Trump and Co looking to wriggle out from under a law he signed that workers get back pay under a shutdown. Also, what terrible messaging. Good luck to the Republicans running in VA, LOL.

Asked about the White House's position on back pay, President Donald Trump told reporters, "I would say it depends on who we’re talking about."

He added: "For the most part, we’re going to take care of our people. There are some people that really don’t deserve to be taken care of, and we’ll take care of them in a different way."

Gee i wonder what he means by “our people”, and “some people”. Not at all how a proper president should speak.

Oh, look, they have the decorum not to squarely place the blame on the Radical Right-Wing Republicans who are directly responsible for it.
