Rep. Morgan McGarvey: No Way You Can Blame Dems for Government Shutdown

‘They‘re the ones right now saying we have a mandate, we don‘t need any help’

EXCERPT:

BOLDUAN: “Are you ready for Democrats to accept the blame, to face blame for a shutdown if it happens?”
MCGARVEY: “I don't think there's any way you can -- you can blame us. You know, Donald Trump goes around right now saying constantly, I have a mandate, I have a mandate. Listen to Speaker Johnson, he says we have a mandate. Listen to the Senate Republicans, they talk about the mandate they have. You know, Democrats have always been willing to work with the Republicans on a budget, on making sure that we keep the government open and protecting the American people. They're the ones right now saying we have a mandate. We don't need any help. Look, you know, that is we're going to continue to work. We're going to continue to be available to work to make sure that we have a responsible budget that takes care of the needs of the American people.”
