Trump and MAGA FALL APART as SHUTDOWN BREAKS THEM - Meidas Touch
As week two of the Trump/Republican government shutdown grinds on...Speaker Mike Johnson gives his congressional representatives another taxpayer funded vacation...while Trump throws out threats and deep fake videos. Oh, and he golfs. The Republicans are not demonstrating any seriousness at all about negotiating a deal with Democrats to end the shutdown.
