The government remained shut down on day 39 as Republicans and Democrats struggled to reach an agreement. President Donald Trump dismissed extending Affordable Care Act tax credits, calling the system "the worst Healthcare anywhere in the world" and suggested sending money directly to people to buy insurance.
