Rep. Jim McGovern: Government Shutdown is Because Trump 'Went Off His Meds'

by Julio Rosas | Dec 28th, 2018, 10:40 am

While speaking with Fox News’ Peter Doocy on Capitol Hill, Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) said he believes Congress was on the verge of making a deal to keep the government funded until President Donald Trump “went off his meds.”

“I think it’s an embarrassment anytime the government shuts down, and this being no exception,” McGovern said on Friday.

“We gotta work at it until we get to an agreement where a majority say yes,” he continued. “We had that until the President, you know, went off his meds and who the hell knows what happens.”

The partial government has now entered its sixth day as lawmakers and the Trump haggle over funding for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.

He pulled the plug because hate radio and fox and friends told him too. They are using the first amendment to essentially dictate government policy which is a bastardization of our freedoms that should terrify every American.
