Does his statement also apply to Obama during the 2013 shutdown?

Do you really want to play this game? Because during a government shutdown over border security and the importance of funding a wall, we can play this game.

Answer my question. Does that also apply to Obama in 2013?

I just want to see if you're consistent.

Do you believe that? Seriously, is this a belief you hold dearly?

I'll take that as you're just a hypocrite. Not surprising.

See, it's always Congress' fault when the shutdown happens with a Democratic President, but a shutdown is always the President's fault when he's a Republican.

Because reasons.

Unfortunately for you, the American public is blaming the Democrats for the shutdown. Sucks when you don't hold office.

I'm glad you finally answered instead of being a twat. However, the President doesn't control spending. Congress does.

I guess time will tell. I'm not furloughed and a wall is nothing to me. But this is reality and in reality this statement was made: “I am proud to shut down the government for border security, Chuck. … I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down. I’m not going to blame you for it.”

Only in a Trumpkins mind was this statement not made on national TV and does not exist.

Trump won't sign anything that doesn't pay for the couple hundred miles of wall. Doesn't make sense to me but oh well.
