Trump Says Shutdown Should Happen on Biden's Watch, Not His
Briefly

President-elect Donald J. Trump claimed that the potential government shutdown is primarily President Biden's responsibility, as he attempts to shift blame away from himself.
Trump urged Republicans to reject a bipartisan spending deal, leading Congress toward a crisis, while simultaneously positioning Biden as the one to face the fallout.
In a proactive measure to avoid direct accountability, Trump suggested a Republican bill to suspend the debt limit, which faced significant opposition from his party's conservatives.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre accused Trump of orchestrating the shutdown and emphasized the need for a bipartisan agreement to prevent the crisis.
