"The shutdown has been pretty damaging, you know, not yet because it's early, but it gets a little bit worse as it goes along. And we'll be making cuts that are permanent. And we're only gonna cut Democrat programs, I hate to tell you. I guess that makes sense. But we're cutting Democrat programs. We are going to start that."
"Meanwhile, the Democratic shutdown is causing pain and suffering for hardworking American,s including our military, our air traffic controllers, impoverished mothers, people with young children, people that have to live not the greatest of lives, Trump continued. But we are doing so many tax cutswe've cut their taxes at levels nobody's ever seen. Trump listed off provisions of the Big Beautiful Bill, including no tax on tips, social security, and overtime pay, saying, It's been great for a lot of people. They are doing great."
Democrats refused to back down on health care during a government shutdown entering its second week. A congressional invitation to negotiate was framed as a leadership shift involving Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Hakeem Jeffries. The shutdown was characterized as causing pain for military personnel, air traffic controllers, impoverished mothers, and families with young children. Recent tax legislation was credited with eliminating taxes on tips, Social Security, and overtime pay and delivering broad benefits. Plans were announced to implement permanent cuts targeted at Democratic programs if the shutdown continued. Senate opposition was portrayed as driven by partisan interests and recent electoral losses.
