"Do the Dems realize that most of the people not getting paid are Democrats?" December 27, 2018 8:16 am RL

Trump just tweeted:

Have the Democrats finally realized that we desperately need Border Security and a Wall on the Southern Border. Need to stop Drugs, Human Trafficking,Gang Members & Criminals from coming into our Country. Do the Dems realize that most of the people not getting paid are Democrats?

So he views shutting down the government as a way to punish democratic voters? Just days after claiming most federal workers supported shutting down the government to get a wall…

Most AMERICANS are democrats- as evidenced by the popular vote in 2016, and the numbers have only grown with the past 2 years…
Do Trump supporters not see the danger in this? The very grave danger for them?
We should not negotiate with terrorists.
Payback will be a bitch…

“This is outrageous,” Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-Va.) said in a tweet. “Federal employees don’t go to work wearing red or blue jerseys. They’re public servants. And the President is treating them like poker chips at one of his failed casinos.”

Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) sounded a similar note, saying that federal employees affected by the shutdown “work for the FBI & TSA (not GOP or DNC).”

“They signed up to protect us & work for America regardless of party,” she said in a tweet.

A recent CNN poll showed that 61 percent of respondents oppose building a border wall without any funding from Mexico. Only 33 percent of respondents support such a plan, including 75 percent of Republicans, 32 percent of independents and just 4 percent of Democrats.
