Washington (AP) – Thursday morning, when thousands of federal employees stayed at home and faced the government’s closure with possible dismissal, President Donald Trump allowed the social media to work.
He began sharing the praise of sponsors. He then falsely stated that “Democrats want to give your health care money to illegal foreigners.” And then he announced he would meet his top -notch advisor to find out where to reduce the federal programs that are “political fraudsters”.
Everything that was up to 8 o’clock in the morning is only one snowstorm during the presidential comment, when the government’s closure began on the second day. Like many other generations, when he faces difficult crises without easy decisions, it seems short is determined to declare his way.
The flow and trolling flow was great for a 79 -year -old president, who is as chronically online as any Gen Z member. His style is reflected in the rest of his administration, which so far seems more interested in mockery and intimidating democrats rather than negotiations with them.
Government sites include pop -ups accusing the “radical left” for closing, unusually political message, supposedly non -partisan agencies. When journalists email By email to the White House Press Service, they receive an automated response that accused the slow answers to the “lack of staff resulting from the closure of the Democrats”.
The Trump White House is used to making political reports that continue their aggressive style since last year’s campaign, which critics describe as gloomy and vengeful. The administration rarely misses the ability to enter the skin of its opponents.
The President chose a similar approach to the last closure of the Government, which began in 2018. December And lasted until 2019. January During your first term. On the 30th of that closing day, Politico collected 40 Trump tweet, including a complaint that the then chairwoman of the house, Nancy Pelos, had behaved “so irrationally” and gratitude to the federal employees for “so hard to work in your country and did not receive salary.”
The Trump then accepted most of the guilt, with an associated press “-Norc” survey showed about 7 out of 10 Americans, saying he had a “lot” or “pretty much” responsibility. Finally, he supported his claim for border funding and signed legislation to allow the Government to renew.
All you have to do is see who will face the most this time. Democrats say they will not vote for any expenditure laws unless they extend the healthcare subsidies used for the purchase of affordable supervision law, which are planned to be completed at the end of the year. Republicans blame them for obstructionist for demanding that government operations should be funded and other policy conditions are negotiated separately.
A recent survey of the New York Times/Wall, which was conducted before the closure, found that slightly more registered voters blame the short and Republican Congress than Democrats. About a third said they blame both sides equally.
A one -day text reporting survey of The Washington Post on October 1 was another red flag for Trump. The results showed that 47% of the Americans said they believed the Congress president and Republicans were mostly guilty compared to 30% of the Congress Democrats.
It seems like a short determination to move the needle – or at least blow a little steam – with its own account “True Social” – the social media platform, which was founded after he was banned from Twitter after 2021. January 6, an attacker against the US capitol.
The president’s drag began on Monday after the Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer and the home minority leader Hakeem Jeffries met with a short and Republican White House. Trump published a deep video of legislators in which Schumer says, “No one likes Democrats.” Jeffries was depicted with a cartoon and a mustache.
“This is a creepy video, and we will continue to explain that heroism will not be nowhere,” Jeffries told MSNBC this week.
Trump announced its appearance clip, but with the Mariachi Music soundtrack. Sombrero and mustache also returned.
“Every day, Democrats are stopping the government, Sombrero becomes 10 times larger,” the White House wrote in social media.
Hours before the closure on Tuesday night, the president posted photos from his meeting with Jeffries and Schumer. The photos included a red “Trump 2028” hat on a decisive table in the oval cabinet, nodded to talk about a non -constitutional third term.
Trump had no public shows on Thursday. The event of the National Spanish heritage month was delayed due to closure.
The White House did not answer questions about how he tried to resolve the situation. However, for at least a few hours, the short social media account was silent.
