — with the current one reaching 36 days.
He ran on fixing a broken system and helping working people.
Instead, he’s making the system even worse and shafting working people by gutting the social safety net.

Consider the policy slate: British residents with settled status should be deported. We should guard against demographic change by increasing birthrates instead of migration. The special treatment for minorities in a “two-tier” justice system must end.
