A “Democrat Shutdown." Really? Memories don't fade THAT quickly. Let’s remember that time you went on live TV & said you’d be “proud” to shut down govt. over your costly bumper-sticker boondoggle wall. #TrumpShutdown

Last government shutdown cost us $24B and 120,000 jobs. This is not something to play politics with. This is people’s ability to pay their mortgage. Buy their kids Christmas presents. Put food on their table. It’s 800,000 lives being thrown into chaos -- over a pointless wall.
